Roger Sizemore has been selected as ‘Rima’s January Worker of the Month. Roger joined the Rima Team on February 15, 1988 as an Acme Operator. In September 1993, Roger moved to the Index Team. In August 1997 he moved to New Projects Set Up Leader in Index. From there, Roger moved to Supervision in the Automatics and served in this capacity from August 2000 until his latest move in October 2005 Roger accepted the position of Rima’s Estimator.

Roger was nominated for the Worker of the Month honor by Debi Odette. “Roger does a great job of matching our processes with customer expectations. He can easily determine whether or not our machines are capable of producing parts as required. Roger is a vast wealth of machining knowledge and understands his skill very well. An important part of understanding your skill level is admitting when the technical requirements exceed your expertise. Roger is not afraid to admit when he needs help and on those occasions, Roger works well with the cell technicians to determine our capabilities. It is for these reasons we can trust every quote produced by Roger.”

Production Manager, Rick Davis agreed. “Having Roger as the Estimator is a good fit with his machining knowledge and knowing what machines to quote the work on to run its best is a good match. Roger’s machining abilities are a huge plus, because he knows what it takes to run the parts through the process from start to finish. It is a good feeling knowing that Roger will be quoting the work for us as if he had to run it himself. Keep  up the good work Roger You are doing a great job!”’

Production Manager, Tim Stanley added. “Roger is a great team member. He talks to the technicians and the operators and uses their information and input to formalize the quotes. He is very knowledgeable about all facets of machining. The respect and trust that Roger has built is part of why he is so effective in his role. The Machining Area is glad to be on the same team as Roger.”

APQP Leader, Kristi Galvan reiterated, “I’ve worked with Roger for several years now. Roger is a very hard worker. He is very thorough and always wants to make sure he does the best job possible. Roger is a pleasure to work with and I think that he is very deserving of this honor. Congratulations Roger!”

Roger and Kay reside in Adrian. They have five children and seven grandchildren.
