A Message from Mark Wofford
This year marked my 20th anniversary at PC&E and earlier this year, I shared with the staff that I planned on leaving at the end of the year. That time has come faster than I imagined it would. I am proud of the work I’ve been able to do at PC&E, but I felt that it was time to move on and allow others the chance to make their mark here.
I owe a huge debt of gratitude to Doug Smith for giving me this opportunity so many years ago. I still remember those lunches we had before I joined the staff here as he told me a bit about what he was looking for and what his thoughts were for the company. The opportunity he gave me truly changed my life and the company he founded has made a major difference in the Atlanta Film Community.
I am thankful that I had the chance to work with so many other folks from the rental industry as a representative of PC&E in PERG (Production Equipment Rental Group). Our industry is full of hard-working individuals dedicated to providing excellent gear and premium customer service to their customers.
I am appreciative of our customers that have come to us year after year and allowed us the opportunity to be their provider of equipment, sales, and stages. And I am thankful that I can call so many of them my friends as well.
But more than anything else, I am grateful that I have been able to work alongside so many of my fellow PC&E employees over the years. I have always said that they are truly what makes PC&E the special place it is, I can confidently say that is their dedication to this industry that has driven the success of the company.
It is that level of dedication and determination that allowed me to make the decision that I made earlier this year. I am confident that Garrett Murck will successfully lead the company forward with the team that he has here. I will continue to serve on the PC&E Board of Directors for the immediate future. But after 20 years, I feel that I am ready to find my next challenge.
So, I am not retiring, and I am not saying goodbye. Instead, I look forward to what the future may bring, and I hope to see you all again.
