Congratulations to Adam Buchmeier, Field Services Technician, on being named Socket’s You-Make-The-Difference award winner for July!

Adam has a long history of working in telecom – in fact, he remembers working with Socket as a business customer back when we only offered dial-up! After hearing about Socket’s fiber expansion in Callaway County, Adam decided that Socket would be a good place to jump back into the industry, and he’s been with us ever since.

“Adam is awesome!” said a coworker who nominated him for the award. “He's always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone who needs it, coworker or customer.”

"He's a very respectful and knowledgeable man, and he trained me with confidence," said another.

When he’s not installing service for Socket’s new customers, Adam enjoys tinkering with lawnmowers, refurbishing old furniture, and spending time with his family, including his 13-year-old granddaughter. He also spoils his 16-year-old Labrador, Jude, the “smartest dog ever.”

“My favorite part of working at Socket is the customers, hands down,” said Adam. “I really enjoy going out there and making them happy.”

Congratulations, Adam!
