Summary

Between growing up on a farm and having many hobbies I find it easy to make good use of my time and work hard at stuff for hours on end, I pride myself in my efficiency and work ethic, and I always try to make my work noticeable. I've heard it from many people in my work environments that I am one of the best workers they've ever worked with, I always feel like I could be doing better, but I have heard it enough times to believe there is some credence to their claims.

This is a lot of prewritten stuff that this site is giving me, It will be long and tedious to read this if I just keep clicking these buttons. I've done everything imaginable as a line cook, except for opening, and most of the Manager things like scheduling and ordering.

Dish Machine Operator

McMenamins Olympic Club
07.2021 - 05.2022
  • Cleared, washed and stacked all plates, dining utensils, and trays quickly and without breaking.
  • Worked with chemicals such as detergent, rinse agents, and sanitizers to protect customer health.
  • Scraped, washed and efficiently restacked dishware, utensils, and glassware to keep kitchen ready for customer demands.
  • Kept work area clean, dry, and free of debris to prevent incidents and accidents.
  • Efficiently loaded and unloaded dishwashers, cleaning by hand large pots or hotel pans.
  • Inspected dishwashing equipment and reported issues to supervisor.
  • Completed extra cleaning work on garbage cans, racks, dry storage areas, and other fixtures to keep kitchen spotless.
  • Kept dishes, utensils and glassware clean and rotated following safety standards set by restaurant.

Same with current job I could just keep adding things, I was the most efficient and quick dishwasher anybody has ever seen at my work. The head chef personally asked me to come work the line instead and the dishpit fell to ruin once I left so I frequently had to go back and help the Dishwashers in between cooking.

Interests

I love music and art, I'm a huge music nerd and will talk about it all day if you let me

I can play just about any instrument you hand me and will doodle on anything you allow me to, almost every one of my current coworkers has taken home a little piece of paper with one of my works on it

I often think about writing a book but simply don't have the time for that so short stories is as far as I go
