The road to success and the road to failure are almost exactly the same.
Colin R. Davis

Summary

I know this is a bit unorthodox, but I need to represent myself with more than just empty words on a resume. I haven’t listed all my previous work experiences here because they don’t directly relate to serving. What I lack in years, I make up for with sheer determination and an unwavering commitment to excellence. I’ve always believed that hard work beats experience when experience doesn’t work hard, and I stand by that. My brief stint away from the working world was due to an incredible four-month journey in China, where I broadened my horizons and deepened my appreciation for its diverse cultures and cuisines. I pride myself on being more than just a server. I’m dedicated to providing an exceptional dining experience, treating every customer as if they’re the most important person in the room. I have a strong work ethic and a knack for making people feel at ease. I’m a quick learner and I adapt easily to new environments. Working with me means more than just having another pair of hands; it means having someone who genuinely cares about the quality of their work and the satisfaction of every guest. I may not have the longest resume, but it will be difficult to find someone more dedicated or passionate about this job. Thank you for your consideration.
