Work Experience

This past summer, I took a job as a bartender which taught me many lessons that apply to every workplace. I don't necessarily have a specific project related to it but I do have new found attributes. This was the first job where I had been subjected to a fast paced environment. Working in an cramped space, where we're working on top of each other teaches the significance of teamwork. The better the communication the more efficient you work. I quickly learned that to stay ahead of the pace you had to think a few steps ahead and communicate that with your teammates. That clear line of communication led to success and happier customers. The other important aspect I learned was the importance of being personable and how that affects a workplace. Taking the time to get to know people and ask questions goes a long way. When your trying something new like I did getting to know those around you and how they work is a great way of improving your own craft. These two traits are important in every job but in business I'm confident it will help me add to a work environment and benefit a company.
