  • I am a Deli Clerk at the Fresh Market; it is my job to make sure that every morning at 4am all of our food is prepped and ready to be served to our customers
  • Every morning I first take out any food from the previous night, set it aside to be tagged and later thrown out, then proceed to clean out our cold case before putting any fresh delicacies inside the cold case
  • After I have finished cleaning the case I then go and make a list of items I need to put inside our cold case (Every item I make is fresh and cold)
  • Once I am done filling the case with fresh food, I would proceed to clean off any mess that has been created in the midst of my prepping the food

  • While working at Aldi Warehouse I was as flexible as I've ever been

  • I even worked in the ice-cold freezer (Which contained meat, ice cream, and other frozen goods)
  • I always wanted to learn a lot as it was my first-time working a warehouse job, so I never shied away from working in different departments when I'm brand new to a job
  • Especially when I'm in an entirely different work atmosphere.
