Overnight Freight Associate
Home Depot

- I worked with a team to remove stock from shipment trucks and place them onto store shelves. It was a full time position averaging from 7pm to 3am, though there were times I stayed past that at my manager’s request. In this job, I worked hard with my teammates in order to place stock onto shelves in a quick and organized manner. I learned micromanagement skills in order to work in numerous departments, team building as I had a good relationship with my coworkers and superiors, and adaptability due to the unpredictable nature of what cargo I would have to deal with on which day. I also learned flexibility in my schedule, showing that I could work both graveyard and day shifts. I also learned customer service skills on the rare days that I needed to be called in for day shifts.

- Primarily stocked food shelves overnight. My shifts started at 5 AM and ended at 12-1 PM. During the first half of my shift I would work with my teammates to pull out stock and place it onto shelves. The other half when the store opened also involved potential customer service, as I was a floor employee. I had to learn to organize my time, balance sub activities (customer service) to my main work. I also had a good relationship with my coworkers and worked full time.
Busser

05.2014 - 08.2016
- I worked at a restaurant as a busser. My duties were to serve water, collect plates, clean tables, assist with bringing in stock, custodial services, and filling in for missing employees.
