Linda started working at Workshops, Inc. in 1975. She loves working at Workshops, Inc., but it's probably her second love - her first is rock & roll! Kathy Dunn, our Director of Operations, grew up visiting her grandmother in Gate City, where Linda grew up. She remembers Linda getting on the bus with a boom box on her shoulder, blaring music for the whole neighborhood. Eventually (and thankfully), Linda graduated to a Walkman and now listens to her beloved music through an iPod.
For 44 years Linda has been an important part of Workshops - completing handwork for local companies gives Linda a sense of pride and purpose as well as a paycheck. Linda works in both our Light Assembly and Industrial Assembly departments,and you can most often find her working on Birmingham Fastener's nut and bolt assembly. Come visit us at Workshops and you'll find Linda with a big smile on her face because no matter the task, Linda loves Workshops. And we love Linda!
