Few things speak of Helena’s vitality and bright future quite so much as the recogni-tion of the Queen City as a viable market for expansion, by nationally lauded businesses. It is this very belief, that Helena is a community on the rise, which brings to us the city’s newest restaurant off ering: Panda Express. Chadwick Haight, manager for the newest franchise of this 30-year established chain, is full of nothing but excitement for the oppor-tunities off ered, by his employer. “I’m from Helena. I went to Helena Middle School and Helena High School. It’s exciting to come back. I spent some time with Qwest and Radio Shack, then Panda Express reached out and recruited me out of Kalispell. Th en I spent some time working for them in Spokane, before they off ered me this opportunity.” With four Montana locations, two in Billings and one in Kalispell - along with over 1600 locations nationwide and even internationally – Panda Express provides fresh vegetables and sauces made in-house, elements of modern and upscale dining, all in a casual restaurant envi-ronment. “Fast-casual is what we consider our-selves. We are the fastest growing chain in that fast-casual category, right now,” says Haight. Helena’s Panda Express is a new model for the chain, removing the iconic bright colors and semi-oriental styled façade, in favor of sharp, modern-looking angles and decor, revised

architectural styling, and a more natural color scheme. “It’s part of a sort of rebranding. Th e only thing that’s the same in this store, from the other stores, is my cooking range. Th is is just so diff erent, I love it.”“Well, Panda Express is an amazing organiza-tion,” Haight comments, on his time with the company. “It actually started as the Panda Inn. Our owner, Andrew, started it as a higher-end restaurant. He got a request from a local mall to work on a little bit smaller version, in the mall and that’s where Panda Express was born. “ Chadwick continues, “Th ey [Andrew and his wife Peggy] are still very active in the compa-ny. For every manager with Panda Express,

there’s a rigorous training process, obviously. As part of that, they all end up going down to California and meeting with Andrew, because he wants to make sure they share the commit-ment to his vision. Really, that’s about taking care of people. Th ey’re taking the time to meet with the people in the company.” But just what all is involved, in that vision? “’Living the Panda Way,’ is what we call it,” he explains. “When it comes to people we off er them opportunities to continually grow. We’re always developing others, always teaching, always coaching. As a manager, my job is to take care of my people. It’s really great to be able to provide that kind of environment,” stated Chadwick. “In Helena, Panda’s mini-mum wage starts at $9 an hour. I wouldn’t pay anyone any less than that, because we work really hard. We’re really committed to growth, so it’s great to be able to provide that.”Beyond the in-house opportunities available to employees, Chadwick explains the involve-ment of Panda Express has with their resident communities through their charitable branch; Panda Cares. “Th e bell that you heard,” a bell had been ringing about two minutes earlier, “was because someone donated their change to the Children’s Miracle Network. Any donat-ed money stays here, locally. As part of our coming to Helena, we’ve actually set up close

to, I believe, twenty fund-raisers already, for local non-profi ts.” Chadwick speaks with growing enthusiasm, as he goes on. “So there are going to be days coming up, where people come in and mention their name [of that event’s charity], they’re going to get a percentage of that sale and we’re just going to give a big, fat check, to that organization. Again, all that money stays here.” One such event is coming up on Novem-ber 1st, benefi ting the Helena YMCA, less than two weeks aft er the store opened its doors. “We’re going to be giving them 20% of the sales. Anyone who comes in on the 1st, we’re just giving it all away to the YMCA. We have a couple of asso-ciates who really love the idea that we’re giving back to the community and they’re

out working with non-profi ts putting that all together. Anyone can go to pandaex-press.com/fundraisers and sign up and put on a fundraiser for themselves; clubs, organizations. If I had a fundraiser every day, I’d be the greatest manager in the world. Th at would be fantastic; it would make me so happy.”As our conversation came to an end, Chadwick eager to return to both his busy lunch-time crowd and to the support of his crew, he left me with the sentiment, “Th e great thing is that it [this Panda Ex-press store] is something completely new for Helena and Panda Express. It’s some-thing that is, obviously, really exciting. I hope to provide a diff erent level of quality here; I invite everyone to come down and give it a try.” I, did just that, and suggest you do the same. Visit them on the fi rst of November, enjoy a new dining expe-rience and, best of all, support our own Helena YMCA in the process.

