Personal Narrative: Working At KTXT

I had so many different dreams about my future, it is amazing when you are a child, you have dream such as being a mother, a wife, becoming a pop star, creating an amusement park and writing story books. It was only later, that realize that was a fantasy. Life has taught me is valued and to understand my worth, qualities, and skills, which allowed me to be the person, I am today. Working at Taco Bell has taught me about being responsible and accountable for my action as well considered by others. There are many roles that make this job run smoothly: that being on time for work matter, and making sure I know my schedule, is what taco bell expected from me. I learned that the key to making customers keep coming back over and over is a warm smile,

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.

As teenager, many people say their adolescence is one of the most important phases in anyone’s life. As a teenager, you get to experience many great events like going to high school football games, dating your first boyfriend or girlfriend, getting your driver license, and graduating from high school. As I look back, I believe that getting my first job was the most important event in my adolescence. I was very enthusiastic about getting my first job. I enjoyed that fact that I will be able to earn my own money and not having to ask my mother for any earn. Surprising, there was only one obstacle that was holding me back and that was the fact that I was a

When I was working at Target there were two mangers that I was to train and help if they needed it. The conflict was that they come in and changed everything in our stations. Which was uncomfortable due to that I had more experience and was working there longer. Nothing work well within the ream after that point.

Have you ever tried something new? Well I did one day at Kroger a few years ago. It felt funny, because no one else in my family but my dad would eat the food, and it was also a really weird food.

While attending UMD, I have held four different jobs. My main job is a summer internship through Bolton & Menk, Inc. I worked there this past summer and was re-hired for this upcoming summer. My job duties included data entry, construction observation, field measurements, and daily field reports for many multi million dollar road construction projects around the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community and Mystic Lake Hotel. I observed the installation of storm sewer pipes and service entrances in addition to doing field calculations to correct pipe grades. I also observed parking lot and roadway preparation and asphalt laydown. Concrete work was checked and tested for compliance with state regulations in addition to checking string lines for

I am so glad to be at New Tech. Being here has changed my world. I love learning and being apart of all that New Tech means. There was a time that school was not as enjoyable and going to school each day was more of a chore than a positive experience. Since NTH@C has had such an impact on my life I am very motivated to be a part and give back to our campus. It is really important to be a part of something bigger than myself. When making decisions I always remain calm and think things through from beginning to end before making any decisions or sharing ideas. That is necessary while working with a group of people especially in an organizational setting. Listening to what others have to say is important to me. I am a good listener.

Hy-Vee helped me restart my life. At the beginning of August of 2016, my family moved from Hampton, Iowa to Mason City, Iowa. My dad’s job is in Mason City so it made sense for us to move. When my family moved, I didn’t know anyone up here and I needed to quit my job in Hampton as I wasn’t earning enough for it to outweigh the worth of the drive back and forth every weekend. I scoured the area for a job opening for weeks with several rejections and few promising results. Without friends or anything else to put my time and effort into, I started to drive myself insane.

Saturday afternoon I jump down from the tractor, splashing mud up my leg, coating my feet in unknown substances since I so naively decided to wear flip flops to work. I groan loudly, and gingerly climb into my truck to make my way home for lunch, glad I have a short day at work and can make my way home for a homemade burger. These have been my weekends for years, with the exception of winters where I am blessed enough to only have indoors work. My job at Windy Ridge Dairy has been time consuming and exhausting, yet beneficial. Full time in the summers and weekends during the school year, some weekdays, of work since 9th grade (summers since 7th) has been difficult, but I’ll never regret the traits such work has brought out in me.

I am a person who easily adapts to different professional and social environments. I have demonstrated ability to adapt flexible work practices during my employment with Prime Tooling and Blue Fox Systems. My ability to work flexibly was a key component of my employment with Blue Fox Systems. The office culture at Blue Fox was very fast paced and reactive in nature. It required constant attention to detail, the ability to re-prioritise, and flexibility. Being an IT organization, the pressure and demands upon each staff member required that we were able to take on whatever duty or priority task was required at the time, either as a member of a team or as an individual. In my daily work, I am flexible to leave what I am working on and assist

Currently I am a part-time employee at 3D Transport Limited, which is a Canadian cross border small business. The business, 3D Transport Limited is located in Brookswood, British Columbia, Canada established in 1993. The president of 3D Transport Limited is Sawraj Dhami, who has had over 25 years of experience in the transportation industry. The company emphasizes on transporting cargo such as: fresh produce, general freight, building materials, refrigerated food, beverages and paper products, providing these services to both Canada and America. The clientele includes large scale businesses such as Georgia Pacific, Mark Anthony, Cascades and many others. I will discuss my experience while working at 3D Transport, transportation unionization and alienation at work.

So I would like to point out I do work for a few different businesses in Southern Maine, but my job at the Cross Insurance Arena is slightly different. We are under new management which is overseen by Comcast Spectator which runs multiple venues throughout the country. And in the case of Cross Insurance Arena full time employees are told that, “The Cross Insurance Arena can’t afford employee parking,” therefore there’s always been a struggle to find a parking let alone pay for it.

During my time with the SRT team, along with serving many high-risk warrants, I conducted numerous operations involving multiple organizations and tactical teams throughout the DC area. On several occasions these have included high level events such as World Summits, Presidential Inaugurations, speeches, etc. While supporting events such as the Nuclear Summit the SRT has been immersed in tactical operations and tactical operations centers utilized in direct support of the United States Secrete Service and other tactical commands.

Well, this has been another busy week. I had the interview with Techquality Health 2.0 diversity in health technology mentorship program about what they could do to help me with my project. It turns out they are more interested in helping with research in healthcare technology that the scholar is developing, more on a PhD level. Anyway, I completed my eight-week course with Future Learn over two weeks because I had most of the work already done. I would not say it was a waste of time. It helped me to rethink my project from the beginning, and I learned things I had not known about the research process such as keeping a journal of my research process and making sure my project is achievable and the potential it has to contribute

Coming to work for ESPN was an extremely new experience for me knowing that I've only had knowledge from an agency standpoint. However, working here for the past five months on the project management team and under the supervisor of Janene Monty was everything I expected and more. They've made my first 5 months so uplifting and smooth. I've had the opportunity to touch sports properties that I've never heard of and would've never, had I not come to work at ESPN.
