As we approach the end of National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM), we are highlighting one amazing person as the Employee of the Month! Troy has been working at his job longer than any other individual served with an incredible 35 years at Chief Supermarket. Since starting in 1991, Troy’s workplace has undergone many changes, including a name change from Rays Supermarkets to Chief Supermarket after the original store’s location closure. Although Troy has seen many changes over the years, one thing remains the same; his commitment to his career. Troy’s helpful nature, friendliness, reliability and sense of humor have helped him become a valuable employee.
Troy’s advice to those wanting to achieve long-term employment is to stay focused on your work and stay off your cell phone to ensure you get the job done and interact with customers and coworkers effectively. Troy also plans to continue working until he reaches retirement age, so we look forward to presenting his 40-year award in 2031. Troy doesn’t have retirement plans quite yet, but they might include karaoke as he loves to sing and even won Marimor Idol in 2010.
Congratulations, Troy, on 35 years of employment, and thank you, Chief Supermarket, for being an inclusive employer.
