Additional Information

Preferred hours of work: I have no issue picking up extra shifts, even if they’re on the days I’m about to say I usually can not work. I have a 3 year old son and can not start work until 4:00pm, Monday-Friday and cannot work weekends unless absolutely needed. I have no problem staying late or coming in early to help out.
