Before coming to Happy Chicken Farms in July of 1984, Jim worked for Big Bear Grocery Stores for almost 15 years. He started as a delivery driver here when they still loaded their own trucks before leaving on their routes. After 3 months, he moved into working in the office 2 days a week along with his route duties the other 3 days a week. As the company continued to grow, Jim was taken off of the routes and given more office responsibilities, gradually becoming the office manager and later the Vice President of Operations to oversee not just the office, but warehouse and route operations as well. Jim’s sunny disposition and devilish laugh kept everyone at Happy Chicken Farms and Merry Milk Maid in stitches for 37 years!
