!!!MY FINAL WEEK @ J0ES!!! :(

As the semester ends, think back over the last few months. What experience has been most valuable to you?
I've had some experiences during the time I have been working at Jittery Joes. I have met so many new pwople while I've been working up here and just being able to have worked up there has been an experience for me. I had never worked a register before because i really didnt know how to and that's one of the things that i learned and mainly did while i was up there. It wasn't a hard job at all and I'm looking forward to doing it again.

!!!WEEK 11 @ J0ES!!!

What job do you ideally want? What skills will you need to hone in order to get that job? What educational background is required? How does this class help you to train for these things?
My ideal job would definetely have to be Cosmetology. I need many skills for this job. Like knowing how to do hair. And not only that, if Im trying to have my own business then i have to know how to handle money carefully especially if im going to be saleing any products. I think this class can help me out on any money related things and also with customer service.

!!!WEEK 9 @ JOES!!!

What has been the most difficult part of your job at Jittery Joe's? What would you change if you could?
Most difficult part of working at Jittery Joes would probably be having to wake up early if you're working in the mornings. but other then that nothing is really difficult, at the beginning I was having some problems with working the register, but then i got a hang of it, until we got the new register, but i got a hang of that too..

!!WEEK 8 @ JOES!!!

Now that you have legitimate work experience (if you did not already) do you feel differently about the way you spend money? Assume you earned minimum wage for working at Jittery Joe's instead of course credit. How does that change the value of money in your eyes?
I'm a very crazy, careless spender. Whenever I have money, no matter how much it is, I always end up spending it on whatever I like. But I think that if i was to be making money I would actually be more careful, and responsible on how im spending and actually try to save up by separating my saving money from my spending money.
Have you had a bad customer experience? Without using names or identifying information, explain what happened and how you resolved the situation.
I have never had any bad experiences with any customers while I've been working at Joes.

!!!WEEK 6 @ JOES!!!

Describe how you feel physically while working. What changes or stays the same as you work?
I never really physically change while im working only when it's packed then I have to speed up and finish an order to get to the next orders. There have been times when it's so many people up there you just forget what you're doing while you're doing it, but I've gotten through it and gotten so used to it it rarely happens.

!!!WEEK 5 @ JOES!!!

Has there been a time where you made an error either with money or dealing with a customer? Explain what happened and how you corrected it. What will you do differently next time?
I haven't really had any problems when it comes to handling money or serving a customer, just when I really don't know how to make certain stuff like lattes. And whenever that's the problem I either call Mrs. Scredon over to help me or I'll just ask whoever is up there working with me if they known how to make them. Other then that money is never a problem.