Aft er one of my columns regard-ing shopping local, I received a couple of calls from residents

who expressed their frustration over customer service from some local businesses. I can relate to this because, unfortunately, there are businesses out there that do not place enough emphasis on treating their customers well and going the extra mile for them. Th e Chamber does customer service training with expert trainers at least once a year and yet, we never seem to reach the businesses that really need it. It’s sort of like parent-teacher confer-ences…….most of the time…………, the parents of kids who are struggling never attend them. Sometimes I’d like to walk into a business with a fl yer for training and announce “your employees need this training, badly!” But that certainly wouldn’t make for a pleasant visit and probably would be cause for them to not be happy with their chamber of commerce!Here’s some Hollywood quotes that seem to relate to customer service:From Cool Hand Luke, Strother Martin said “What we’ve got here is…..failure to communicate”. Communi-cation with your customers can make or break your business. Something to remember is that before you respond or communicate to a customer with a problem, you need to LISTEN! Hear them out before making a thoughtful response (that isn’t defensive!). Some-times they just want to know that their problem has been heard and recog-nized. Even if the customer is wrong, be courteous and have a solution that will make them happy and feel like they were important enough for you to work towards a solution or compro-mise.From the Terminator 2: Judgment Day – Arnold Schwarzenegger said: “Hasta la vista, baby”. Unfortunately, poor customer service can have a very lasting and far reaching eff ect. For some customers – treat me bad once and I’ll give you one more chance. For other customers, once is enough – they are through with you. For all who expe-rience poor customer service, they will tell a minimum of 7 other people of the experience. How many times those 7 people repeat it and how they decide to embellish the story can absolutely kill your business’ reputation.From Titanic with Leonardo DiCap-rio – “But this ship cannot sink” “She’s made of iron, sir!” “I assure you, she can……and she will. It is mathemat-ical certainty.” If you think you will succeed because your business is solid, has the best products, the best location and building and cannot fail………you could be wrong. One rude employee, one unhelpful employee, or one issue/problem that you mishandled as the owner/boss can “sink the ship”.From Forest Gump (Robin Wright) “Run Forest Run!” Just remember you can run but you cannot hide from not putting in the eff ort to continuously

train your staff for excellent custom-er service. It IS your biggest image (good, bad, or ugly…….!)From A Few Good Men ( Jack Nich-olson) “You can’t handle the truth!” Make sure that you CAN handle the truth so that you address each and every customer concern and issue. A customer who feels that their problem was correctly addressed and resolved will appreciate your eff orts and perhaps remain a loyal customer.Finally from Dead Poets Society (Rob-in Williams) “Carpe diem. Seize the day, boys, Make your lives extraordi-nary” - Seize the opportunity to make your customer service the absolute best it can be – make it and your business extraordinary!!! If you are out shopping and you re-ceive excellent service, be sure to thank the person who helped you. A note to the manager or owner is always nice if you have someone go out of their way for you. On the other hand, if you receive poor service, you should let the owner or manager know the specifi cs. If the manager doesn’t do anything about it or at least acknowledge it, you will then have to decide if you will patronize them in the future.One thing I learned from a Steve Beck customer service workshop that may make a big diff erence for the service you receive........make an eff ort to be friendly and nice to the person waiting on you at the very fi rst encounter - es-pecially if it appears they may be having a tough day. I have tried this in the check out line at the grocery store and it is surprising how the person seems to perk up with your interest and friendli-ness. So sometimes it is about being a good customer - being proactively nice to the clerk may result in a much better experience.Here’s a big SALUTE to those businesses that prioritize customer service!!! Th ey really do want your business!Cathy Burwell, President/CEO

