Work History

I worked on customer service, and I also did chef work. When I was doing customer servicing work, I answered phone calls, managed Uber deliveries, managed Door Dash deliveries, managed normal deliveries and organized where the food was going. I also managed where the workers stationed most nights I worked. I resolved customer problems and provided solutions. I managed most of the part time workers besides the chefs who were full time. I also trained new workers when I saw them and gave them the idea of the high standard we have to up hold.

  • Monitored phone calls to provide feedback and coaching.
