“Since her first day, which was supposed to be orientation, Maleeyah was alone processing clothes with no trainer or any other employees- It was just coach and Maleeyah. She tries to figure things out on her own before seeking help and even taught her coach how to use gun to manually price tag clothes, how to refill it with tags, and much more! Within a short period of time, she has impressed her coach with her work ethic, and I hope she carries her good work ethic on to the next level in life.” – Maleeyah’s Job Coach
