As a warehouse operator at Medline, I work with catalogues, records, and organize materials received at the warehouse, arrange materials for order assembly, and fulfill worksheets or tickets for customers by reading production schedules, order forms, and requisitions. I assist in locating and gathering products to be able to move and distribute to production workers, the assembly line, or to shipping areas. When it comes to assembly, I build, wrap, sort, and transport customer orders. I operate a cart, doilies, an order-picker, and a walkie to transport items. Every task I complete, I make sure to always work quickly and effectively while maintaining a safe and clean workplace.

Major duties as a material handler for O'Reilly Auto Parts consist of physical effort, such as heavy lifting, carrying, and maneuvering O'Reilly Auto Parts equipment and tools. I operate machinery such as pallet jacks, and I received certification to use dock stockers, forklifts, and more. I have had to work closely with other employees, as well as independently, with limited supervision and without guidance.

As a crew member at Cane's, I did everything from customer service to cooking and prepping. When it came to the food, I made sure everything was up to customer consumption. This included flipping toast, throwing fries in the fryer, cooking the chicken, as well as prepping the chicken, and serving drinks. Aside from the cooking, I also assisted in the cleaning and customer service end of the job. I cleaned the restrooms, scrubbed the walls, cleaned the lobby, etc. When I worked at the front end of Canes, I took customers' orders on the iPad outside or through the drive-through window, and passed out customer food. took payments, etc. Not only did I train new crew members in how to properly conduct themselves in a professional manner, how to be effective in a fast-paced environment, to be sufficient, and mainly to promote teamwork in quality over quantity.
