Little Ceasers was one of the three jobs I’ve worked in that required some physical toughness, in order to complete what needed to be done. I received the job from an acquaintance who ended up quitting once I began. I would arrive to work by driving in my own vehicle, and most times, I wouldn’t depart until two hours after my shift ended. Various people who never work there would think it’s a simple job and you should be an expert at it by day one. In reality, it takes some time to master the positions, and since everything is supposed to be fast, you needed to be quick with your hands: quick with solutions to unexpected problems. To begin with, countless Little Ceasars customers are impatient when it comes to Pizza, and if the pizza isn’t out yet, they start to become rude and dehumanize the workers. I would earn $8.25 hourly, but my body would demand for it to be more. Working there would require for you to be tolerant to standing up for hours and …show more content…
restricted from sitting down at all. Unless you’ve actually worked in a job that restricted you from sitting, you would think it’s something you could handle easily, but it gets tiring. As a result, it leads you to performing your tasks at a slower pace. Then it upsets your manager, due to he/she not accomplishing what needs to be done efficiently, which leads them to howl at you. In my experience, I would go to work after eight hours of school added with two hours of gymnastics practice, which by that time I was tired. My energy at work was already low, and I was ideally slow. My manager didn’t accept that as an excuse, they just wanted to confirm that the demanding customers were pleased by not waiting. For this reason, I “have come to understand how much my kind of work demands of both body and brain” (Rose 274). There wasn’t any time for anything to be perfected, for the sake of customers walking in one after another. Therefore, I began to develop ways on how to complete my tasks time efficiently. While making the dough, I would frame it into a round shape by doing four at a time rather than one. It wasn’t perfect, but it was acceptable enough to satisfy the manager, and customers didn’t complain. While washing dishes, instead of one at a time, I would grab a couple of them at a time and wash them together in a way that it was approved by Little Ceasars standards. While being on the assembly line, taking a glance on what needed to be made and making progressive moves while different pizzas on the screen. At first, you weren’t too perfect at it, but eventually you adapt to it, and you think of other ways to accomplish tasks in a time fashionably manner. Equally important, communication was another factor that played a role.
You would need to have excellent communication skills in order to please the managers but also the customers that fundamentally funds the whole business. By doing so, when a customer walked in, perhaps a greeting or introducing was acceptable, like a “hey, how you doin’?” or “Adan here, what can I get you”. While receiving an order on the phone, you needed some form of concentration to focus on what is being said on the phone in an environment that is loud. Even though some customers aren’t nice and think it’s appropriate to take their anger out on a fast food worker, you are to be the bigger person and tolerate their behavior. That being said, your nice behavior could change their mood, and have them satisfied to come again. Another skill that would tie in with communications is if you know multiple languages, for the reason that you wouldn’t have a problem with customers behind them waiting in line. You could attend them in an efficient
manner. In conclusion, innumerable people devalue the work behind fast food workers and demand it to always be perfect. It is often taken for granted on how we have people willing to work minimum wage and come in and out exhausted, while forgetting that they also have a life and are not robots. No job is easy and mistakes happen everyday, and no one is perfect.
People are consumed with their own reality that they didn’t even acknowledge me sitting at a table watching them. Each person seemed to have their own stories different from everyone else’s.

I work at a restaurant that has twenty-four tables that are seated during each shift. The other waitresses and I each have a section of tables each shift and we refer to different tables to address which people have food. We have had to memorize the menus and learn a simple way to take peoples order in a way that suits our memory. Some waitresses can abbreviate words and have memorized each abbreviation like a code. I have very small handwriting and can generally write fast so that I can understand the orders I took as I record them into the touch-screen computer to send into the kitchen. From there the line-workers decipher when which orders can be cooked and the ingredients that go into each dish. Waitressing has also allowed me to read patrons facial expressions and mannerisms to tell whether they might be looking for something or how they feel about the food and service. This job has especially helped me learn how to utilize my time appropriately and
Before I stepped in to the supermarket my main objective was how customer interact with each other and how they

The Book of Job is one of the writings in the Hebrew Bible Old Testament. According to many scholars, it dates back to between the 7th and 4th centuries BCE; however, the author remains unknown (Walker). Throughout the scriptures, it mentions Job and his friends, but Job is not the author. Many theories have been about that say the author must be of Israelite descendants and somehow came upon a story of a righteous man who was tested by God and suffered but still remained loyal to Him (Job 5:11). The Book of Job is often considered difficult to comprehend but within its text lies a meaningful message that many people often look over and lose sight of.

