OATS, Inc. Celebrates Saline County Driver for 15 Years of Service
March 1, 2010
It was 1995 when Corrine Wallace began her career with OATS. Her children were grown and had moved out on their own, and Corrine wanted something to do full time. She spoke to a friend who was working for OATS, and he convinced her it was a place she would enjoy.
Enjoy it Corrine does. She likes the driving, and she likes the people – those she works
with and those she serves. “I talk to them a lot - I enjoy talking and visiting” says Corrine, recounting memories of her days driving the hospital runs. She always took into consideration that passengers might not be feeling well, or could be down about their illness. Corrine always made time to talk with them, to help them feel better and relax. “One lady didn’t know if she was going to make it - and I said, ‘why don't you give therapy a try and see?’ That made her relax and she tried it and is doing well now.”
When not at work, Corrine likes to spend her time crocheting, and whenever possible, visiting with her family. She feels that OATS is a good company to work for. “The people are nice, they keep you busy - I really like working for OATS.”
Tracy Walkup, Midwest Regional Director for OATS says “Corrine is a perfect example of the caring and patient associates we strive to hire. Her dedication and service are greatly appreciated.”
