Cynthia Barr
Proudly Serving: Sobeys Calgary Office, AB
Position: Receptionist
Core Value: Get it Done with Passion and Integrity
When you arrive at Sobeys West head office for the first time, you needn’t worry about a thing – Cindy is armed and ready with knowledge, warmth and, yes, even candy. Making people feel comfortable and welcome is simply what Cindy does. “I like to meet people and find out a little something about them,” she says. “I can tell if someone is down or having a bad day and try and turn it around for them. It’s about making that connection.” Cindy, who takes it upon herself to make others feel special, was treated to that feeling herself last year when she won a prize at an awards ceremony. “When my name was called, everyone stood and the whole room was clapping,” says Cindy. “I felt really special. I felt like this is where I really belong.”
