Asst. Director of Manufacturing
I oversee the manufacturing floor of a social enterprise that supports women healing from prostitution and addiction.
I help train our employees on how to make the products and how to use the machines. I also mentor the women who are still in our residential program. Once a month I get a forecast. I sit down with those numbers and break the report into different weeks. Then I'll assign women to different machines and find trainers for women who need to be trained. I also work on payroll and evaluations for employees. On top of all of that, I get to set my own goals to work towards.
"They want something from me. What do I have to do in return for this free support?"
