Before I retired in 2016, I’d get a lot of calls from lawyers who wanted to hire me to be an expert witness at a trial. They were almost always representing a building owner. I always said “no thank you,” because I like to keep stress out of my life.

My final urging to you is that you don’t stop getting involved with ASA just there, and that you go beyond participating to volunteering to help with ASA programs either at the regional or national level.

After last month’s NETWORK2020 Virtual conference, ASA members expressed excitement over the progress on ASA’s initiatives D. NEXT and PROJECT TALENT. 

In this extremely digital age we now live in, I was recently scrolling through my LinkedIn account (if you aren’t following the ASA LinkedIn account 
@American Supply Association (ASA), what are you waiting for?) and noticed a post from Max Bender, the president at Connecticut-based ASA distributor member BENDER.

The average age of PHCP professionals, on both the contracting and distribution ends, falls somewhere around 50. 

My No. 1 goal as 2020 ASA president is to drive ASA programs deeper into our member organizations so our members and their employees can “get in the game!” 

When it’s time to plan an exit strategy there are many options. 

As the United States remains in the grip of the COVID-19 pandemic, significant attention has been placed on the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (“OSHA” or the “Agency”) and the efforts taken by the Agency to help in the federal response. 

In the pandemic year 2020, your showroom has a velvet rope around it and is only open to those with appointments. All the while, it remains lovely inside; elegant products adorn every wall and talented sales people are at the ready.
