Floral Manager, Customer Service, Cashier

The Kroger Company
Macon, GA
06.1981 - 07.2005
  • Floral Department Manager gave me the opportunity to make work schedules, inventory and order product for sale. Holidays were especially demanding as related to creating and selling large volumes of seasonal merchandise in a specific time. I participated in many classes and training sessions to master designing and creating various floral techniques. I also worked directly with customers to meet their specific needs or wants.
  • After being promoted to Customer Service, I took on more responsibility with store bookkeeping and store checkout procedures. My interaction with customers became more focused on being a resource person, meeting their needs and on occasion, dealing with unhappy customers.
  • As a cashier, I interacted with a diverse group of customers and developed positive bonds with many of the shoppers at the store. I learned to work with various types of currency and maintained accountability for store funds.
