Coworker Spotlight: Kyle Uskevich

In 2003 a young college student from Tacoma who worked at Abbey Carpet got accepted to the University of Washington in their geography department. After picking up tile from Statements for many years he decided he wanted to work here and asked Tony if they were hiring. Tony was hiring part time and that is how Kyle Uskevich came to Statements. “His last name may sound Russian but it starts with U-S,” says Nate about Kyle. It is reasons like Nate and the other guys who work in the warehouse that make Kyle enjoy his job so much. He considers the warehouse physically demanding and enjoys being able to work with fun people in a positive environment. The physical part of his job should be something he likes considering one of his hobbies is weight lifting. He also really enjoys golf and learning. His love of golf could be one of the reasons Kyle enjoys living in the Northwest. Being a native Seattleite, who grew up in West Seattle, Kyle really enjoys the many seasons the Northwest has to offer. He likes that he can snowboard in the winter and enjoy water sports and golf in the summer.

As many may know Kyle is getting married, but as many may not know a date has been set! On August 2nd. Kyle will marry Mattea in Ballard. At this point Kyle is very excited about the wedding and can’t wait for August 2nd to come. Its Kyles excitement and anticipation and his positive attitude that always keep a smile on his face and a kind greeting, even first thing in the morning no matter how tired he is.

Let’s Compost!

In an effort to be more ‘green’, more sustainable and to reduce our footprint as a company, we are not only recycling here at Statements, we are now composting.

Now you can put all food scraps, coffee and coffee filters, paper plates, paper towels (which have been used in the kitchen) napkins, pizza delivery boxes, and uncoated paper take-out containers in our compost bins. These small bins are lined with biodegradable liners and can be found underneath each of the kitchen sinks. Instead of dumping your leftover food scraps in the garbage, please dump them in the compost bins. Each bag of food that we compost is turned back into the soil for a richer earth!

For more information on what is compostable and how to compost in Seattle, click here.

Thanks everyone. I appreciate your efforts in making this happen!
