Tyler Jackson

Proudly Serving: Sobeys #729, Amherst, NS

Position: Front End Clerk

Core Value: Stay Real

When he was being interviewed for a job as a front-end clerk, a manager asked Tyler what he liked to do in his spare time. “I can do anything,” the young man replied. “I just need someone to give me a chance.” His boss decided to be that someone and the decision to hire Tyler, who lives with a disability, is one he has never regretted. Tyler says he’s confident in his abilities and it shows every day at work. “I’m a hard worker and can do anything they want me to do,” adding that he gets his work ethic from his mother, who works three jobs. “Customers come first,” says Tyler, who has worked for Sobeys for 11 years. “Sometimes I make their day and help them out with their groceries to their car.” Tyler says he likes to stay active and his job at the store is a great fit. “I don’t let anything stop me from what I like doing.”
