My First Work Experience : My Experience Of Working In A Company

Everyone has their first memory when they have to enter the adult world, mine just happened to be my junior year of high school. This year was just a little glimpse of what was going to be the rest of my life. Getting my first job was bitter sweet. I had to learn how to manage my time between school, sports, and now a job. After my first week of school I had to start my new job.

I realized after being able to handle an angry customer positively, I have matured working at Wendy’s. To be able to not step out of character when someone you don’t know is yelling at you because of tomatoes is huge. Having a job helped me practice professional skills. I also had to learn to save money because the same weekend I got my check I spent half of it. My first job made me feel like a complete adult, and although it was stressful, maturing is a step in life I knew I was going to face soon

So i worked there for about six months already and figured that the money isn't getting me anywhere quick to i thought how would it be like to have two jobs. My mom had told me that her boss was looking to hire a new receptionist. I thought hey maybe i could work with you. I was about to be 17 and i was so close to getting that car i've been needing. So the boss hired me and when i started working there and at my other job i learned that having two jobs wasn't easy at all. I had to wake up early at 7:00am every day to work at my receptionist job. Once i got done there at 5:00 pm I went to my Grocery store job and worked until 12 at night. All I kept telling myself was that i needed this car and was going to do everything in my power to get it. I was sleep deprived but when i did get sleep it was like heaven. Staying healthy while i had my two jobs wasn't easy either. I never ate breakfast and i always felt like never had enough energy during the day. When i would eat i would have to spend money on lunch because i never had time to make any in the morning and all i would buy is fast food and junk. When i got hoe from the grocery store job my parents would have dinner ready for me but it was all cold and then i wouldn't even feel like

After working at McDonalds for three weeks, I began to make new friends and was glad that I didn’t decide to quit my job. I enjoyed that I could earn my own money and didn’t have to ask my mother for money anymore. Work had been great after the first customer incident happened. I had not received any customer complaints and my manager said that I might employee of the

I graduated high school back in 1994. I was engaged to be married in just two years, and even though I joined the Pennsylvania Air National Guard right after graduation it was only one weekend a month and two weeks out of the year. So I needed a full-time job. A friend of the family knew a guy who was opening a second store, and was going to need a store manager. I took the job and got started. What I didn’t know was the guy I was just hired to work for was a little confused as to what he wanted. I hung onto the job for a little over a year hoping it would turn around but, no dice.

At the beginning of this school year, I began to realize something. I realized that my high school years were coming to an end. This was an eye opener for me. I didn't know what to expect of my last year nor what I wanted to do after high school. I then began looking for a job. So I applied to Chick-fil-a. I waited patiently several weeks for a call, but received no call whatsoever. I patiently waited for a new opportunity to come along. Until finally, I was given an opportunity at an electrical shop. On the first day of work I was introduced to the staff and learned the procedures of what needed to be done. My job now was to maintain the shop clean and to keep all materials organized as well as other tasks that helped me grow with my skills.

I have not had very much experience as an employee during my youth. My first time doing real world work was the day that I volunteered at my father’s office at the New York City Department of the Aging for two hours. It was apparently a day off from work because no one other than him, myself, and his supervisor were there, but I helped my father organize and file some papers. After my brief stint as a volunteer, my first, and only, actual job I was paid for was over this summer at the Eileen Abraham Insurance Agency. I got the job through a program called the Summer Youth Employment Program (SYEP). This program helped young adults, like myself, get summer jobs around the city in various different fields. I specifically chose the Eileen

After two years the house I owned and operated the daycare in began to have issues forcing me to sell the house and close my business. The discussion made me question whether the path I chose was the right one. Unable to decide what I wanted to do next I stumbled into applying for jobs in retail. I had no experience in retail, but was hired as a shift supervisor at a pharmacy because the manager was actually planning to hire a nanny in the future thought I was a good back up plan. As a shift supervisor in one of the largest pharmacies on the North shore that was used as a training store for new managers, I quickly learned different types of management skills and excelled at training employees at all different levels. The patience, calm demeanor and time management skills I used during my time running a daycare

The steps I took to become an employee at the CAPS program as a Youth leader were painstaking and got so difficult to the point where I was ready to give up at each new obstacle, working for CAPS program helped me achieve a self gratification that no restaurant or fast food industry would ever grant me. Working at Sundowners Family Restaurant, I was able to interact with some amazing people, such as coworkers and the regulars that would recognize me each time they came to enjoy their meal. My first job had an impact on me and what I wanted for my future, I knew I didn 't want to be like most workers there and settle for that place I wanted to do something with my life. A few months after working there I decided to enroll at Valley and do something with my life. The food industry creates a fast pass rush that challenges workers to try their best so customers can enjoy our services,

After I chose to take some time from school, I turned out to be ill and soon was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis.This had an enormous effect on my life and truly altered the course of life, I was compelled to back off and truly concentrate on my well being. Despite everything I needed to work, so I took a part time position at Victoria's Secret. The energy at Victoria's Secret, truly made me love the Fashion business and what I sought for my future.I had been with the company for nearly four years and had my health at a really good place and had been elevated to a full-time position. Victoria's Secret had a ton of private events and I was put in charge of the beauty department this included applying cosmetics and doing makeovers for the

Leaving school meant that I had to go look for a job to support myself. Finding a job was easy than most people made it sounded to be as I acquired a job in less than three days at a temp agency. Never in my life have I ever had a real job this was my first job, but I did have experience working with my dad on fixing houses. The job was an assembly company where they build lawnmowers; the management that I was placed under was a nightmare, laziest boss in the world. Shortly after gaining experience I was promoted to a lead operator, a small manager, this was the first time that I was over twenty people who were all older than me. The company was quite terrifying as people were getting laid off and production was slow. At one point there were

When I was a kid, I couldn’t wait until I was old enough to get a job. Sure, it would be a good way to make friends and learn how to prepare myself for the real world, but for me, it was mostly about making my own money. Having to ask my parents for cash every time I needed some annoyed me, mostly because they’d always say no. Every time they did, I would always whine and complain about how different things would be when I had money of my own, how I would never ask them for anything, and so on. This wasn’t entirely true, but at the time it seemed like a smart thing to say. I must’ve applied to dozens of jobs, and when I finally got the email telling

Although I accepted the job offer that my old boss extended my way I didn’t think that I’d be in retail sales for any long period of time. I thought that it was the best decision I had especially being unemployed since moving home. In making the decision to go back into retail sales it got my parents off my back about finding a job and it also got me out of the house for a couple hours a day. At the time I was okay with going back into retail sales but I wasn't planning on it being longer term what so ever.

the end of the week some of them could to these tasks. I also helped

The scent of fresh waffles, sound of radio pop music, light from the open sign. Just another long day at work. Everything is just like the usual. Restock utensils, greet customers, take orders, collect payments, and clean up. At seventeen, wanting to save up for my post-secondary tuition, I decided to work a part time job alongside school. I thought that not only does it give me money, it can also give me valuable work experience. Working at a part time job sounds like a perfect opportunity for me. However, after this experience, my perspective of working in the service industry completely changed.
