Letter: Employer provides family wages

The Columbian
Published: August 28, 2013, 5:00pm

For the past two years, I have been an intern at Millennium Bulk Terminals. This opportunity has allowed me to work with an incredible group of people who have taught me skills that will help me throughout my professional career. Not only has my internship helped me develop as a professional, it has also allowed me to support myself and pay off my college tuition.

As a recent graduate, I hope to find myself working for this company when it’s up and fully running. This facility is not only a great opportunity for me, but it’s also a great opportunity for our entire community. It will supply jobs to people who desperately need them and provide a wage that will support their entire family. This job site already supported my family long before I was born. My grandpa worked for the former facility of Reynolds Metals and my mom and brother worked on this site for many years. I hope Millennium will get the opportunity to continue supporting my family and many others in the near future.