By making sure that an employee’s basic needs are met you are setting them up to succeed. Additionally by using reinforcement theory, specifically positively reinforcing good behaviors and punishing bad behaviors it is easy to change the workers behavior to align to the new job. In redesigning a barista, we plan to add skill variety and task identity by ensuring that partners are trained in the entire process of the Starbucks customer experience from greeting customers, to drink preparation, to accepting payments. We also strive to have work units formed in which a team of people form an assembly line to help customers from the moment they walk into the door to the time they leave. Establishing customer relationships is a vital part of Starbucks overall brand. Starbucks mission statement is “to inspire and nurture the human spirit - one person, one cup, and one neighborhood at a time.” This is done through customer relationships and the baristas are the ones who nurture these relationships. By establishing relationships with the customers, partners increase their skill variety, autonomy, and feedback job dimensions through this direct contact with customers. In order to promote this we want to ensure that every customer is greeted when they walk in, are communicated with through their entire order process, and acknowledged again before they leave. Managers

Part I Job Analysis defined: Identifying lists of activities or tasks associated with the job. Determining the skills needed to perform the job successfully. A well-designed job analysis can help to create a work environment where expectations are clear and future problems can be alleviated through communication. Some detailed benefits of job analysis include: 1. It provides uniform guidelines for dealing with employment selection, compensation, performance standards, and the skills needed for any given position. 2. It lays a foundation for gaining a competitive advantage by identifying training needs for the incumbent employee or an employee entering into the organization. 3. A successful job analysis draws clear boundaries between the employer and employee regarding qualifications, job responsibilities, lines of authority, and ways of preventing or dealing with grievances. 4. It allows employers to hire qualified candidates by linking applicants' skills to the job analysis. Employers can also prove that their requirements for selection are related to the job. The ADA defines a qualified applicant as "one who can perform the essential functions of the job." A job analysis provides the employer with justification of why they chose a particular applicant. Other areas to note: 1. The most common reason for a job analysis is to gather information for job descriptions. The job description should focus on results and outcomes instead of how to accomplish the job, because each person attains results in a different fashion. 2. Preparation for the future is key to dealing with a changing workplace. The job analysis should integrate issues the organization may confront in the future, such as turnover and technology advances that could change its structure. 3. Forecasting HR needs is critical to the success of the organization. These should be assessed with past trends, evaluating the skills of incumbent positions, and being aware of changing skills and requirements. Some questions/activities regarding job analysis: A class activity would be a case study that involves a new person hired into an organization where a job analysis is not utilized. The following questions serve as a guideline for the types of issues that could arise without a clear job analysis.

When entering a restaurant, I usually expect to leave full, satisfied, and wanting to come back again. I believe that many people expect the same thing. The way people react to service can be very different from person to person. Depending on the way the customers are feeling, or the way that the server is feeling can be a big factor for the way service comes across. Service is an important part of everyone’s lives because majority of the jobs that people preform are service related. Poor service is an unfortunate part of life that everyone comes across. The way that I react to the poor service I receive is important and can change in the blink of an eye. Whether I react in an outspoken way, by getting loud and voicing my opinion. Or if I react in a quiet or apologetic way, it can affect my server, and the people around me, and myself.
As a waitress, I worked there part-time. My basic salary was $10 a day plus tips. Tips were paid daily and basic salary was paid every half a month. I get about $40 for tips everyday for 12 hours working from 1:00pm to 1:00am and I have to stand all day except 15 minutes’ sitting down for dinner. I got less tips than others because I’m new here. Still, that’s not a satisfying salary.
