I completed 1 month of work experience with Card Factory where I started by stacking shelves in the stock room and making sure it was clean and tidy by health and safety rules. I got some experience with working with customers on the shop floor, responding to their queries about where certain products were located and if they need any help, I spoke to them in a calm and friendly matter and made sure they were the first priority when I was busy doing other
On March 16, 2016, I interviewed Santi Wong. I went to the JP Morgan Corp, which is located at 270 Park Avenue New York City. She kindly gave me about thirty minutes for my interview. Santi is a very warm hearted and talkative person. She is really willing to help others. She is a banker who has been working at JP Morgan for a long time. The building of JP Morgan is a big structure. There were a lot of people walking in and out the building. People all seemed very busy on doing their business. Also, the security system of JP Morgan is very good. All the people need to swipe their card before they enter the building. The guests need to get a guest card and swipe it before they enter.
I believe in that to be a success in life I have to have experiences in my life story to improve myself, abilities and skills. This will add a lot to my social, and managerial experience too. My work experience started at the Amazon Palace International Restaurant as an Executive Manager. That was the fascinating experience I have consolidated my skills of taking responsibility for the business performance of the restaurant, analyzing and planning restaurant sales levels and profitability, organizing marketing activities, such as promotional events and discount schemes. Moreover, I was preparing reports weekly and monthly, including staff control food control and sales. My duties were unlimited to creating and executing plans for department sales, profit, and staff development, setting budgets and/or agreeing on them with senior management. Further, planning and coordinating menus. All that time I was supported by my support team.
I was able to go on a mission trip to Minnesota Native American Reservation, Squaw Lake when I was 13. I learned the four Spiritual laws, and I accepted Christ through the training. I was able to share the Good News to mostly to teens and kids. His Holy Spirit deeply filled my life, and I wanted to grow my passion for God.
I have worked in a shop, dealing with the day-to-day running of the business, attending to customers' needs and handling money, which has been a good introduction to the world of work and its demands - punctuality, reliability and honesty.
I wake up in the morning and I can feel the bracelet sliding down my arm as I get up. The bracelet feels warmer than usual, this maybe because my arms are covered with blankets that make it warm during the night. When I wake up in the morning my bracelet has no distinct smell…but when I am getting ready I put perfume on that lingers on to the bracelet throughout the day. So it smells fruity almost like fresh berries that you would smell as you walk through the produce section of the grocery store. But a good smell, fresh and fruity.
When I obtained my first job at China Grill in August of 2017, I was a nervous wreck. Unfortunately, being convinced that my boss would act with hostile intentions built a foundation for my anxiety to stand on. The outcome in reality is that she was jovial, always offering me Chinese candy to snack on and being incredibly patient when I misunderstood her instructions. Although my boss was marvelous, completing monetary transactions with the customers would force my anxiety levels to spike, causing heavy reliance on the calculator to determine the amount of change to return to a guest. If a customer began to seem impatient, panicking was my next course of action. This usually resulted in the customer getting the wrong amount of change back.
When I was growing up, I was usually pretty shy and talking to people that I didn’t know was not my strong suit. My dad was always a very big conversation guy, and I don’t think we could ever leave the store in under 30 minutes due to him talking to people all the time. I was not like that, when he would be chatting away with some random person, I would always keep quiet. I knew that this had to change in order for me to succeed in life. With this in mind, I decided to take a job at our local Hy-Vee in Fairfield, Iowa. At first, I was still a little quiet when I started working, but after just a few weeks, I could see myself starting to meet a lot of new people. I opened up and relationships started to arise out of nowhere. Now, whenever I go almost anywhere around town, I will see someone that I have gotten to know through Hy-Vee, and a conversation will arise even outside of my workplace. Getting the job at Hy-Vee has helped spark a light in me to become more outgoing and charismatic.
For my experience in this field I went in and interview my dad and asked him about something’s that he does around the office and what the big part of his job is and he explicated. I found out that there are very high risks in this job because you are handling people’s money, when sometimes this is the customer’s whole life savings going into your hands to try to make money. This would work well with me because I am very good with numbers which, leads to being really good in math. From the interview I also learned that you have to be a people’s person because most of the job is trying to get people to let you handle their most in return for a commission or a part of the money that will be made. I learned that this job will be me sitting at a desk for most of the day and sometimes sitting down with old customers or new customers deciding what route they want to take with their money. I liked that my dad is very dexterous or skillful.
I am doing my externship at Abeltin & Migoya LLP. Currently, I am assisting the supervising attorneys with drafting and responding to discovery. The first goal I would like to accomplish during the externship is to develop client interviewing skills. The second goal is to develop and learn good lawyering skills. The third goal is to build more confidence in asking questions and approaching new projects. I discussed all three these goals with my supervising attorney on the first day of my externship.
I remember the last time I was sick and how it interfered with my daily activities. My day started as usual, I ate breakfast and got dressed for work. I arrived at work and went about my usual customer service duties. By mid-morning, I remember feeling dizzy, hot and a bit nauseous. I took two Advil hoping to get rid of whatever bug I had picked up. Unfortunately, the Advil did not help. Not feeling any better, I had to leave work early. The customer service calls I couldn’t complete were given to my coworker. By the time I arrived home, I was coughing, sneezing, and fighting the strong urge to vomit. Even though I was not feeling well, I still had to make dinner for my son and feed our two cats. I wanted to cook chicken with onions and peppers
My experience at the Center for Social Innovation(CSI) or Fordham Foundry was underwhelming due to the lack of experienced people who were able to assist me. Being that I was unable to speak with the professor, I spoke with Anthony Parente and Enzo Obeso, two up and coming entrepreneurs who made their best efforts to inform me on what takes place at the Fordham Foundry.
For my internship I worked at Brother Luck Street Eats in Colorado Springs, off of Colorado and 10th street. They are open Tuesday through Sunday from 10am to 10pm. I worked morning shifts mainly because of scheduling conflicts with school and my other job. There were a couple catering events and night events I did work. In the mornings, I would help with prep for the day and working the line. By the end of my internship, Brother, the owner of Brother Luck Street Eats’, was so impressed by my work, he hired me on with his staff.
With the job I have, I have learned many valuable lessons and life skills. Along with a job, there comes responsibility. With the money I earned working, I wanted to buy my first phone instead of my parents buying it for me. It cost me 110 dollars!
The economy is getting better but it’s still rough. I know it’s still rough because everyone has two jobs. Let me give you an example, I ordered food from this place one time and it took an hour for the food to get delivered. An hour. That’s pretty standard somehow for internet delivery, and it was ok, because the food was delicious. But the second time, the second time that I ordered from them, the delivery took over two hours. Two hours. When you order food, you are already hungry, and I can handle an hour but two hours? Two hours? Let’s just say I was a little bit upset. So finally, after two hours, the guy gets to the door and he doesn’t hand me my food and leave, no, he holds onto to it. He’s standing in my doorway, looking past me, at
Another good way of looking for a job, is to actually walk into the store/place that may be a good place to work. Up at the customer service they have job applications. Ask one of ...
