CARMEN WORKS FOR TECK THROUGH WENDY WEDGE
After Carmen and I were married I started my landscaping business. It made sense that Carmen would come along and help me when she had time. Carmen often helped me at The Hollies and as my business clientele grew she would assist me with those places as well. Carmen had finished her college education at Northwest and graduated with a diploma. She was on the lookout for a job but was still out of luck. Little did we know that one day while Carmen was helping me at a client's home...things would change, she would be drawn in even closer to the house known as The Hollies.
My client's home belonged to Wendy Wedge who was Dr. Keevil's niece. She worked at Teck Mining Group which was Dr. Keevil's company. Wendy saw Carmen working in her garden and figured Carmen could do better than being a gardener's helper. Carmen applied and soon had an entry level job with Teck in the mailroom.
(insert some experiences Carmen had at Teck)
During December the Teck Mining corporation would host an annual elaborate and elegant Christmas party, held at the Four Seasons hotel, no expense was spared. I personally enjoyed the large prawns served on ice and people watching. Carmen knew a few of the attendees but generally we kept to ourselves. Everyone was dressed to the nines. There was the formal six course meal, unlimited drinks, dancing and the usual obligatory short report of the well being of the company.
