Summary

I have had almost 6 years experience in retail. I worked in all departments at the Mad Butcher (grocery, butchery, checkouts, and produce) so I am very open to learning new things. I am a reliable and fast worker who is good at helping out when needed. I'm not fussed with days and hours, just keen on kickstarting my career.
