What I liked
I liked getting more experience talking with and helping a variety of different types of people, and while I don’t plan to sell pool chemicals for my entire life, it certainly was good to be able to experience how to teach others about a subject. Sometimes I had to find more simple ways of explaining the chemistry to older people that may not have had a lot of knowledge about how basic chemistry works, for example. I also had to learn how to generally hold or strike up conversations even if I didn’t know the person well enough to improve my friendliness at work, as well as to make sure that people were getting the help they need because they don’t always like to ask first when they need help.
