Summary
I've picked up a lot from being a bartender in communication mostly and having to be dependable. I was one of the managers in the restaurant at the complex before I transferred to being the bartender. My shifts are Saturday and Sunday in an outside bar for roughly 12 hours both days. That helped me become patient and understanding of the customer to help build relationships.
To seek and maintain full-time position that offers professional challenges utilizing interpersonal skills, excellent time management and problem-solving skills.
Im also very good at multi tasking and have a very good memory in a short manor and in a long time line.
