I have been volunteering at Benardos for four months now. During my time there I have had experience of till work, dealing with cash flow and returns. I have also delt with customers inquires and comments (positive and negative!).
During quieter periods in the shop i would sort out the stock on the shop floor, by decoding and making sure its tidy and organised for customers. This has also given me the experience of working within a team in a work place.
I have spent the last couple of years doing painting for an elderly neighbour and her family around the village. I have had to develop my organisational skills through booking in the time to do the work and sorting out equipment. Painting doesn’t always go to plan, so i have also learned to accept problems and come up with solutions.
