I started working when I was in high school as a babysitter. I would watch my neighbors’ children or family friends’ children. I learned that taking care of a child is more work than I anticipated. I enjoy being creative, so usually we would do some type of arts and crafts. We would color or make a dream catcher or build a house out of popsicle sticks. I have also worked at retail stores. I learned how to use the cash register, take inventory, and be a good seller. I became comfortable going up to customers and helping them figure out what they should get. I also waitressed for a bit. I was expected to help put away the clean dishes, make any drinks the customers wanted, and take the customers order. I had to learn to use the coffee and expresso machine as well as the machine used to place orders.
