Love you all.
thanks.

Be prepared to talk about the most recent separation. Ask AnnMarie for some good wording to use, I would think.

Focus on the volume of work and sales for each location. Doing inventory, you should have an idea of how much product moved through the shops in a week, or day. Add that to the ability/responsibility statements. Use this to show how you went from Storehouse ($70,000 of product weekly) to Albertsons ($120,000 of product weekly) to Sams ($500,000? of product weekly) so it shows how as your skills progressed so did the level of responsibility and the volume of work.

Also, additional tools used. The autowrappers. The fat-content cooker at Albertsons. The specialized training you have and licensing (forklift, hydrolics, cleaning, etc.) mention the certifications, or licensing and how long you have been certified to do those activities.

You first learned about equipment sanitation at stouffers which you do not need to include on your resume anymore, but you could mention that when college age, you had a student-style job where you cleaned production food equipment and remember a lot of that and have built on that for workspace sanitation over the years.

Just a few quick thoughts.

At that time, the teachers of the classes thought all gaps should be filled with points (LDS mission from/until, training, schooling). I am not certain if that is still the case. In your case, you worked at the bronze factory. While that is not important to meat cutting, it does show that you were employed. I wonder if you should pad a bit more by stating that you are certified. (Oops. I just read Todd's reply and all of this is already there. Use his suggestions over mine because he hires people, as does Shawn. 

One question: Why do you have bullets as well as commas. Doesn't the bullet do the job?

I will run it by Dad if he ever gets off the phone (Auntie H, scouts, Julie, High Priests, Temple Shift Coordinator).

    Our Week

    Today we received a new bishopric. It was sad seeing our former bishopric sit on the stand for the last time. They certainly have been excellent leaders and have been such great men to work with the youth. They have reactivated several families and young men. Those young men are now going on missions. We have five missionaries out now but will have three more going soon. I will not be surprised if Bishop Roy Ward becomes the next stake president. Our new bishop is one of the dentists here in town. His brother and he own the Nephi Dental Clinic. His brother is first counselor in the First Ward. 

    We have Caydin and Donovin here with us this week. Erin is going to girl's camp with Megan and AnnMarie. Donovin tells us that he is now going to church in St. George. His best friend is LDS and invited him to go to Scouts with him. He also goes to church with his friend when he is home but is now a registered Scout. He is a good boy. He wants to be a missionary and tells us that he will be baptized when he is 18 and doesn't need his parent's permission. He likes going to church with us and has made friends here.

    We are certainly happy that you are being blessed with the gift of tongues. Gramps and I are thankful that you are putting in the needed work in order for the Holy Ghoset to bless you so that you can learn so quickly. I always thought that Spanish was more difficult to learn than French. I would give Spanish a try if I had some time but I really don't need it except to know what Hispanic folks who are shopping in Walmart are actually saying to each other. Maybe they are saying: "I hope that woman does not buy the last yellow shirt because it is the one I wanted."

    It is goodnight for this old Grammy. I love you and Gramps and I continue to pray for you and for your success.
