Arguably the most fun shift of the week - Every Tuesday, a group of 4-5 students from the Western Placer Unified School District's Special Education contingent come to the warehouse as part of a job training program. They are recent high school graduates seeking work experience, and the program offers them the chance to explore many different work environments. They also get more familiar with the employee/supervisor and co-worker dynamics and experience them in a real work setting. We encourage anyone interested in getting to know the students and having a blast while packing either produce or nonperishable products to check this shift out!
- Standing and walking for 1-2 hours
- Lifting banana boxes full of product (up to 25lbs) from floor level to 4ft high
- Reaching into bins at floor level to place items or retrieve them
*As with all our shifts, these are not firm requirements, merely a heads up regarding the general activity involved in the shift. If you are interested in this activity but unsure if it's the right fit, we're happy to figure out accommodations or adjustments that will allow you to participate safely and comfortably!
Shifts close ten minutes after the scheduled start time. In order to provide adequate instruction and safety information to all volunteers, we cannot admit folks who arrive later than ten minutes past the scheduled start time.
