Life is peanuts

I've made it through the first 3 days. I am starting to get the hang of things. I've shadowed a couple of the lab techs this week and learned a little about what they do. I've been learning about the different paper work and records I'll need to keep. It's been interesting. At this plant we make dry roasted peanuts, honey roasted peanuts, peanut toppings and peanut butter.

The company I work for is named John B Sanfilippo & Sons. There are 5 different plants in the company. The headquarters is located in Elgin, IL. There are plants in Garysburg, NC, Selma, TX, and Gustine, CA as well as the one in Bainbridge, GA. They do private labels as well as their own brand, Fisher Nuts. Our Plant only processes peanuts but I can get all the different nuts the company makes at an employee discount.

I am enjoying working and am looking forward to working for this company for a long time.
