Merchandiser Full Time

Home Depot Canada - Vancouver, BC

September 2022 to December 2022

I was working overnights and even though I passed probation with flying colors, I did not think it was safe working inside of the store due to the fact that I got Covid from one of the coworkers during my lunch period. I just recently left the job with a two weeks notice.My last day was December 20th, 2022. The best night work I did was when i put away 21 pallets in the flooring department.

Grocery Clerk

Osaka Supermarket - North Vancouver, BC

May 2019 to September 2022

I worked day shifts in the noodle aisle as well as the tea, coffee and herbs aisles. I was always raising the moral of coworkers and customers alike. I was constantly helping others with difficult tasks even though it wasn't my responsibility to do so. I was teaching the grocery staff how to act as a team. I even came up with an idea of moving their kitchen eating area outside so that customers could still order from the kitchen and eat their meals outside where they would not be spreading the virus. You can even see the outside eating area on Google Maps.