It’s that time of year to make sure your Medicare Part D

prescription coverage will meet your needs for the coming New Year. What a pain! You mean I have to look at it every year? Yes! It’s crazy, but you really should, and the following is why.When the federal Rx plan was designed it was decided that private com-panies would administer the plans. But, they were not required to cover all medications available. Th e minimum require-ment was that they were to handle at least two medications in each cate-gory of meds. Th ey were also allowed to change which meds they handle from year to year, and even change mid-year in certain situations.Regretfully, each New Year, pharmacists have to inform some of their customers, that the drug they’ve been using is no longer covered by the plan they’re on, or that

their co-pay has changed. You can avoid this by doing some homework. I know you don’t like homework anymore than when you were a “youngin”. But, it is essential unless you enjoy surprises!Th is time of year the company that admin-isters your Part D plan should send you infor-mation on what meds their covering for the up-coming year. You should check this information carefully. You can also go to Medicare.gov and can do a search for drug plans available in your area. With this search you can enter your current med-

ications, and it will sort all plans available, and rank them based on your medication needs.Should you need to make a change, you can enroll online at Medicare.gov, or by calling the com-pany, or contacting a licensed agent.For most Medicare recipients the Federal Rx plan is a major help with their medication costs. But, they could have made it a whole lot simpler by requiring the administrating compa-nies to carry all meds available. Th e shuffl ing of meds available each year is unnecessary, and too much hassle, especially for those advanced in years with memory and cognition issues. Don’t forget now, you have till December 7th to make changes if you need too.

KIDS EAT FREE!WITH ADULT PURCHASE

EVERY WEDNESDAY4P - 10P

Aft er nine years of managing local franchises, Chris Rehor decided to pursue his own, locally-owned, restau-rant dream, without being subject to corporate infl uence, purchasing the Montana City Grill, which Rehor has owned and operated for the last eight years. He liked that the Grill was “two restaurants in one. You can enjoy a fi ne-dining experience on one side, or grab a more casual burger and beer, on the other.”“I didn’t want to mess with a winning formula,” Chris says, when asked what changes he made upon taking over. “All the sauces: our signature marinara, famous huckleberry barbeque sauce, salad dressings and the rest are all made in house and fresh daily. We kept all those great recipes, when I took over the business.” But don’t even begin to think that means he rested on the Grill’s lau-rels; Chris had a vision, for the place aggressively expanding both sides of the business. “I really wanted to push expanding the bar side: adding more local micro-brews, nine big screen TVs to show all the NFL games and be able to support a wide variety of sporting events,” which he now has. “On the fi ne-dining side, we off er prime rib sev-en days a week, which other restaurants don’t do.” He’s also set the Grill up to be a venue for a semi-monthly wine-tasting event. “Every 2nd and 4th Th ursday, starting at 6 o’clock, a wine distributer comes in

and presents four wines. At the end of each wine club, you can buy the wines at a discounted price.” Th is arrange-ment has given him an opportunity to expand the business’ own wine selec-

tion, becoming one of the largest in town.When you visit the Montana City Grill, on a regular basis, you are going to get to know the staff . “I’ve had the same servers and bartenders, from when I took over. Th ey’re friendly and very

experienced.” Th e exception is his chef, who’s been onboard for about a year, now, and has taken the winning food and focused on the plating. “He really does amazing work,” Rehor enthuses. With surf, turf, pastas, those unique huckleberry pork ribs, burgers and much more, the Montana City Grill is home of one of the largest and most varied menus in the area and well worth the short, 4-mile drive. And when you see the large parking lot full of cars, don’t worry; there’s plenty of seating space. During the holidays, most of those people will be enjoying the hospitality of catered events, in the upstairs meeting room, with space for sixty. So stop by the Montana City Grill and meet Chris and his crew. It’s a perfect fi t, no matter what kind of dining expe-rience you are aft er.

