Round of Applause - August 2020, Brett Bleess

Brett Bleess.jpg

While it's hard to believe we are in August already, it does mean a new month and another opportunity for our monthly "Round of Applause". This month goes to our very own Qlik employee Brett Bleess! Brett is part of our Digital Support team,  has over 3500 posts, and countless interactions in the community. Brett is a valued partner to our team and we appreciate all of his interactions and moderation he provides.  

Brett started with Qlik in Oct 2004 and has been a part of the support organization the entire time due to his overwhelming drive to solve problems.  When he started, we were on version 6 of the QlikView product and that was the only product we had! His community presence is part of his job, however, he really enjoys spending time in the community as things tend to be a bit more laid back and collaborative than in the case environment.  Also, much of the time things are not as urgent and people tend to be much more appreciative of the help/guidance they receive. While he mainly collaborates in the QlikView product area,  when time allows, he is able to get into the Qlik Sense forum.

In his spare time, Brett enjoys doing projects around his house as well as for friends and family. He has a dedicated woodworking shop in his backyard with a full suite of tools. He really enjoys building new things and fixing old. Brett grew up on a farm and really misses working on tractors. He wants to buy a subcompact tractor, so he can do projects using the tractor.  Due to the virus tractors are in short supply, however, he is hopeful to buy one soon. 

Let's give Brett a round of applause by adding a comment and/or giving him a like! @Brett_Bleess @Courtney_Cromley @Wlad_Masi @Melissa_Potvin

Thanks everyone, I am a little embarrassed by the attention to be honest, there are a lot of others out here that do way more than I do, and I try to be sure I give all of you some kudos and stuff when I can, as I really need all of you to help me, as you know from some of my posts, I am not an expert in everything! 🙂  Feel free to call me out if I make any major blunders in any posts too, as I am the first to admit when I screw something up, normally!  Look forward to working with you all in the coming months to keep making things better.

Cheers,
Brett

Congratulations @Brett_Bleess. You deserve it. Your contribution in directing people in the right direction cannot be overlooked. A lot of the times I will miss posts where I can offer help, but it is comforting to know that it won't go past you. Thank you and hope to get continually tagged by you 😉

Congratulations @Brett_Bleess! You are well worth a round of applause from the community.

You are the only one that I'm aware of that takes the time to look back at old threads trying to sum things up and close them. Because of this I bet you are causing more threads to become closed than anyone in the community. I also believe that this gives a good experience for the original author, and it is also good for the community when we get more threads marked as answered for reference people with similar questions.

Also thanks for being the guy to ping at Qlik Support when necessary. 

Enjoy the August
