This past September, Toward Maximum Independence (TMI) Supported Employment client, Joe, celebrated 20 years working at Walmart as a Cart Attendant. Joe loves being outside collecting carts, whether the weather is boiling hot, raining or a freezing 50 degrees! Joe says, "I really like the people I work with.” He has many great advocates at work, especially Crystal, who has always been a staunch supporter and friend to Joe. There are some perks to working 20 years at Walmart. According to Lupita in HR, Joe received:
* 1 week pay every anniversary * 10% LIFETIME discount * Plaque and certificate * Competitive pay
Congratulations, Joe!
