Today is #WorkerWednesday and we want to recognize Connie Schlosser, who is the head bookkeeper at Rosauers Supermarket #107 in Spokane, WA. Connie has worked for Rosauers for 40 years!

As a child, Connie has vivid memories of shopping for groceries at the Rosauers just down the street from her house. These days, Connie is a cornerstone of her community, with so many people having gotten to know her and appreciate the work she does in the store.

Connie is so well loved & respected by her coworkers and the community members who shop at Rosauers because she goes out of her way to ensure everyone is treated fairly. Many of her coworkers and fellow union members have commented on how she makes a real effort to support people, whether at work or off the clock; one colleague even said that “Connie is the store’s mom!” Connie is an excellent home baker; she will frequently surprise coworkers with homemade treats, whether they are celebrating someone’s birthday or just because it’s a Friday.

Connie loves her family and has been married for 31 years. One of the reasons she has stayed at Rosauers for 4 decades is because of the affordability and quality of her union healthcare, which has helped her raise 2 children. On her off time, Connie enjoys road trips to visit family and to see the sights at places like Leavenworth. Speaking of time off…after 40 years of working in grocery, Connie is looking forward to retirement! She doesn’t know exactly when it’ll happen, but she knows it’s coming soon.

Connie — thank you for all that you do to help coworkers, fellow union members, and folks in the community feel welcome and part of the team! We are excited for your well-deserved retirement and wish you all the best!
