My first day at work
My first day of work went pretty well. I only made a couple of mistakes on the register, but the customers were understanding, since I was still being trained. Paul (the owners' son) was nice, and really patient. I'm starting to get the hang of things already though, so I'm not too worried. I did better than I expected. For most of the day I worked at the register, then re-stocked the drink cooler, did dishes, and swept the floor. Aside from cleaning, the main part of the job is mostly just repetition (which buttons to push in which order), being nice to customers, and remembering prices. All-in-all, I like it so far.
The only negative is, it's been so slow there lately that my boss doesn't need me to work very many hours, so I still don't have a set schedule. However, they do still need my help, so I'm pretty much just waiting for her to tell me when to come in. I'd like a schedule, and ideally I'd like to be working 12-15 hours a week, because I could really use the money, and that would also give me plenty of time to do what ever else with the rest of my week. But I'll have to wait and see what happens.
