Cormier's Custom Carpentry

Cormier's Custom Carpentry THE CREATION... Hi my name is Steve Cormier " Owner/Operator of Cormier's Custom Carpentry." Which then led to word of mouth!

In early 2000 at the age of 28 I underwent a major surgery which led to a rather lengthy recovery, at this point I realized I would not be able to return to my previous job.Yet I still wanted to build! So in 2007 I took a business course which led to the creation of Cormier's Custom Carpentry. I started of with an aggressive ad campaign to get those first few "ever so important jobs". the best adv

ertising anyone could ever ask for. Over the holidays in 2011 it was suggested to me that there was no better way to spread the word than the internet. Specifically the use of a" Face Book Page!"

SO HERE WE ARE!!

Today, school closes if the wind is a little too strong.

Parents get notifications.
Phones start buzzing.
Emails go out.

Everything pauses.

Safety protocols kick in.
Schedules change.
Kids stay home.

Now rewind a few decades.

It’s the middle of a regular school day.
Fluorescent lights buzzing.
Lockers clanging.
The smell of cafeteria pizza drifting through the hallway.

Then the announcement comes over the loudspeaker.

“Tornado warning. Everyone into the hallway.”

No panic.
No early dismissal.
No calls home.

You just grabbed the nearest textbook, sat on the cold tile floor, and put it on your head like it was a helmet designed by the science department.

A whole line of kids sitting against the lockers with giant textbooks balanced on their heads… while the wind outside was apparently trying to relocate the entire town.

Kids whispered.
Someone laughed.
Someone else tried to see how long they could balance the book without using their hands.

And through it all, nobody acted like it was a big deal.

Because in the 80s, that was just the plan.

No emergency apps.
No weather alerts popping up every five minutes.
No shutting down the entire school district.

Just “sit in the hallway and cover your head.”

And if the tornado didn’t carry the building to Oz?

Great!

Everyone went right back to class like nothing happened.

Honestly, the biggest concern most of us had in that moment was one thing.

Were we still getting pizza for lunch? (Spoiler: we were.)
