The Aussi Story…. Kangaroo Jack




This story just surfaced from our Rochester office. It bears witness to the fact that CPGworks places people from all over the world, even Aussi’s!

Being a native Chicagoan, when I met James McMahon, I had to say “Wow, Jim McMahon!”
I was quickly corrected. He is not from Chicago, but Australia, NOT an American football fan, and says a “Jim” is where you go to work out. James is the name.
I still try, and though James is a happy, always laughing Aussie, “Jim” is just not allowed.

He interviewed easily, great attitude, and started the next day at Acquest Rochester. He was instantly nicknamed, Kangaroo Jack.
He is a great drywall hanger, and an easy guy to move around…doesn’t mind filling in here and there…always happy.
He has told me several times how much he loves going to work. “It’s like a family…a big, messy family of guys”, he says.
He’s planning a big summer barbecue at his house just for his “family”.
Nicknames are a big part of this family, and with a flattering invite to the barbecue, I even got one.
