Nick’s New Digs

September 5, 2012 by SunnyB

EMPLOYEE PROFILE:   Nick Glauber, Commissary and main kitchen

As our Food and Beverage Manager since 2001, Nick’s role in Baggin’s Gourmet Sandwiches is crucial in keeping the standards high for our company.  With the opening of our new main kitchen last month, Nick will better be able to keep up with the high demands of our eight local stores as well as make room for the future stores in Tucson.  His crew of around 20 employees work around the clock to prep the meats, veggies and supplies  that gets delivered to the stores in the early morning.  In addition, all the sinful desserts, pastas, side salads as well as the chicken and tuna salads are being made fresh daily.  Keeping with Baggin’s tradition of having high quality fresh food, Nick makes sure that the preparation process is to not only up to the health department standards but to ours as well.

 

“The new commissary location has made most things much easier for my staff.  It enables us to make more products in a manner that will provide better quality and freshness.  All ready we have introduced our own homemade dressings rather than having to serve pre-made products that are full of preservatives.”

What do you like best about your job?

I have a voice in how this company operates and my input is viewed as valuable and important.  At my past jobs, I worked for larger corporations  where I had little or no input into anything other than how my individual store operated.  Here, I feel I play a much more important role.  I feel like I am part of a team and that my input is valued.

 

What are your biggest challenges?

My biggest challenge I face is that sometimes it all can be a bit overwhelming.  Along with having  valued input, I have a lot of responsibilities.  Sometimes everything seems to happen at once and I have to juggle many projects at once. Although, I think I am pretty skilled at juggling different projects sometimes I have too many balls in the air and not enough hands to catch them.

 

What do you see for your future at Baggin’s in the next five years?

I think Baggin’s future looks very bright. Our new commissary has made us capable of doing more to better the company’s efficiency and gives us room for store expansion.  We should be ready to open several new stores over the next five years. I am really excited to be a part of that.

What do you like doing in your spare time?

In my spare time, I like to golf and spend time with my wife, Hiedi.  I am a huge U of A fan so I go to all the football games and as many basketball games as I can.  My granddaughter turns two this month and I love playing with her and watching her grow.

    I am a U of A graduate, class of 1993 (Wow, I’m OLD)! I used to go to Baggins all the time during my years at college and just loved your gourmet sandwiches…especially the one with turkey, stuffing and cranberries, YUM! So much so, I decided to look you up to see by chance if I could find you in Florida to satisfy my craving. No such luck! Ever think about expanding to the Southeast? Oh well, I guess I’ll have to wait and visit my old “alma mater” some day. Glad to see your still in business and going strong!

    Hello. My name is Cassie i have been in the Oregon Culinary Institute in Portland Oregon. I have been trying to see what the rest of the world can do to help keep us green, i have found some facts on processed food i really didn’t want to know about. The fact that your company makes these foods not only fresh but also delivers then early in the mornings for those people that have to get off to work but forget a lunch is awesome. I had to leave early in the mornings and i would forget the lunch i made in the fridge when id stop at a store id find left overs from the day before, at that point i figured i would just wait it out till i got home from work. Knowing the back round on your sandwiches makes it easier to eat your food. I just want to thank you for the hard work you do.

    To avoid this, it is highly recommended that latex gloves be worn so
    as to take out all the risky elements in regards to safety and cleanliness.
    The term aromatherapy is misleading. The digestive and circulatory systems
    are improved, getting blood flowing through the body.

    Try to use circular movements over joints and up-and-down strokes over long
    bones!!! Within the course of the ming dynasty (1368-1644),
    pediatric massage therapy or tuina evolved into a higher form of therapy which is still applied nowadays!
    I’ve picked these oils for their relaxing, sensual, or refreshing qualities. An orthopedic pillow or bolster can be used to correct body positioning. There are things i can do to get my partner and things i can not or am not willing to do so, and in your case is the same.

    Howdy would you mind letting me know which hosting
    company you’re working with? I’ve loaded your blog in 3 different browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot faster then most.
    Can you suggest a good internet hosting provider at a
    reasonable price? Thanks, I appreciate it!
