Camp of the Woods, Kitchen Staff, Speculator New York
Kitchen Staff Member, I worked 50 hours a week doing food prep, set up and tear down, opening/ and closing the kitchen. I learned a lot about keeping things cleaned and organized, and the basics of food service and food regulations. I also learned about teamwork and working with people that I didn’t get along with. Overall, however, it was a really good learning experience. It was to be apart of a staff at a well known Christian Summer Camp, and I learned how to be independent and adapt to a difficult situation working long hours and being eight hours away from home.

Jammin’ Java, Eastern University Student Café
The Jammin’ Java is Eastern University’s student café. It’s a laid back atmosphere but it can also get extremely busy between classes. However, it’s a really nice atmosphere to just hang out with friends. Eastern hosted it’s coffee houses here so it also has that musical/ artistic element to it as well. I learned the basics of how to make coffee, register, and my people skills also developed a lot by dealing with so many different kinds of students, faculty and visitors. I really enjoyed the atmosphere and this was my first real coffee job do I learned a lot.

Starbucks, Camp Hill Store :
Starbucks is one of my more recent jobs as I worked at the Camp Hill. I learned a lot more about coffee, but it was more stressful working here because the Camp Hill Starbucks is the busiest store in the district. I didn’t enjoy my experience as much at Starbucks because it is a lot more fast paced and there is more focus about the system about how things are done. I did not get as much time making drinks but I still learned a lot about how to deal with a lot of things at once under time pressure and adapting to difficult situations.
