Employee of the Month-Truck City

Our Employee of the Month over at Buda’s Truck City is Mr. McKinley Holland. McKinley started with us at Leif Johnson in 2011 and transferred to Truck City back in August. He absolutely loves that working here has taught him so much about working on different types of vehicles. His coworkers attribute his Employee of the Month title to the fact that he is a “team player.” On top of that, Holland says he has a photographic memory and can rattle off base numbers “like candy!”– A great skill to have when working over in the parts department! When McKinley is not at work, he loves to play the guitar. He’s been playing for about five years now and says that he’s “always been a musician.” A musician and a mechanic, McKinley is clearly a man of many talents! We couldn’t be happier to have him as part of our team over at Truck City.

Leif Johnson Employee of the Month: Austin Kinsey

Congratulations to Austin Kinsey for being named the Leif Johnson employee of the month! Austin has with been Leif for nearly a year as a Body Shop Porter at our Round Rock Collision Center location! Austin’s work ethic and his efforts to always go above and beyond are amongst the reasons he was perfect for our Employee of the Month title. “Cutting metal”, “Driving nice trucks” and the “benefits” are three of his favorite things about working at Leif. When he’s not at work, he loves to play video games (He’s a ranked “pvp-er”, which is computer talk for a video-gaming pro!), and hang out with his two kiddos. We are so thankful to have hard-working, fun and helpful employees like Austin Kinsey with us at Leif Johnson Ford!

Riata Ford Employee Of The Month–Penny Torres

Riata’s newest Employee of the Month is our lovely receptionist Penny Torres! A very busy lady, Penny can be found doing everything from greeting customers to answering phone calls to helping decorate for Christmas–and she’s never seen without a smile on her face! Always cheerful, kind and outgoing, it is no surprise that Penny was chosen as our newest Employee of the Month. She happily listed many things when asked what her favorite part of working at Riata. “Getting to talk to all of the people. Everyone is so good to me. It’s the first job I’ve had that I actually like getting up for. I look forward to it.” Outside of work, Penny enjoys hanging out with her grandkids; She has four grandaughters and is eagerly anticipating her first grandson arriving in March. As for unique hobbies, she absolutely loves collecting Boyds Bears. So far, she’s collected over one-hundred bears and has even had the chance to visit to to visit the Boyds Bear factory in Pennsylvania. We definitely love Penny just as much as she loves working …
