Working Group Shifts

Between opening the store, receiving goods, checking out customers, stocking shelves & filling bins, taking calls & sweeping up, there's a lot of other stuff that goes on at the 4th Street Co-op.

If you would like to be an integral part of the Co-op, but don't have a schedule that is suited to covering a standard shift, or simply want to focus on something that requires a specific set of skills, consider taking on a non-traditional shift.

Some of these shifts are very flexible, and can be done from home/while traveling, once/month or even once/3 months, etc.

These are some identified needs, if you have other skills or experience that you feel would be useful, get in touch with us and let us know about it.

This list is being rolled into the Working Groups, and is not currently being updated. Please contact working groups for information on unfilled roles. (5.29.10-Lippe)
