Aaron Peeper has worked as a member of the Food Services team at The New England Center for Children since February 2019. During that time, Aaron has earned the reputation as a hard worker and team player. “He delivers dinners to residential houses three times a week, which is beyond his normal work hours, and is always accommodating and flexible in helping when others can’t make their dinner deliveries,” said a colleague. “His overall demeanor makes him a team player beyond his own team. Our Food Services team is highly sought after for one thing or another within this building and he is someone who always lends a smile with any ‘ask.’”
What is a typical day like in your job?
A typical day in my job starts at 6 a.m. when I prepare the truck with food and storage supplies that may be needed at various residences. Depending on the day, I help our food distributors with getting food stored at the residences. Each week I stop at every residence to ensure that all teams have sufficient food and supplies.
