Summary
Honestly, having these two jobs has shown me quite a bit, from having to make sure something is prepared correctly, to maintaining patience with others. While taking care of the elderly, you learn to be patient because everyone is different, whether they are slow due to an injury or aggressive because their day isn't going well, and the chef job showed me that everything needs to be done right to avoid any problems, be it someone getting sick or injured. At the end, the most important thing I learned is to be patient and do everything correctly.
