PEOPLE PROFILE

MARILYN OBERMANN

Occupation: Receptionist, Drury Industries, Inc.

Birthplace: Oran

Current home: Cape Girardeau

The best part of my job is: "Working closely with my fellow employees and meeting people who come into the office."

Describe your oddest experience: "After operating the same switchboard for 10 years, a new one was installed. The new paging system did not shut off automatically as the old one did. One day, I was joking with one of my co-workers, not realizing the P.A. was on. I learned later that everyone got their laugh for the day."
