What do you remember most about your first day on the job?
Being involved in the community, supplying the community with fresh produce. Personally speaking, it's the friends that I have made, and especially that I met my wife at Sobeys.
What is the best part of working at Sobeys?
Being recognized for ideas, and rolling these out to other stores. I also love when I get compliments about my staff if some- body has provided good customer service to our customers.
What is your proudest moment as a Sobeys employee?
During Smart Retailing I enjoyed seeing other stores and meeting other managers. We had a 25-year dinner and were recognized for the work we had done.
What advice would you give to a new Sobeys employee?
Don't be afraid to make a mistake; you learn more that way.
