Arrived to the store at 12, the employees were very welcoming and more than excited to help. I was able to start my shift right away. As expected, it wasn’t so easy to get people’s attention or open the conversation at first, but I got used to it pretty quick. Noticing that couples and middle aged women (especially with a trolley) were way more likely to be interested and donate helped me target the perfect customers and save some energy in this 6 hours shift. Everyone was lovely and we were able to collect a good amount of food at the end of the day. Always a pleasure to help, it was an enjoyable experience overall.
