Becoming a truck driver was the last thing I thought I would be doing. I was a child care provider and loved it. I never could see myself doing anything except caring for children and then this wonderful opportunity came along and changed everything. I realized things sometimes don’t go as planned especially in this changing economy, and that’s when the most adventurist, scariest and yet fulfilling career change I have ever made was staring me in the face. I have never been in a truck before so I had an array of emotions and thoughts when I went to school to start learning about this big truck that was both scary and exciting at the same time.

Chick-Fil-A Case Study Despite being a fast-food restaurant, Chick-Fil-A is widely known for its exceptional customer service. Part of the reason they have incredible customer service is because they have made it their mission to “get better before getting bigger.” Even though Chick-Fil-A has thousands of less stores than its competitors, it has made business all about the customer and it is paying off in large profits and continual growth.

Chick-fil-a was the only job I could find when the time came for me to work to fund the majority of my college expenses. I wasn’t exactly thrilled to be working at a fast food establishment but the positive and cheerful environment that was fostered there made it fun. The customers always welcomed it and reciprocated it with equal enthusiasm. I saw the positive results of a customer-centered business. This model could be applied in my future career in medicine to ensure that patients feel heard and appreciated while employees feel happy to go to work.

Acquiring a job, whether it be in a doctor’s office or a fast-food restaurant, can transform a person.

The article “Labouring the Walmart Way,” author Deenu Parmar talks about how Walmart is able to achieve selling goods at a lower price then any average superstore. The author goes on to explain that Walmart’s antiunion efforts, employee selection, low prices and high retention rate all contribute to their major success.

On Saturday my mother basically had to force me out of the house. I hated the pastel pink shirt and everything about this job; little did I know that this would quickly change.

I will give a little back story. I took over a store, at a new retailer, three weeks before Black Friday; the highest sales day of the year. I had no staff and the store did not have a store manager for almost six months. Over the next two weeks, my team and I worked diligently to get the store in order. I held interviews and hired over twenty associates for the season, my team and I completely revamped the stock room.

Who would check out the customers if it wasn’t for cashiers? The managers are like the leaders of a big army stretching over 100,000 square feet. One by one each and every associate means something to the company from the trash man to the

Time passes really fast and I have already worked as a part-time waiter in this Japanese restaurant for two and a half years. Today is my last day at work and I have a lot to share, not only the most memorable experience I had while working, but also what I have learnt since I chose this job. I remembered that why I chose Japanese restaurant is due to my curiosity on Japanese culture and cuisine. I remember that I was energetic and excited as I reckon that being surrounded by all sorts of Japanese food should be fun.

My job at the foodlion grocery store in Roebuck was an unenjoyable working experience to say the least. When I first began working at Foodlion the job was fun and I enjoyed it but as time went on it got worse and worse. As time went on the longer I worked there the more disrespectful my co-workers and supervisors got.

On my first day at the job I introduced myself to all the girls that I was working with during that shift. Every mid afternoon there was two girls at the register, one at the food station, and three girls on the drive thru. Although everyone has their own station the point of it is for the workers to work together. Thats how proper establishments work. The workers work together to satisfy the customer and get them out as quickly as possible but none of the drive thru girls would ever except my help.
