Summary
In about 4-5 years of work experience, I have had a lot of practice in food service and all the different challenges and applications that come with it. I feel that these skills could be applied to many places in the industry. From these previous jobs I have learned how to take inventory, organize the different products in the right places, and have had plenty of experience working with a team.
