"Hello. My name is Cody Cutter, I am a cashier at the East End Shell (No. 18) in Sterling.

I recently had my hours cut to two nights a week because of a new hire there. I'm a college student still in the process of paying my tuition. Therefore, I'm attempting to seek out more hours.

My family has worked with, or for, Johnson Oil for four generations in some capacity (clerk or electrical work), and I really like working for Mr. Johnson.

I currently work from 5:00 PM to closing time (12:00) on Saturday and Sunday nights. I attend class at Sauk Valley Community College on Monday and Tuesday nights. I am usually at a high school football game every Friday night. This leaves Wednesday and Thursday nights open.

What I would like to do is NOT to cut someone else's hours. Therefore, here's what I would like to propose:

If the person you have scheduled to work on Wednesday night or Thursday night calls off, I would like to be included as an emergency backup. Obviously, you can call your store's workers first before me.

If you are a 24-hour store, I am available "Monday into Tuesday", Tuesday into Wednesday", "Wednesday into Thursday", and "Thursday into Friday."

I have worked the night shift at East End for over a year, and rarely ever do the morning and afternoon (mid) shifts. So I'm used to the night shift. Before working at East End, I spent 19 months as overnight lead at a BP. In my time at East End (btw - we work with RUBY registers), I have passed the Mystery Shopper four times and passed sting operations. A couple of negatives (what is mentioning positives without negatives?) would be that I have not worked with a scratch-off lotto machine, and rarely make food.

I have only missed work once in my time at East End, and have an ability to make the customer feel welcome at the store - in other words, they are not treated as customers who bring in money, but rather people who choose us as their "go-to" place in which we should appreciate.

Thanks for your time in reading this, and if you have any questions please let me know.

I'm determined to go to as many JO's as possible. Any attempt to stop this will be looked at as an attempt to destroy me.
