By Lincoln Holt, VIC

My name is Lincoln Holt.

I work at a fruit and vegetable shop. I like working in the pasta section and I’m good at stacking the shelves. I also have another job that I’m going to start as well but it hasn’t started yet because of COVID.

I love my job because it’s busy and keeps me entertained.

I am really great at helping customers to find things.

It’s important to give people with Down syndrome a chance because we want to be independent.

Having a job makes me feel mostly happy.

    Hi Lincoln, Congratulations on having two jobs!! (I don’t even have one!). It sounds as if you’re a great asset to the fruit & veg shop you describe here, & I’m sure they feel very lucky to have found such a capable, cheerful & friendly member of staff. Good luck with the other one when it starts up. Take care & keep up the good work! Warmest regards Jude
