Justin's Story

"Laurie and I did a lot of preparation and exploration of jobs for me, we spent quality time discussing accommodations , schedule and growth opportunities that were important to me.

My start time was critical so I could be there for my children after school and then I was available weekends, the store provided this for me as well as keeping my shift lengths to a certain number of hours that worked for my mobility.

I was hired at Home Depot when Covid protocols were in place and I was a Greeter/Health and Safety Ambassador but they saw something in me and I was offered opportunities for other roles. I continue to enjoy my role and appreciate the chance for growth as this remains a very important factor to me.

It took approximately 9 months of time from registration with Laurie until I started working but I can honestly say I have a found a Good Fit, my hours allow me to be there for my family and I feel like a valued member of the team and look forward to what happens next!"
