Meet Nicholas (Ohio)!
"I am grateful to be going to work this morning. I enjoy going to work and I am always in uniform."
Nicholas is a receiving clerk, responsible for unpacking freight that has come in off the truck, placing new price tags on merchandise, putting security tags on specific items, and uses a baler for the empty cardboard boxes.
Nicholas says, "With this job, nothing has been a challenge but previously it was my manager and some co-workers that presented a challenge in keeping that job." He expressed that supportive co-workers and his employment staff have been helpful to him in finding and keeping a job.
"Employment First matters to me because it makes me feel like I am making a difference. I matter."
