Summary

I was with O'Reilly's Auto Parts for 13 years. Within the time I held several different positions. I was hired on as a picker. My job consisted of picking auto parts through out the wearhouse that stores had ordered. My second and longest position was working for Q.A (Quality Assurance). I would take inventory, auditing different parts of the wearhouse each day. Making stock adjustments as needed. My finale job at O'Reilly's was as a stocker. Moving pallets of product to their designated areas. Then adding them to the system and putting the product away in the current location.

Additional Information

Making the decision to leave O'Reilly's Auto Parts was a difficult one, but after 13 years of hard labor it was time for me to find a job better suited for my body and one I could keep doing for years to come.

Before I was able to find another job Covid-19 hit. My son has diabetes and we had to go into lock down. My son was to young to stay home alone. We were in lock down for 2 years. Then some family members became ill and with me not working I was able to help them. I am beyond ready to get back into the work force and give 110% to the company I work for.

I would like to note that in previous years at other jobs (Hastings Entertainment, Party City, Walmart and Wireless Retail) I have been a manager (Hastings and Party City) and store manager (Wireless Retail). Making the stores number one in sales and revenue. I trained other employees (at all my jobs) and managers. I am committed to customer service satisfaction. I am reliable, detail oriented and a team player. I have professional integrity, a strong moral courage and am honest with a strong work ethic.
