Lineman, Dumper, and Packer

May 2014 - Aug 2014
At the Kindig Lane Facility in Hanover, PA; I was responsible for packing products ranging from small to large bags and barrels. Other responsibilities included dumping for the Pub Mix/Party Mix/Poker Mix/Pretzel Mix/Uncle Buck's Cabin Mix lines and a lineman, who stacks skids of product and scanned them into the computer system. Lastly, I was in charge of training new employees to dump product. This required me to be with them for one week shadowing them and explaining the rules and regulations of Utz. During the first week of training, questions regarding the rules were asked and documented with the new employee, our supervisor, and myself. Show less
