I work at a place called Kid Zone. Kid Zone is a children’s party place. At Kid Zone I am a floor girl. A floor girl’s job is very easy, but it can wear you out.
There are two floor girls to an average party. Once the party starts, one girl stands by the door, greets the guests, and takes the shoes, jacket, and gifts of the guests. Then gives the children a nametag. The other floor girl stands on the mats and keeps the children who have already arrived, under control. About fifteen minutes into the party, we start with some games. Usually hot potato, limbo, and musical chairs. By this time the pizza should have arrived. We then serve the adults and children their food and a beverage. When everyone is finished eating, one girl cleans off the tables while the other girl plays freeze dance. Everyone who plays wins a prize. After freeze dance, the character of choice will come out and perform three dances with the children. The character then sings happy birthday and leaves while the girls serve the cake. The girls then have about fifteen minutes to play another game, usually potato sack races, and start cleaning for the next party.
“It is not a hard job, but organization skills are very important in throwing a smooth flowing party.” quotes Christina Messina, a hostess at Kid Zone. This is necessary because you have a set amount of things that have to be done in a certain amount of time.
Also I believe patience is another quality you must possess to do this job. Patience according to the Webster’s Dictionary is defined as demonstrating uncomplaining endurance under distress. You have to be very patient. Working with loud, out of control children all day can be very stressful. You have to deal with children not listening to the rules, fighting, climbing on ropes and walls, throwing toys and balls from the ball pit. When you are dressed up as a character, the pull your tail or your ears, try to unzip the back of the costume, and even try to pull your head off. Sometimes this can be very annoying, but you have to keep your self-control under all circumstances.
Enthusiasm is another quality that one must obtain. You are constantly on your feet all day. Not only are you just on your feet, but you are running around, playing with children, while trying to make sure all the adults have everything they need.
...en I have a goal. I work hard and don't give up easily. I am a perpetual optimist always looking to the future and learning from my mistakes rather than letting them pull me down. I have a certain amount of natural intelligence, and what I lack I make up for with persistence and tenacity. I have an inherent belief that I will accomplish my goals that keeps me positive and pursuing my goals even when it is difficult to do so.

Parents and friends head out of the school in search of a close meal while dance teams and coaches head downstairs to the cafeteria. Located next to the boy’s locker room the small lunch room is at the bottom of two flights of stairs. Red pillars support the low ceiling and round tables are quickly claimed by each team. The dancers take the lunch break to relax for a short time between dance categories. Coaches lay out sandwich fixings for their team and the teams grab paper plates and napkins to place their lunches on. When the teams are finished with their lunches they all head back to their assigned rooms to prepare for the second half of the
Many things come to mind when you begin to imagine this “party.” Such as, upbeat music, dancing, exciting events, and of course A LOT of people.
Moira’s Birthday party is a funny book full of chaos and fun. The book starts with Moira asking her parents for a birthday party. She wants to invite grades k-6 to her party but her parents say that's too many and to only invite six kids. She goes to school the next day and gets cared away and invites k-6 but doesn't tell her parents. On her birthday six kids show up and her parents start the party but soon 100 more kids show up. Her parents freak out and start worrying about how to feed all the kids. Moira comes up with an idea to feed them all. She calls the pizza place and a bakery and asks for 100 of each. They say that's impossible and can only do six, so they sent them six. This isn't enough to feed all the kids, so the kids go and bring
Enthusiasm is magical, and it is judged that the motivation of the leaders has a great role in motivating the employees. It depends on how well the leader motivates him. Leader is the motivational source for the followers which can draw the best out of nothing.
Then we have the preparation of the directress who's role is to guide the child to areas that will help him fulfill his needs. However, to be able to guide the child correctly, the director needs to have certain attributes, spiritually, mentally and physically that has to be taken into consideration so she can be ready to work in a prepared environment. First, spiritually, the director has to develop the capability of observing the child without being noticed, but yet has to also be present and pay attention to the child and not just look at the bigger picture. Next the director has to be patient, enough that she will hold herself when wanting to interrupt a child when an error occurs during their activity. Gilda Bonnet wrote "It is a time
I must confess that I have a serious condition of Senioritis. To overcome Senioritis, I must stay positive and motivate myself to fight against it. Motivation is meaningful and valuable for individuals, including myself who value growth and development. It acts as a fuel for determination as it guides and activates my independence and behaviour overtime. Furthermore, motivation is often associated with ambitions. Often times, I am only motivated after setting up a specific goal and once it is achieved, I feel a sense of satisfaction. This sense of fulfillment from completing a task comes from intrinsic motivation which refers to a change in behaviour that is fuelled by internal factors including challenging one’s ability, the curiosity in doing

While I was a in my teens and even in my college years I remember many strange and miserable jobs. I quit in the middle of jobs. I thought some jobs would be great but eventually turned out to be not for me. Some jobs I quit after a few minutes, even jobs that I expressed to my boss what I thought about him. That wasn’t always the best idea. I am so grateful that after a great deal I can honestly say I am glad to have a career. At one point I had a job I very much disliked yet it was funny at the same time at one particular moment. The job was trying to sell a “special” vacuum cleaner. This job was the first in the sales area for me. The one thing I hated was going house to house. I would knock at people’s doors and beg them to buy the vacuum. I was just a trainee when I started this new job and had looked at the videos the company instructed me to watch to optimize my selling potential. Once all the class work was done we had to go out five days straight a field trainer, there were many doors to be knocked on.
Motivation is key in the workplace. It is developed from the collaboration of both conscious and unconscious principles such as the strength of desire or need, motivating force or reward estimation of the objective, and desires of the person and of his or her peers/co-workers. These elements are the reasons one has for carrying on a specific way.
