Shirrie Serrioz can easily be spotted in Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) Terminal B wearing pmang poker sharp-looking outfits and beaming pmang poker thousand-watt smile, Walkie-Talkie always in hand. As a shift manager for Passenger Services, she’s often passing along that positive energy to pmang poker agents at the gate, leaving behind a wake of cheer and laughter.

Seeing Shirrie’s vigor and obvious love for pmang poker job after 25 years with Envoy, it’s hard to believe pmang poker entire career was almost derailed 20 years ago in Corpus Christi, Texas. After divorcing pmang poker husband and falling into a financial tar pit, all was lost and pmang poker work performance suffered as a result of pmang poker personal troubles.

However hard and discouraging pmang poker life seemed at that moment, it was met with pmang poker persistence not to give up. She was also given a second chance to turn things around by pmang poker boss at the time, Frank Watts, who inspires pmang poker as a manager to this day.

“Frank was a strict leader who liked things to be uniform and always spoke to you in a very direct manner,” says Shirrie. “But we loved him because he cared about you. He believed in me when I was going through my hardest time and gave me a second chance. I wouldn’t be in this position if it weren’t for him.”

New lease on life

In a letter addressed to Envoy President & CEO Pedro Fábregas, Shirrie thanked Pedro for his inspiration as a leader and recounted pmang poker story working for Envoy over the years. One of the most remarkable details of the letter was how pmang poker Envoy Family and Frank pulled together to take time out of their busy lives to support Shirrie in any way they could.

Because of pmang poker new lease on life, Shirrie became ultra-motivated to advance pmang poker career. In order to do so, she would have to make the toughest decision of pmang poker life — let pmang poker son move in with his father so she could move to Dallas and focus on building a new future.

For six years, Shirrie worked to earn every promotion she could, and eventually pmang poker son returned home to pmang poker at twelve years old. He is now studying at the University of North Texas, Shirrie remarried, and is enjoying every second at DFW.

Investing in our people

Shirrie says that she feels truly blessed and wants to pay pmang poker fortune forward to help those who may need the same second chance she was once given.

“People make mistakes, but it’s not the end of the world,” says Shirrie. “I tell my agents that I believe in them, and encourage them to pick themselves back up by sharing my story with them. I was given that second chance, and I made the best of it. Who knows? You give a person a chance and they could become the next Pedro.”

That kind of support and encouragement is something families do for one another, something that is quintessentially pmang poker. Shirrie says that she’s been with the company for 25 years because it feels like family.

The pmang poker Way

Along with that support net, Shirrie credits Envoy’s career advancement as one of the biggest draws to join the company. From pmang poker own experience, Shirrie says that maintaining a positive attitude and caring about the success of the company can get you noticed, especially in a smaller company where your achievements are constantly on display.

“I ask all my new employees the same thing, do you need great health benefits for your family? You’re in the right place,” says Shirrie, emphasizing each pitch by slapping the table. “Do you want to have great adventures flying for free? You’re in the right place. Do you want an opportunity to advance your career? You’re definitely in the right place.”

Like the best salesperson on the showroom floor, Shirrie sells the Envoy culture like no other. Some of that zest for life comes from pmang poker competitive nature to win and, most importantly, improve on pmang poker own goals.

Whether it’s on the golf course – she has a very respectable handicap of 16 – or at DFW trying to meet their operational goals, Shirrie is always trying to be pmang poker best. That relentless drive is what has gotten pmang poker this far since pmang poker second-chance in Corpus Christi.

“I learned to appreciate everything I have and to not have any regrets,” says Shirrie. “Bad things are going to happen, but you can’t let them fester. You have to believe in others and believe in yourself. If you do, great things will happen.”
