Every month, Socket employees nominate and vote on a co-worker who best exemplifies our Core Values and Beliefs.

This month, we picked Zac Cutler, from the Customer Care and Fulfillment department. He’s been working in our Business Center for little over a year now, managing various accounts and ensuring customer satisfaction.

Many of his co-workers described his patience, with both customers and fellow employees, as something close to miraculous.

On June 15th and 16th, Socket representatives were busy hitting the bricks at the annual Fulton Street Fair in Fulton, MO.

We had a lot of fun handing out balloons and candy. Next year we'll try investing in some posters that don't act like giant sails, though. They can be difficult to catch in high winds!

We were excited to be able to talk to Fulton residents, many of whom have been watching crews construct our new Fiber network. People were anxious to see if their homes were in our service area, and when construction in their area would start.

Our company has started down the road of pursuing the Missouri Quality Award. The basis for this program comes from the Baldrige National Quality Award program, named after Malcolm Baldrige, the Secretary of Commerce in Ronald Reagan’s administration. This program helps American companies improve and compete by defining best practices and establishing criteria for evaluating improvement efforts.
