Proudly Serving: Sobeys #551 Paradise, NL

Position: File Maintenance Clerk

Core Value: Stay Real

Shawn won’t forget his first day on the job. It was a hot summer day and the water to the building had been shut off. “Sobeys had brought in a water tanker,” says Shawn. “We were filling up five-gallon buckets of water and bringing them into the store to fill up the toilets in the public bathrooms.” Shawn’s job has improved immensely since that day. Now a file maintenance clerk, Shawn has also gotten involved with charities that Sobeys supports. Last Christmas he created and sold a cookbook containing recipes from co-workers, raising about $1,000 that went to a family in need. “When it comes to giving back to the community, I’ll do anything I can to help,” says Shawn, who is proud of the team at Sobeys. “Whatever we can do for the community, we do. We love our customers. It’s a great store to be in and I’m proud to work there.”
