Accomplishments
While working in Shipping and Receiving at Vital Plastics, I was able to fix their inventory problem within the first 3 months of my time working there. It took 6 to fully work out all the kinks in the system, but it went from not being sure if the system was correct half the time, to the system and physically what was sitting there was correct 90% of the time. I was awarded Employee of the Quarter for this and being able and willing to help anyone get anything out of inventory for them if they required it.

I was awarded this for being able to turn around a broken inventory system in only 3-4 months of my employment at Vital Plastics. That along with my hard work, my willingness to help others, and my ability to work fast, learn fast, and be able to work alone with little to no help.
