The "Elevation" of Education
Stories from GFAI's Industry Immersion Interns


Anna Kistner (SIU)

1/9/2025

 
​My job shadowing experience was completed at Gateway FS-Waltonville Elevator. During my time at the elevator I learned how to grade grain that was brought in by customers and grain that was shipped out by our truckers. I also helped with weighing inbound and outbound trucks as well as printing their tickets. I helped with payments that were received, prepared invoices, as well as ran daily reports. During wheat harvest I helped dump trucks as well as various other outside tasks such as keeping the grain swept up and the facilities safe. My favorite part was interacting with the customers and creating relationships with them that will help me in the future. I also enjoyed taking the crane to the top of the grain leg and replacing the American Flag.
