      I oversaw and was responsible for 15-22 children weekly. I maintained a safe, sanitary environment for children aged 1-15 and came up with fun, creative, and educational activities that parents highly appreciated.

      I aided customers as they scanned, weighed, bagged, and paid for their own items. I also consistently sanitized my work area, made sure the machines were operational, gathered shopping carts, and occasionally oversaw and trained other cashiers. Before I received my promotion to oversee self-checkout, I was a cashier who consistently had an IPM (items per minute) score that was above the company average of 15. My customer service skills, along with my drive to take on more responsibility, allowed me to get a promotion during the first six months of my employment.
