Chris
Beginning in 1993 as a restaurant kitchen hood cleaner 11 years on the night shift. I learned a few things from restaurant owners and managers. If you show up when you are supposed to, clean it properly, and if you move it put it back when you are finished. Treat people fairly and you will always have work. I always have. Receiving my Extinguisher license in 2000, my Systems license in 2005, and my Firm license in 2007.
“Whether it’s a servicing a portable fire extinguisher, installing a restaurant hood system, or upgrading an exiting system, I’ve always tried to take care of my customers.”

James then shifted his focus becoming a vital part of Development and organization of Humble Hog on Gay Street in Knoxville. James finally finished his restaurant career by helping and old friend and co worker at Bit Burger stabilizing their workforce.
