We Are Metropolis” Reflection

Here at Metropolis we know we have an incredible staff, and yet they never cease to amaze us. After our recent Dear Blogary article by our Founder and President, Marty Lobb, our team responded and we’d like to share a few of their thoughts with you now.

“The first time I heard the phrase, “We Are Metropolis” was when I came aboard to work for Metropolis in January of this year. It was also my first in attending the All Staff meetings, which are done every month by the founders of our company. I can truly say after being here with the team that “We Are Metropolis”…it’s what we live and breathe. After twenty-four years in management, I could not be prouder than to work for a more caring and understanding company. Metropolis is sincerely true to their homeowners and their employees.”

And in keeping with just how we think and strive to achieve here at Metropolis, Cherie reminded us of “Do It Anyway” attributed by Mother Teresa.

People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered.

Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives.

Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you.

Be honest and sincere anyway.

What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous.

Be happy anyway.

The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.

Give the best you have, and it will never be enough.

Give your best anyway.

In the final analysis, it is between you and God.

It was never between you and them anyway.

Each day is not without it’s challenges, impossible deadlines, even an unhappy client to somehow bring around but what we count on and know for sure, is that if you have the right team, it will all be overcome and we are always open to learning along the way.
