Let\u2019s see what the world looked like when Earl joined the rental industry:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Much of Europe was still part of the USSR and Germany was split into two countries.<\/li>\n<li>The Channel Tunnel had yet to be built.<\/li>\n<li>Microsoft was still a private company and Windows had not yet been released.<\/li>\n<li>There was no World Wide Web, much less cloud software.<\/li>\n<li>Now-ubiquitous things like The Simpsons and Starbucks didn\u2019t exist.<\/li>\n<li>Neighbours (Australia) and EastEnders (UK) were in the midst of their first seasons.<\/li>\n<li>For our Canadian friends, the Loonie had not yet been introduced.<\/li>\n<li>If you thought Point of Rental grew a lot&#8230;the world has added more than 3 billion people since Earl started at Point of Rental (4.83 billion then to 7.87 billion now)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Through all the changes, Earl has been a rock for Point of Rental customers and employees, providing extensive knowledge and a humble, self-deprecating attitude we all enjoyed.<\/p>\n<p>The world and Point of Rental have grown immensely since Earl joined us 36 years ago. He\u2019s influenced hundreds, if not thousands, of lives over the years, and we\u2019re all excited for him as he takes his energy and enthusiasm on to the next stage of his life.<\/p>\n<p>But it\u2019s impossible to quantify someone like Earl or his impact on others by rattling off a series of numbers. We had some of our team tell us about their favorite Earl memories for his 35th anniversary in the video below; we hope you\u2019ll add your best Earl memories on our social media feeds or email them to <a href=\"mailto:marketing@pointofrental.com\">marketing@pointofrental.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div style=\"padding:56.25% 0 0 0;position:relative;\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/449423147?h=5a43cb0e45&#038;color=81bd41&#038;title=0&#038;byline=0&#038;portrait=0\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><script src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/api\/player.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/449423147\">Earl 35th Anniversary &#8211; Public<\/a> from <a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/pointofrental\">Point of Rental Software<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\">Vimeo<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This time, it\u2019s for real: Oct. 29, 2021 marks the final day of legendary implementation specialist Earl Sherman\u2019s long tenure at Point of Rental, as he officially retires on his birthday, Oct. 31.
