Greely Containment and Rework LTD April 2009 -Nov2014
Oshawa, Ontario
Liason
Worked for greely 2 times, the first as a general outsourced worker, and this last time as a
“Liason” (supervisor) at a outsourced manufacturer in Ajax. There I was responsible for 3 to 9
employees and the several "sorts". Sometimes there would be 5 different sorts at different areas
in a 4 km area.
This job entailed doing parts inspection and quality control usually at several different locations
at the General Motors /Oshawa plant.
The production line running smoothly at all times means the difference of hundreds of
thousands of dollars per minute so any type of defect and interruption means answers to be
found and received and reports several times a day. We manufactured Cadillac and Impala
front and rear ends. Responsible for submitting hours worked and production numbers daily to
head office and worked several sorts with electronic scanners submitting fails and approvals.

The Baby BucketChildren’sStore April 2007 –Aug 2009
Pickering, Ontario
Manager/Owner
In 2006 my wife and I were expecting our second child, we starting a web based baby clothing
and accessories business. In 6 months our home was stacked to the roof with orders and
inventory. We then decided to take the risk of expanding into a 2500 square foot store front in a
plaza in Pickering. By the time 12 months had passed we were considering a move to a larger
store front.
I was the day to day operations manager for the store.
I took an old run down ice cream parlour and renovated it with the help of my wife and father,
we ended up with a beautiful store that expectant moms to be and parents with little ones loved
to come and spend time browsing and the kids play area was always a happy place.
We sold clothing, strollers, cribs, toys and other novelty items like baby cd’s of lullaby style rock
classics.
We employed 2 students for the warmer months and our daughter Ruby was socialized in her 2
years playing at the greatest toy store making new friends every day. Unfortunately we had to
close down with the illness of my mother and step dad almost simultaneously.
