I have just got a job as a waitress in a cafe but i’ve never done it before?
I didnt know what the job was for so I went to the interview anyway and she gave me the job.
Im going to be working in the cafe part of a really busy supermarket. Ill have to cook the food, work the till, clear the table, wash up and other things.
I have no experience at all, I can’t even cook my own food lol. Do you think I’ll be ok?
I have 6 years experience of customer service but never worked with food before.
The first week will be a blur. You will have to learn 100 things and no human being can do that. So you will make mistakes. Carry a notepad at all times. When someone points out the 12 buttons on the coffee machine, you write them down. If you don’t you will just stare at the buttons the next time you make coffee.
You will learn about cooking. Get a copy of The Joy Of Cooking and try some recipes. The customers will be thrilled when you talk about what you learned. They are not expert cooks, either.
Show up on-time and work hard. Time will fly by..
