As the office assistant, I was tasked with answering phone calls regarding farmers' request for fertilizer for their fields, entering their information into the computer, making out order forms, and entering other necessary data in to the computer to ease the stress of the secretary during the busy season.

While employed by La Crosse Brush, I had different duties. one of my main jobs was making boxes for the brushes, inspecting the brushes and sometimes assembling them. It was very important to me that each brush was made correctly.

I would sometimes run different machines that made and/or trimmed brushes that are used in different industries, for example the food industry for cleaning the machines. I would have to inspect each brush to ensure there were no missing wads and it met the guidelines for the customer.

If and when there was down time, I would often help our shipping clerk pull orders and get them ready for shipping.
