Meet Jeff Ryg

“I’ve been at the U since ‘93, and I didn’t plan on being here for 30 years. But what happens is you start working, you move around to different parts of the U, you get experience, and you realize that you can spend the rest of your career here. 

“If a job’s not working out for you, you can always try a different job on campus. That’s how I got to U Market Services, and now you’ll always see me with a smile on my face. I’m continually meeting new people, and it’s been fun to watch the campus change over the years.

“The job security is another thing that’s kept me here for so long. I’ve never been afraid of being laid off.”—Jeff Ryg, Delivery Service Driver, Teamsters Local 320