Th e Reference Check

Employers oft en ask for reference checks to confi rm a prospective em-ployee’s former work experience, but not everyone realizes the importance of this particular aspect of the hiring process - or how to manage it well. At A2Z Staffi ng Solutions, there are three basic rules for making sure your former experience is a glowing review!Tip One: List your supervisors and not your colleagues. Remember, a professional reference check is not a request for feedback from your friends or co-work-ers, it’s an opportunity for your future supervisor to understand more about how productive you are in the offi ce. Th ey want to see whether you are able to achieve and maintain company goals in a way that is eff ective - and reliable. Tip Two:Contact your references before any-one else does. It’s always a good move to call your former employers ahead of time and let them know to expect a message from the company you’re applying with. Th is gives them a chance to refl ect on your job performance and prepare for any questions your current potential employer may have. Tip Th ree:Do include your list of references as a

separate attachment. Do not put that list on your resume with the rest of your information.Tip Four:

Prepare a minimum of 3 great refer-ences in advance, and keep them on fi le. Always include them as separate attachments. If you use the same ones repeatedly, this saves time and also adds to the review process in a positive way. Go ahead and ask your former employ-er if it is possible to get a short letter on company letterhead with a brief description of your position, the time you were employed, and how successful you were at the offi ce in your previous role. Having a written note from your former supervisor is an excellent way to make an impression, and having several at the same time build a track record that any company can appreciate.Remember, a professional reference is a critical part of your hiring process and can be a deciding factor in your success. Since human resource departments vary from one organization to the next, sometimes you won’t be able to get as much detail as you may prefer. Don’t let that stop you from taking the time to build the best reference fi le you can. It pays to present yourself in the best light possible!

JILL JACKSON’S HOLLYWOODBy Tony Rizzo

HOLLYWOOD -- While Mia Farrow was busy trying to deny Woody Allen’s paternity of their son, Ronan, Woody went right on working as usual. We re-alize Mia’s still hurt because he dropped her and married her adopted daughter, but wouldn’t a DNA test have been a better way to prove her claim? Because Woody is a very private person, he had no comment on her announcement. Woody never even showed up to accept the four Oscars he’s won: as screenwrit- er for “Annie Hall” (1978), “Hannah

and Her Sisters” (1987) and “Midnight in Paris” (2011), as well as one for directing “Annie Hall.”He’s acted in 54 fi lms, written 48 fi lms and directed 45 fi lms. His most recent fi lm, “Blue Jasmine,” with Alec Bald-win, Cate Blanchett, Bobby Cannavale, Louis C.K. and Andrew Dice Clay, has grossed close to $60 million. Th at fi lm was his return to shooting in the United States, in New York and San Francisco, but he’s back to cost-cutting, shooting an untitled fi lm in France, with Emma Stone, Colin Firth and Marcia Gay Harden.We’ll soon see his return as just an actor in John Turturro’s fi lm “Gigolo,” which Turturro wrote, directed and stars in with Allen. Woody plays a

bookstore owner who becomes a pimp for Turturro. “Modern Family’s” Sofi a Vergara and Sharon Stone play two of their clients -- talk about fantasy!

***And speaking of Woody, Marshall Brickman won an Oscar for writing “Annie Hall” with him, and was one of the writers of the smash stage musical “Jersey Boys.” He’s part of the team bringing a new musical to Broadway about “Th e King of the Cowboys,” Roy Rogers, and his wife, Dale Evans. Baby boomers should remember their TV show and his hit theme song, “Happy Trails to You”!Also becoming a musical, headed for Las Vegas, is “Th e Love Boat.” It will be based on the original Jeraldine Saunders novel and use songs popular during the series run, 1977-86. Saun-ders, the inspiration for Julie McCoy, the cruise director, is part of the

producing team and promises she will restore some of the more risque details of the novel that were too hot for tele-vision. Th ey’d be better off opening the show in another Nevada city, Laughlin. At least it has a harbor with riverboats and water!

***Imagine ... one day news and magazine shows are announcing that “Keeping up With the Kardashians” might be canceled because of low ratings, and the next day, Chris Jenner (whose fi rst husband was Robert Kardashian) con-veniently announces that, despite all their denials, she and Bruce Jenner have been living apart for almost a year! It will supposedly play out on their show. It’s always good to have a plan B to grab ratings!(c) 2013 King Features Synd., Inc.
