Whoa … summer’s coming to a screeching halt and Autumn colors are beginning to creep their way into the trees of Vermont. Danish Woolen Delight’s busiest season fast approaches.
The summer has brought with it one major change to our company. Notice the word “our”. Previously a one person operation, all aspects of the business were run by me, Janice. My husband, Morgan has now joined in and will take over a major portion of the workload. (Briefly put – being foreign born can sometimes present difficulties in finding a satisfying and gratifying job in the U.S.) So we’ve switched roles – I am putting more time into a job I love (as a nurse) and he is taking over many of the practical aspects of the business.
My main concern is that women who have freely called with questions about breastfeeding & nursing pads, will feel a bit surprised & speechless when the phone is answered by a male with a thick Swedish accent. In an effort to still be accessible to everyone with questions, whom they do not feel comfortable speaking with a male about, I will try to address many of the common questions I get over Danish Woolen Delight’s blog.
I am still happy to call anyone who feels they would rather speak directly with a person, but please just keep in mind that many of these calls cannot be responded to during typical business hours. If you leave a message, let me know when it is okay to call (or more importantly, when not to call). My husband, Morgan, is actually quite enjoying his new role and is learning the answers to many questions, so as long as you feel comfortable speaking with a male, please feel free to call. When he can’t answer a question, he’ll refer you to me. And remember, he’s from Sweden, where breastfeeding is the norm and fathers get Paternity Leave, so he’s “been there, done that”!
