A supermarket worker has been praised for going the 'extra mile' after learning sign language so she could communicate with deaf customers.
The 22-year-old, known only as Casey, was inspired to learn Auslan (Australian Sign Language) when a local deaf couple became regulars at the Woolworths supermarket in Maryborough, Australia.
The deli assistant wanted to be able to communicate better with the customers and dedicated her spare time to learning basic greetings and different weight volume measures using YouTube videos.
