How would you like to "earn" while you "learn?"Andrew really enjoys his paid position at Teal's Grocery. It has been an opportunity to earn a wage while learning a job. He's an important part of the staff there, along with several other Tiospa Zina Tribal School students.
He receives his paycheck every two weeks through a program called "Project Skills." This project provides funds so that students can "earn and learn" in real jobs for real money.
Andrew is really good at "facing shelves" (putting items in the correct places, lining them up carefully) and rotating stock (so that newer products go behind older ones on the shelves). He is very careful to check product codes to make sure the right product is being placed in the correct location.
Sale days are extra busy, since products move quickly and shelves need continual attention. Wednesdays are also very busy, because it is "Senior Day" and elders get special discounts.
Andrew also provides customers with "carry out" service. Teal's likes its customers to have help when they have to carry their groceries out to their vehicle. So, when he hears "Andrew- Register 1," he knows he needs to hustle over there and help pack bags and bring them out to the customer's car. Although it's not required, sometimes customers even offer a tip!
