Summary
Working as a Paraprofessional at Southlawn Elementary School, I was able to learn the importance of being a reliable and honest individual as well as working together with other Paras to benefit our children in their learning experience.
As a Quality Control Inspector, at National Beef, there was a lot of duties that needed my attention, everything had to be done the right way in order to protect people from contamination within the product. I learned to be strict and not to let anyone in my work area do the opposite because it’s our responsibility to keep people safe.
Something Sweet, was a restaurant and Ice cream place. Cooking equipment had to be clean and sanitized. Food needed the right temperature in order to maintain costumers safe. It was a lot of responsibility, also a joy to be able to work with other people without issues.
