Saying Goodbye

The Bittersweet Farewell: A Look at My Time with Barrier Pest Control

My Humble Beginnings with Barrier

My tenure at Barrier Pest Control feels like an epic journey etched into the essence of who I am. It’s been 5 1/2 years of absolute immersion into the world of pest control, a second home, and a family of its own. I remember when it all started – Marie and I huddled together in an office barely larger than a postage stamp. We took calls, and dealt with queries, all the while cultivating a bond that transcended the professional sphere.

Fast forward to today, we’ve migrated to a different location, boasting our own offices and a tripling in-office staff. Change is the only constant, they say, and at Barrier, we embody that philosophy. But our promise to our customers has never wavered, always at the heart of everything we do.

Our Customer-Focused Ethos

Reflecting on our journey, the brightest beacon in my memory is our unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction. It’s been the guiding light for the Barrier family, echoed from the top down. From our owners to every team member, we’ve continuously bent over backward to ensure our customers are more than just satisfied; they’re delighted!

The result? An ever-growing customer base, a large portion of which is thanks to the best form of advertising – word of mouth. Every friend or family member referred is a testament to the quality of service we offer, a badge of honor we proudly wear.

Integrity at the Helm

What sets Barrier Pest Control apart is the leadership – our owners, our captains. Their integrity is the lifeblood of our company. They are honest, generous, and strive to do the right thing. They inspire, setting the bar higher than any other company I’ve enjoyed working with.

We are more than just a pest control service, we’re a company with a heart. We go out of our way to make things right, even when there’s no tangible gain. That’s the kind of employer I’ve loved working for. Isn’t it the kind of company you’d want to hire?

My Reluctant Farewell

As I bid adieu, it’s not without a heavy heart. I will miss being the ‘mother hen’ of the billing department, interacting with our amazing customers, and even the quirky calls (yes, the lady who thought we were “Bury a Pet” instead of Barrier Pest, that was a memorable day!).

I’ll miss creating fun videos (remember “Barrier’s The Office Spoof”? Do check it out on YouTube!) and the everyday banter with my team. The people make a workplace, and at Barrier Pest Control, we’re not just colleagues but family.

So, here’s to Barrier Pest Control, a remarkable journey I will forever hold dear. And for all of you dealing with pest problems, remember Barrier Pest Control – we’re not just a service. We’re a partner you can trust.
