Do you enjoy the work that you have done so far? Why or why not?
I do because although dishwashing sounds like a boring job, it's nice and I’ve met new people
and have the opportunity of working with so many different people in different departments.

your work?
Soft skills: Responsibility, ability to work independently, ability to follow directions,
communication, and being engaged

That I can easily get along well with others and if not I can still work well with them.
Communication isn’t a difficult task for me because I’ve always been a shy person who didn’t
self-advocate as much as I do now.
