Job as a cashier / cashier assistant is to execute excellent customer service skills while maintaining a lively and positive attitude through a shift. Ensuring communication between coworkers and customers are formal, concise, and abundant as communication is key to developing deeper connections between customers and coworkers. Ensuring stations are kept clean, any complaints from customers regarding sanitization are kept little to none. If a customer is dissatisfied with their experience, learning from what went wrong is critical and exploring ways to ensure it never happens again is also performed.

Ever since I was little, I have always possessed an enjoyment for learning different languages and cultures. The first language to captivate my interest was none other than Japanese. I found the way the language sounded satisfying. To me, it sounded sophisticated, addicting, and even a bit cute. Not to mention, I had developed a strange enjoyment to listening to disney songs in different languages. This would only expand my soon to be infatuation with languages as I dove deeper into the countries that surrounded Japan. I would proceed to deep my feet into languages such as: Mandarin, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, Tagalog, and Ilokano. I even branched off from Asia into continents such as Europe and the sub region of the Middle East; partaking an interest into learning Spanish, French, Arabic, and just a tad bit of Russian. Though, living in Hawai'i, of course I picked up on a few words in Hawaiian and a bit of Samoan. Although I am not fluent in any of these languages, my love and true happiness for these languages are very much real. I hope to one day finally become fluent in a different language and to one day teach my future descendents the same languages as well. 

Other hobbies or interests of mine include:

> Geography

If you'd like to test me on this, by all means, go ahead! I'm confident enough to say that I've mastered almost 90-95% of all countries and maybe 80% of their capitals! I can't for match countries to their flags well, but I know a good amount.

> Natural Disasters

Natural disasters was also an infatuation of mine when I was little. Although I grew out of this phase, I still have a great understanding of how most natural disasters are formed and what to do in such situations!

> Listening to music

> Meeting new people

I may be a bit shy and quiet at first, but that does not mean I do not meeting new people! I enjoying making new friends and connecting with strangers! To be entirely honest, I sometimes prefer to keep to myself out of fear that I would be shunned or humiliated for my identity. Despite this, I see attempting to make new friends better than not trying at all.

> Driving around / Doing late night drives

> Playing games

Although my legal name is Joseph, that name has come to harm me emotionally. I am a transgender male-to-female individual. My preferred name is Cataleya (or Leya) and I wish to legally have my name changed in the future. I hope to work in environments where I feel it is safe for me to openly express myself in a professional manner, such as not being discriminated against and keeping any offensive jokes to little or none. I don't mean to make anyone uncomfortable, I simply wish to express myself in a manner that makes me comfortable.
