Accomplishments
- I am regularly told out of all our Expo staff I am the favorite of the servers and bartenders (even many of the line cooks) thanks to my positive attitude, attentiveness and efficient work ethic. As well not cracking under pressure and keeping things moving. I bring a positive atmosphere into an otherwise chaotic kitchen environment.
- There's no official employee of the month awards at the location, but I've been unofficially received such award.
- I am the most experienced and skilled cook in the store.
- I'm capable of managing multiple stations when things get busy, jumping between them and helping out the person responsible.
- I was a friendly and overall helpful team member. The servers I worked with much preferred my work compared to the other dishwasher we had. They were thankful to how helpful I was by keeping their stations well stocked and silverware neatly organized. Other employees often told me I was the best they had and did the job of four others easily. I regularly cleaned up after hundreds of guests at a time with speed and efficiency. The owner of the company gave me a bonus for exceptional work on an overly busy day.
