Jeanie Ford
Shipping Department – Marceline, Missouri
At Walsworth, my title is Traffic Coordinator. I ensure our customers receive their product in a timely manner. In previous departments, I operated as a press clerk, CSR assistant, and I worked in scheduling.
In my day-to-day work, I work directly with the CSRs, our carriers, and employees within numerous departments
My love of books brought me to Walsworth!
I started my career in 1998, so I have been with Walsworth for about 24 years.
From childhood to adulthood, my favorite memories are from the annual Walsworth picnics. As a child, my mother worked at Walsworth so I was able to go. Now my children are attending.
What I love most about my job is the people I get to work with every day. My co-workers are awesome!
A fun memory I have from working in the Press Department is joking around with new hires. We would send the new hire to another department and ask for a Paper Stretcher. That department would send them to another.
If I had a personalized coffee mug at work, it would say, “Not today.”
When I’m not at work, I enjoy reading and planning fun activities with my kids.
I have three children, Cheyenne, Laura and Sam. We have a border collie named Luna, two cats named Whispers and Phoenix, and a bearded dragon named Spike.
Walsworth has allowed me to raise my children in a great community. My daughter Cheyenne was chosen as a Walsworth scholarship recipient.
I like to give back to my community by volunteering at sporting events.
