Accomplishments

Working in the Danville/ Pleasant Hill CA. area. about 7 years ago. Those stores had several recognition programs such as Employee of the month and or

Recognition from sharing an idea to help the company save money, be more efficient or helping with an inventory process. I am proud to say that I had received Employee of the month on several occasions as well, as monetary recognition from walgreens on many different ideas presented to the company. Sad to say that these days walgreens doesn't have that recognition or the current store I am at doesn't practice it.
