Food & Beverage Office Clerk

July - September 2018 • Laie, HI

What I liked

As an office clerk, I had a lot of responsibilities to fulfill. I am always busy by the time I started working until I finished. Working in the office was fun and it kept me active all time.

What I wish was different

I was not thinking of anything because I enjoyed my job.

Advice

I never tell myself that I could not do my work. I always tell myself that I CAN DO IT. Ask questions to your superiors if you don't understand something. It is not hurt to ask but it hurts if we just blindly do the work and at the end of the day we did it wrong. Sometimes I feel that my managers gave me a lot of reports to complete at certain time but it actually helps me to think and act fast. Work Smart and Tell Yourself That You Can Do It.
