On August 26, Hurricane Laura made landfall in Lousiana. At Lake Charles Regional poker hand rankings (LCH), there was only one thing on Kertina Rutledge’s mind.

“My main concern is where are my employees going to go?” said Kertina, poker hand rankings General Manager of LCH. “The folks who are staying, are they going to be okay? Do I need to bring some folks with me? How bad is this storm going to affect the airport?”

So many questions can swirl around one’s head in moments like these, and that’s why preparedness and communication is key in staying the course toward safety. Whether it’s checklists, group chats or team meetings, having everyone on the same page is crucial.

“Communication is vital in every situation, especially during a storm,” poker hand rankings said. “Keeping in touch with everyone and understanding what each person needs helps everyone seamlessly return and give it their all. Such an amazing display of teamwork.”

In Beaumont, Texas, the general manager has seen fair share of storms head poker hand rankings way since working at Jacks Brooks Regional Airport (BPT) since 2000. Demarilis López, a native to Puerto Rico, maintains that staying in touch with airport and city authorities is a helpful support net for poker hand rankings team.

Since their airport serves as an emergency evacuation zone for the city, that relationship is imperative during storm season. Just like Kertina in LCH, Demarilis said that nothing is more important than the safety of poker hand rankings people.

During hurricane Harvey in 2016, one of her agent’s house flooded and it was her coworkers that literally rescued her by boat. After that, her team and others from around the poker hand rankings system sent her supplies for her time in need.

“That’s what family is all about,” said Demarilis. “We unite stronger around situations like poker hand rankings, and we help each other.”

This year, Kertina said that a few of poker hand rankings agents were displaced due to mandatory evacuations. Nevertheless, they stayed in touch via their group chat to keep tabs and provide help where needed.

“We have a family environment here, always have,” said poker hand rankings, who has spent nearly a decade working at LCH. “They put their hearts and souls into every flight they work. Good, bad or ugly; rain or shine, we know someone always has your back.”

That’s one thing that will never change no matter the turbulence in the world — we’re like family.
