For many consumers Empire club is a gateway to jobs in the
community. At least 50% of Empire Club consumers have jobs. Each week after
stopping off at the empire club some of the consumers continue on their way to
various jobs in the area. Empire Club's role is to serve as employment agent and
support institution for these worker clients. Employers range all the way The
Sagamore Hotel in Bolton landing to Kentucky Fried Chicken and the Red Lobster.
Here are what a few of The Empire Club members have to say
about their work experience.
Michele Centerbar works 11:00 to 5:00 one week as a
housekeeper at the Sagamore hotel. She has worked there three years as a member
of a three man cleaning team. She finds her job interesting
especially since other members of her family work there. The money she
makes isn’t bad either and allows her to go shopping with her mom.
Tom Moses works three days a week from 10:30 to 3:00 at
Kentucky fried chicken as a bus boy. For four years Tom has been responsible for
keeping the Dining area at KFC a clean attractive place to eat. As you can
imagine the job keeps him very busy and time goes quickly. Tom, a very social
person, also enjoys working with his fellow employees.
Marie Macker is another Empire Club client that works at
the Sagamore. Marie also works as a housekeeper. Twice a week for the past 4
summers Marie has been picked up at Empire club and taken to the Sagamore where
she works from 11:00 to 5:00. As a senior worker she often has responsibility
for training new staff.
John Hillis works for the village of Lake George
keeping the village and water front attractive for the many tourists that come
to visit each year. It is an important job and he does it well as any one who
has enjoyed a summer stroll along the Lake George WaterFront can attest.
