Sarah Arlia

Hi , my name is Sarah Arlia . Im a 41 year old mom of a 15 year old boy and moved to the beautiful city of Lantana 3 years ago after relocated from treasure island fl where I spent almost 8 years at . I'm originally from Atlantic City Nj where I started working in the Restaurant Industry at age 17 ( if you don't count the three years prior that I helped out at my fathers/grandparents Restaurant. My very first own restaurant job was a server at a little restaurant in Ocean City called Kathleens . I learned very quickly that I loved talking to all the different people, serving and learning about food , And happiness it brings feeding people !! When I turned 18 the owner of that restaurant made me a server manager and I actually got to further my knowledge by making schedules for all the other servers, ordering supplies we used , doing daily and weekly reports , and hiring any needed help. I was always very mature for my age when I was younger so I'm guessing the owner caught onto that when he asked me to be in charge. From then on I've never wanted to leave the industry . I certainly haven't got tired of it and I actually really have a fun time doing it . Whether I'm serving or bartending I enjoy the interaction and the fast pace of it . In 2008 I met my children's father and we had our first child together a son in December 2009 . His career in Radio/Broadcasting/Comedy would take us to many different areas. I would always find a great restaurant job in every place we ended up . We spent five years in Cleveland Ohio where I would have my second child our daughter . We Then move to treasure island Florida in 2014 when my fiancés job would take us to an opportunity in Tampa Bay . We were so excited to come to Florida and out of the cold weather that we had always lived but unfortunately we experienced the worst tragedy imaginable when only a month after moving to Florida me and my children were hit by a speeding car while crossing the street. We lost my Sweet angel girl and I had a long road to recovery from my injuries as well. When I was well enough I got back to work and it really helped with my healing process and journey. I've just always been a people person and really enjoy them . In September of 2018 I had started having some issues from my previous injuries and I had to be admitted to the hospital to start dialysis for kidney failure. Since dialysis takes up a lot of time , I wasn't able to serve anymore and I started working for a Traveling comedy show , mostly from home ( except on some ) weekends ) Being the owners Assistant and doing the marketing came very easy to me from all the years of working in the restaurant industry. I actually had a lot of the same tasks ( without the food part ) . I've been doing this since 2018 but the goal was always to get a kidney transplant and go back to life I knew and loved so much! In June of 2021 , I was gifted that transplant and it immediately gave me , not only another chance at life , but it gave me My life back!!!!! It's been almost 4 years now and I've never felt better!!! I feel like a walking miracle and I'm full of gratitude, happiness, and new respect of life . I recently just left a restaurant job that I absolutely loved and gotten very close to my co workers and customers but sadly after 3 years I felt like it was time to find something different, for personal reasons. I'm very ambitious and hard-working and have no limitations . I'm very confident that I'd make any management proud in chosen me to join their team !! I have open availablity and reliable transportation. I promise to give all your customers wonderful experiences there and finish all my tasks. I promise you won't regret hiring me ! Thank you for your time!
