Accomplishments

    I have consistently exceeded expectations at Great Lakes Cheese, and they have covered the costs of sending me to classes in Microsoft Excel, Supervisor training, Forklift Training Systems, and Cheese Grading and Evaluation. I have accomplished and was certified in all classes.

    I have round-the-clock accountability, where I was called in to work on my off-hours to collaborate with my manager, supervisor, and two other employees, and developed a plan to quarantine over 2 million impressions of film that were sent to us by a vendor with issues.

    Great Lakes Cheese sent me to help out a sister plant that was understaffed in Utah.

    Great Lakes Cheese has sent me to 2 sister plants in Texas and New York to learn the EWM systems.

    I volunteered to change my hours from day shift to midnights to help out my department when we were understaffed and had new employees who needed to be trained.
