Summary

New experience - learned how to carry multiple dishes and glasses at a time in order to serve customers efficiently.

Co-Workers helped me settle in at first before I started getting familiar with how to take orders, following up on them and delivering them to customers.

Very fast paced environment. - Always busy with customer service, cleaning tables or setting them up

Learnt proper table etiquette. - How to arrange different forks, knives spoons, plates and glasses.

Helped arrange tables for reservations. e.g - Big family reservations of approximately 16 people.
