Where I Work

Its only been three weeks since I started working at The Roof.  

I. Am. Loving. It!

I am constantly amazed at how well Temple Square Hospitality Corp takes care of their employees.  Each night, the head chef cooks a meal for the staff.  It is always delicious.  They provide us with free downtown parking.  The employees are all so very nice.  I love talking with people when they come to dine (something about learning about other people makes me really happy).  And the best perk... never working on Sundays!  

Well about 2 weeks ago, after I'd been working for a week at The Roof, the manager of H.R. called me up and asked if I would also like to serve at The Garden Restaurant.  They ended up being short staffed and would do well to train an additional server.  And since I have significant restaurant background, they thought of me.  Ya know, I may not have had much variety of employment throughout high school and during my time in Provo, but one thing I did right is work in the restaurant industry for a lengthy time.  Somehow there always seems to be a job available and my experience (and maturity, so they say...aka age, haha) is also a plus.

I just finished my training at The Garden yesterday and will be working most Friday nights.  I am hosting a few nights a week at The Roof and working their reservation desk on Thursdays.  And hopefully I will be trained soon as an assistant server at The Roof so I can pick up shifts as needed.  These are all blessings for me.  School is expensive and I still have bills to pay.  I am so very grateful to have these jobs and the great opportunity that comes with it.

Plus, the view from my work is pretty darn awesome!

I guess if one has to work on Christmas Eve, there isn't a better place to be then looking at His temple.
