Skills

  • I notice that i tend to research situations more thoroughly and always find the best solution so that I can handle them neatly I do have one or two strange personality quirks: I have ADD and am occasionally hard of hearing due to partial deafness in my right ear I'm not sure if having ADD is a terrible thing, although it can occasionally interfere with my work and cause me to become hyperactive All though with these attributes may come slight difficulty in completing something i never let anything or anyone stop me from learning from my mistakes
  • Over the couple of years with working in a grocery store i have learned and come to adapt to many different skills Every single minute of my job would involve some type of customer interaction which overtime massively improved my ability to assist and hold conversations with customers
  • Working in the deli department came many new things on the daily that i would learn about the department or i would learn a new way to help complete some of my production in a quicker pace Along with working upfront the slight down side of being inside of a smaller cubicle for 8-12 hours a shift, but i always had a smile on my face and tried to make each interaction i had with the customers a meaningful and pleasant experience
