Meet Your Neighborhood Milkman: Jason Matthieu

Smith Brothers Milkman Jason Matthieu

Hometown: Lake Tapps, Washington
 
What year did you join the team? 2012

What do you enjoy most about your job? Being greeted by my favorite dogs, giving them treats, then scratching their heads

What’s your favorite product? Eggs

What’s your favorite way to spend a day off? Golfing

What’s your favorite thing to do in the Pacific Northwest? Going to a Mariners game on a summer night

What’s your proudest accomplishment? Buying a home

What’s your hidden talent or hobby? Playing guitar and singing

What was your first job? Dump truck wash boy (very unpleasant work!)

Please share anything else you would want customers to know about you.

Despite the early hours and physically demanding nature of this line of work, I really do love my job. Being on route early enough to see the sunrise over Mt Si, or greeting smiling children as they come outside to get the milk are aspects of the job that really warm my soul.

Just received our first order and so far so great! Thank you Jason for placing our Porch box in a secure and shaded area. We appreciate the thoughtfulness.

I want to send a HUGE THANK YOU to Jason...last week, when it was our delivery day, our front gate was locked when he arrived to drop off our much-needed delivery. Did this stop Jason from doing what needed to be done?! ABSOLUTELY NOT!! He left our order just outside of the gate in a Smith Brothers insulated bag and I was so very thankful that, in spite of my forgetfulness to unlock the gate for Jason, he still made our weekly delivery. I am so incredibly grateful not only for Jason, specifically, but also for Smith Brothers during this time of quarantine, helping to keep my fridge stocked and my family safe.

Hi Jason,

Just wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you for all your hard work. My 2 year old son who loves his milk and has to have a glass every morning and every night can not be more appreciative for you and your service! And as a mom, you make my life that much easier since now I don't have to go to the store on a weekly basis to feed my sons and husbands milk obsession:)

Hope you and your family have a wonderful 4th of July!1

Thanks,
Ellis family

I had no idea how hard you guys were working and the long hours you were putting in during this crazy time. Thank you so much for being out there and making sure I didn’t run out of things. You made a stressful time, not as stressful. I sincerely appreciate all your hard work and long hours.
Thanks for being our milkman!

Hi, Jason! Happy Milkman Day! It's always a treat to get deliveries to our door, but this spring it has been a lifesaver. Thanks for continuing your timely deliveries during the COVID epidemic and the big lockdown. I hope you stay healthy, happy and safe. We appreciate all you do for us. Thank you!

I’m very glad Jason is our milkman
We’ve only been back with smith bros a short time. We used to get milk when our kids were little now they are 50🤣
But Jason does a great job

Dear Jason, Thank you so much for your delivery during the snow.  I live on a private lane, you parked on the
street and carried my order up to my front door.  The only foot prints in the snow where yours!  Many thanks to you and Happy, happy New Year.  Gratefully the Hern family
