"OCE is the closest thing to working an outside job as I could ever imagine. You start from the bottom and prove your way up through production, quality, and willingness to learn new things. Were rewarded for good work ethic and self-motivation."

While the Garment Factory is known primarily for producing jeans, coats, and shirts, the Specialty Line's role in handling a vast array of miscellaneous garment and non-garment projects is often overlooked.

"This work program has been great for me because it keeps me busy and keeps me used to a 40 hour work week. I stay in contact with the outside world. It has kept a great work ethic in me."

My name is Deniz and I have been working for OCE Laundry since 2009. First time I started to work in here, it was an eye opening experience. My lead man gave me my training and placed me next to an experienced worker until I learned the skills I needed to do my job.

I began my journey with OCE back in 2010. My first job at OSP was in the Furniture Factory. I learned skills such as: sanding (finish sanding), sealing, and finish lacquer. I had never done any of these thing before.

Before entering this facility, I had never sewn a day in my life, well, not with a sewing machine. I did however one time attempt hand stitching a silk shirt that I designed and cut out of an old sheet when I was 15 years old.

I have worked for OCE for six years as an office clerk in our industrial laundry facility and sign shop. I've handled database management, inventory, purchasing, shipping and receiving. And of course, when I am available, I help on the production floor.

We have received many letters and continue to see more come in. The responses have been fairly well-rounded with a range of positive, negative, and neutral tones. We want to share with you a letter we received from Theophilus. Theophilus resides at Oregon State Penitentiary and works in OCE's Call Center, leading and mentoring others while growing himself. His last name has been redacted for considerations of safety and sensitivity. What he has to say in the following letter is real and in his own words.
