  We investigate an algebraic model for the quantum oscillator based upon the
Lie superalgebra sh(2|2), known as the Heisenberg-Weyl superalgebra or "the
algebra of supersymmetric quantum mechanics", and its Fock representation. The
model offers some freedom in the choice of a position and a momentum operator,
leading to a free model parameter gamma. Using the technique of Jacobi
matrices, we determine the spectrum of the position operator, and show that its
wavefunctions are related to Charlier polynomials C_n with parameter gamma^2.
Some properties of these wavefunctions are discussed, as well as some other
properties of the current oscillator model.
