Logistic Processor
June - August 2019 • Las Vegas, NV
What I liked
I learnt the skills of the behind the scenes side of a retail store. Preparing for the anniversary sale was like prepping for a huge event, so it was cool to play a useful role in the function of that. I liked my supervisor and the people I worked with.
What I wish was different
It was great! Wish it lasted longer. Though, there still is the option to work in the winter holiday months.
Advice
Going in, you'll be learning a lot of new skills really fast. Expect something new everyday. Everything takes a bit of adjustment and getting used to it all may be challenging at first.

Logistics
June 2019 • Bethesda, MD
What I liked
I like being behind the scenes. Fulfilling orders, walking around the entire store. You get to meet people from different departments. I love not being confined to one work area. You get a first look at the supplies before their sold.
What I wish was different
I wish I started earlier than I did. And as being part of a team that probably works harder than any other department, we should have longer than 30 minutes for a lunch breaks; seeing as though floor workers get an hour.
Advice
If this isn’t your life’s work, enjoy yourself, do your job, and don’t stress over the customers.
