Personal Narrative: Tim Hortons

My journey with Chick-fil-A began when I was 16 years of age. Even as a teenager, I understood the value of a dollar thanks to my parent’s direction. I wanted to have the freedom of driving my first car and beginning my financial future. As soon as construction began on Reynolds Road FSR, I recognized I wanted to work there. I completed my application online and delivered it to the trailer marked “Now Hiring” in the parking lot. Little did I fathom that this one act would transform my life forever. Rob Watkins opened the door and asked if I would come in for an interview later that week. I replied “sure” with much excitement. Later that week I went to the interview and Rob hired me on the spot as his first employee. I was ecstatic! The paperwork

Yum. Tim Hortons. Whenever I want something delicious, I go and grab an oreo cookie donut. As long as it’s morning or night it is the best time to go since, you don’t have to wait in line that long. You can get a donut and drink within a minute, but the sandwich and beagle takes about two-three minutes. Tim Hortons has given you drinks, beagles, sandwiches, donuts, and muffins since, 1964. They value audio commercials and billboards to draw people to want something sweet or filling.

Who I identify as, the groups that I belong to, and the values I have will knowingly and unknowingly attach a level of privilege and power that can and will impact my professional identity and the work I do as a professional. The purpose of this paper is to examine how my identity could impact my work as a social worker, how my personal values conflict with my professional values, and to recall a time when I reduced the participation in oppression.

Nowadays, the number of coffee drinkers are increasing. As the demand for coffee grows, the number of coffee chains is also increasing. Of that, the representative coffee chains in North America are Starbucks and Tim Hortons. Starbucks has the highest brand awareness amongst the world coffee chains. It started in Seattle, the United State in 1971. Starbucks has a very unique and symbolic logo that people can easily remember it. It features a two-tailed mermaid with long hair. The background of the colour is deep green and the rest of it is white. Whereas, Tim Hortons was established by Canadian hockey player, Tim Horton and the first open was in Hamilton, Canada in 1964. It is now the most beloved and favorite coffee chains in

Yes, Stanley is a victim of discrimination on his job witch is a very hard barrier to break. Sad to say, but A lot of people often get discriminate on there job. Stanley treated difference basic on his age; staff had no right to jokes about his age. At some point in our life time you may or have experience discrimination. In this case discrimination can be examined from many different angles. With today 's generation in healthcare, you often experience the Millennials baby 's with lack of respect for Baby Boomers and Generation X. Mainly because people not rising kids with passion and love of others. I have spend many years working in healthcare, some of these younger folks get out of school thinking they know more than older people and textbooks.

Design a new application which will be beneficial for both Tim Hortons and students and it will create new jobs and it will be good for the company as it will give customer satisfaction. Or adapt the current app Timmy Me to hold the deliveries instead design a new application.

Tim Hortons has a lot of social initiatives that they run in society. Their social initiatives include, camps for children, recycling programs and sports programs. Social responsibility is defined as, “The obligation of an organization's management towards the welfare and interests of the society in which it operates.” (Social Responsibility, n.d.). This means that the organization intends to contribute to society, including the environment in a positive manner.

I have never seen how Americans treated colored people in person, but I knew there were rules that colored people had to follow. I was 17 years old and my parents decided that it was time for me to work, so that I could earn my own money. It was my first day at work, and I thought that everything was going to be fine, but I was wrong. It was at 11:15 am when everything went down south. Three colored people entered the diner, one male and two females. They sat in the incorrect area because only whites could sit there. Colored people were only allowed to sit in the back of the diner. I was their waitress, and I was a bit nervous; with it being my first day. I ignored them a few times, while thinking

A class divided was an entertaining video to watch. I enjoyed watching Mrs. Elliott implement her exercise regarding discrimination and racism. It was also interesting how Mrs. Elliott 's third graders responded to her when they were asked a question about black people. Then she began her exercise by stating, "That she was the teacher and since she has blue eyes then blue-eyed people should be on top." Then she stated,"Blue-eyed people are smarter than brown-eyed people. And one of her male students defended his father saying," His father was not that stupid." After his response Mrs. Elliott went on to say,"Blue-eyed people were better than brown-eyed people." What was a little uneasy for me was when the yardstick was misplaced one of the students

Despite being a teenager, Nuñez displayed a very high sense of maturity at work. She claimed that she enjoyed being employed at the fast food center, due to the fact that she was being exposed to new circumstances on a daily basis. The circumstances found within McDonald’s allowed for her to learn “how to be a responsible person”, for she was “meeting all kinds of people and learning a lot about them” (440). Although, she enjoyed working at McDonald’s due to these instances, there were some instances when Nuñez did not enjoy working at McDonald’s as much as she normally did. The main reason for this was due to the fact that she faced many problems with her customers while working her job. However, those are the situations in which McDonald’s taught Marissa Nuñez her biggest lesson; Nuñez realized that she needed to “have more patience than ever”, control her emotions, and “get along with all different kinds of people” (442). For example, one day a customer came into McDonald’s and began to mention derogatory terms, terms which were hinted towards Marissa Nuñez. Although, most teenagers of her age would have responded back to the comments either vocally or physically, Nuñez decided it would be best if she “walked away to get the manager” during that certain situation. By performing this action, Marissa Nuñez was able to

Peter Gibbons is what one would call a company drone. He worked as hard as he could for a company that he hated. Peter went to see a therapist, but the therapist suddenly dies after putting Peter under hypnosis. Peter leaves calm and relaxed along with the idea that he is not going to put any effort into his job. There are days he doesn’t show up and when he does show up he plays games all day. The hypnotherapy changes Peter’s personality and makes him very laid back and blunt. Two consultants come in to the office looking to dramatically downsize, but when they meet Peter they are very impressed with his honest opinions of the company. They offer to put him on the management fast track; Peter was all for this idea until he found out about

An aroma of Tim Hortons flew my way as I opened the cardboard box filled with delightful sweets. I gazed at a set of 12 Boston cream perfectly glazed donuts with rich creamy chocolate. All covered so evenly that it was astonishingly satisfying. Each donut was the same size, and was covered perfectly. Coated from every edge of the sweet ring-shaped fried cake. I picked up one of them to feel a warm but kind of rough, freshly baked decadent donut in my hands.

We have been getting a complaints from our employees in our bakery, Donald and Rebel. __Insert your answers/__. I have dealt with Rebel’s problems by talking to Donald on how Donald has often come in late and how this has affected other staff members.__insert your answers/__.
