RETAIL ASSOCIATE
Summary

I am a hard working person with 25 plus years in the labor and supervisor fields. I have always tried to work and live by the same rule "treat others how you want to be treated". I feel I have very good people skills and am a good problem solver. Everything I have learned I have learned by doing and asking for advice from those who can do it better or have done it longer. In short I have had different jobs over the years do the economy or a change in ownership but I have always been able to start from the bottom and work my way up.
