The Planet Access Company Store is a retail store with a social purpose and I love it. They help individuals with disabilities achieve their full potential. I have been working as a Cashier Assistant, an intern position, and it has been fun.
My duties at the Planet Access Company Store include:
-
Bagging items for customers after their purchase
-
Cleaning the store to make sure it is tidy for customers
-
Sizing clothes so that customers can get the sizes they are looking for
-
Helping customers with any questions or concerns
I love my position at the Planet Access Company Store because I enjoy helping customers find what they are looking for. I must admit, sometimes it is hard to bag the items they purchase but everyone is willing to help when I need it. I have learned a lot about working in retail since joining the Planet Access Company Store team. For example, we often move items around and constantly receive a supply of new items. I have learned a lot of different brand names there, like Horny Toad. I usually have to look around the store to see the changes when clothes are moved around or new items arrive.
I truly enjoy spending time with my co-workers and I’m even using the skills I’ve built at the Planet Access Company Store at my new job at Walmart. I hope you will stop by one of these days and visit us! Hopefully you’ll love it as much as I do.
