Work History

Meat Department Associate

Walmart
Benton, IL
03.2024 - 03.2025

My job in the meat room was different compared to OGP. In the meat room, my job was to keep the meat wall filled up. I would take my cart to storage room for the meat, grab what was needed, prepare in the meat room next door, then take out what I needed to the floor. There was Chicken, Beef, Pork, Ground Beef, Fish, and Sausage. There were also bunkers with frozen turkey, chicken, or other frozen meats. I had to keep them filled up as well and help with produce a few times. I had to keep speed racks filled, clean the meat room, and clean the meat storage area. My job had ended due to something I still view as a tragedy. I got the flu, so I had to call in for two days. You cannot work in food prep while you're sick due to store policy along with state and possible federal laws. I got pointed out for calling in, thus ending my 2nd stay at Walmart.

Security

Du Quoin State Fairgrounds
Du Quoin, IL
09.2023 - 09.2023

This job was 2 weeks long in length. I worked for the duration of the fair being in town for a couple weeks. My job was to see if people had their parking stickers when coming through one of the gates I watched. When not at the gate, I was taken somewhere to watch the people around me. I told people who were participating in the fair games where to go. I was posted at gates, corners, and other places for usually one hour or longer. However, someone coming to, or working, at the fair, gave my father COVID. I could not come back after my Dad got sick either, which ended my brief security job after 7 or 8 days.

Sales Associate

Walmart
Benton, IL
12.2021 - 04.2023

I had several responsibilities in OGP. In the back, we would dispense orders out to customers. We would also help customers who had questions about their orders. We would also resolve issues like someone receiving the wrong item in their order. There were other tasks such as keeping the work environment organized during hectic hours or standing by the dispensing doors for time saving. On the floor, we went on pick runs where we grabbed what customers ordered in categories of frozen, chilled, grocery, or others. We also helped customers find items they were looking for. We also zoned the aisles or other tasks our team leads or coaches would assign. I lost my job because I had days mixed up. I thought my day off was on the day I hadn't come in. I was pointed out for it.
