Letter of Nomination for Empleado del Año

I hereby nominate Luis Murray for Empleado del Año 1999. Luis has demonstrated an outstanding mastery of his job and of the operations and priorities of the electronics department in general. He focuses clearly on the job at hand, getting his work done in short order, yet always with skill and care. He never misses the opportunity to learn more about the electronic systems in use at the observatory and often provides valuable ideas to improve a design or accomplish a repair.

Luis seems always to be available on a moment's notice to make off-hours emergency repairs. At work he is quick to provide a helping hand to his co-workers. He has made a big contribution to debugging and maintenance of the telescope drive systems.

For his motivation, skill, organization, diligence, cooperation, and considerable accomplishments, I nominate Luis for employee of the year.
