\\nResolving Conflict
\\n(but not between Cubs and Cards fans)
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nJim Revelle is Nussbaum\\u2019s newly installed chaplain from
\\nCorporate Chaplains of America. With a master\\u2019s degree in conflict resolution,
\\nyears serving as a mediator in the Cook County Courthouse, and a joyful laugh
\\nthat\\u2019ll make you smile, Jim is excited to start his station with Nussbaum. He
\\nmay play sides when it comes to professional baseball, but he\\u2019s the supportive
\\nsounding board we all need for day-to-day life.

\\n
\\nHis Services
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nHe expounds on the services he provides, from marriage
\\ncounseling to hospital visits, and his commitment to being present, when asked, through the good, the bad, and the ugly.

\\nYour Resource
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nJim is available to Nussbaum drivers and non-drivers
\\n24/7/365. He playfully mentions that he\\u2019s someone to talk to that doesn\\u2019t oversee
\\nyour pay raises and assessments.
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\n\\u201cI\\u2019m just a guy with a lot of flaws and some experiences in life, and if I can be of any help to someone on the journey, I\\u2019d love to do that.\\u201d
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nHe leaves you with your first piece of encouragement in this
\\nepisode. Reach out to Jim, utilize his presence, and take comfort in a
\\nconfidante with this free and voluntary program provided through Nussbaum
\\nTransportation.
