  • System Management: Working within the AS/400 platform to execute scheduling, track shipments for customers, and perform other necessary system tasks.

  • Documentation & Compliance: Printing labels, adding comments to justify non-service deliveries, and ensuring proper company policy and safety guidelines are followed.
