What do you remember most about your first day on the job?
Building relationships with customers. For 15 years I have been working with the Korean business group; they've taught me their customs and some of their language.
What is the best part of working at Sobeys?
I was touched that customers saw my anniversary announcement in the paper and they came to celebrate with me.
What is your proudest moment as a Sobeys employee?
I work with about 200 wholesale customers in New Brunswick, all of the needs from new store set-ups, orders, anything that can improve customer relationships, and I enjoy that.
What advice would you give to a new Sobeys employee?
Be open-minded and accept change positively, as the food business is constantly changing.
My Sobeys is...
...a food family that provides good service to Canada. It's a great company to work and grow with.
