We started our shift at 10:30 🕑 just in time to help with unloading the delivery trucks. Once all have been moved to the main hall, the tasks we tackled this time were as follows:

  • stocking the fridges❄️ - placing the products on appropriate shelves meat 🍖 at the bottom, veggie stuff 🌱 in the middle, and dairy 🥛 on the top;
  • assembling and labelling assorted packages of pastries 🥐 - this time very generous set of 5 x pastries per bag;
  • labelling ready to eat meals 🍲 - so the shoppers would know what's in the package and when it arrived;
  • checking and sorting veggie supplies 🥕🍅🥬 - making sure they are in a good enough shape to go on the shelves;
  • sorting a mix of food on the racks 🍝🥫 - all to keep the products nice and tidy ready for the shoppers tomorrow.

There was a couple of volunteers from GoodGym but also 4 x other regulars so we had a big team to tackle today's tasks. The shift manager was really pleased with the progress and said that the next shift will really happy having no "leftover" work to do.
