Joseph
Joseph got it!
Meet Joseph, a young man who finds pure joy in work and physical activity (best if combined). While he's capable of tackling any task, he has a particular fondness for sweeping, cleaning, and organizing. Not only does Joseph excel in these areas, but he also takes immense pride and satisfaction in ensuring that every task is performed flawlessly, with results that speak for themselves.
Got a heavy box that needs lifting? Joseph's your guy. Restaurant floor not up to your standards? He'll sweep it until it shines. Joseph's passion for seeing a job well done is evident in every task he undertakes, a trait he proudly demonstrates at Blaze Burgers, where he has earned paid shifts assisting with portioning and cleaning.
Way to go, Joseph!

Joseph is a valued employee whom the PASS Employment Program takes pride in. His work experience includes restocking shelves and bins at NADA Zero Waste Grocery. After Sweetery Cafe closed, where Joseph was performing cleaning tasks, he transitioned to a paid position at Blaze Burgers. There, he not only helps with cleaning but also portions the food and restocks supplies.

You got it!
Joseph always does his best to excel at work (which he does), and he ensures that his job coaches have faith in him (yes, you “got it! Joseph”).
However, there are times when Joseph can finally relax and release the everyday pressures and challenges. One such occasion is during PASS annual trips to Playland.
Joseph loves the rides, especially the swings; the higher, the faster, the scarier… the better. He is the first in line for "The Beast," and while others may have had their fill, Joseph is just getting started!
