Summary

I am a motivated waitress with an engaging personality and flexible approach. I'm upbeat, friendly and try my hardest to anticipate customer needs to facilitate an enjoyable dining experience for them. I am currently searching for a full-time position preferably in a customer service position, as that is where I shine my brightest. With 2 years of waitressing experience, I bring a lot to the table for any future job. A bright smile, good work ethic, and ability to work in a fast-paced environment. I pick up instructions quickly and am able to work not only in a team, but also as an individual.

Dish washing was my first ever job, and through it I learnt the importance of true hard work. It has given me an amazing work ethic and I truly respect all positions in any job, no matter how dirty they are. I was the only dish washer for an Indian restaurant, and hand washed all the dishes. Through this job I learnt to work my hardest, and have carried this work ethic through all the years.
