Part time Grocery worker
New World Onekawa
02.2019 - 06.2019
Company Overview: A local supermarket
I worked at Onekawa New World, a local supermarket for the basis of work experience and the chance to earn some real earned cash
In previous years, I have not been able to work because training for swimming 8 times a week limited myself from working so when I quit it was a good opportunity for this
In this supermarket I worked in Grocery, and since being a small supermarket I would often do checkout, help out the boss with anything that needed to be done and all round be working all the time to my best ability
I worked for 13 hours a week with some weeks less or more with school events on and covering peoples shift, so my work hours were very variable with some weeks going up to 24 hours
After just under 6 months in my job, I officially quit as I figured it was best to maximise my time to make the best benefit out of the hours in the week in other areas of my life
This job was definitely a learning/starting step for myself in terms of proper work experience and was all and all a good experience
