Happy to work

By Jonathan Sanders

On May 25, 2014 I got hired by the Silver Diner in

Waldorf. It was my greatest accomplishment of my young life,

next to me graduating and getting my driver’s license

but I will explain another time. Throughout my high junior and

senior year I was look for a job. Finally at the end of my

senior year near graduation, the Silver Diner called me be

back to schedule an interview. So I knew I had to dress up for

success. Then after 3 interviews Mr. Freddy, the general

manager, offers me the soda position (includes making

milkshakes)but originally I applied for host but I said

I’ill take it.

Two weeks after I got hired my training starts. This day

also happened to be the day of graduation, and my

mother’s birthday. After a few weeks of training, I took

a test to become certified to make milkshakes, and passed it

with flying colors. Mr. Freddy announced my accomplishment the

whole diner that I the first person to be certified at my

location to make milkshakes. Two days after I became

certified, The Silver Diner opened up for the first time in

Waldorf and I was so excited and filled with joy.

Three months after we opened I’m still excited and

I’m also training for a new position called expo. Expo

is a person who is in charge of organizing the food from the

kitchen and sending it to the guest. Which I believe is one of

the most important positions that we have at the Sliver Diner.

I am also trying to learn every position that is offered at my

job except for the kitchen positions. They depend on my skills

of knowing my job and being efficient at work. I am like,

“The Lebron James of the Silver Diner.” Just

knowing that a lot of people depend on me at work gives me

happiness and strength I need to go throughout my day. Knowing

that I a have a job, I am more independent, and I am being a

responsible adult makes me happy.

I can since your pride and excitement in the way you write. On line 9 it was confusing because you put "high" before junior and senior. Maybe you can can change it so that it reads "junior and senior years of high school."
