It started at 2pm EST. Under the big tent with over 600 people, both internals and guests, we had a great time at our 75th year anniversary. Our CEO began with a history of Ryder. Continued with guest speakers and finally ended with food and live band. Felt really good working for a great organization. We have our challenges, but we keep on moving forward.
