My Name is Candice and I'll Be Serving You Today

I've had a lot of jobs over the past 7 years. I've been a teacher's assistant, office assistant, server, day program coordinator, daycare worker, clothes folder, nanny, and the list goes on and on.

(Just for clarification, I don't rotate jobs a lot. Most of the time I have had 2 or 3 jobs at a time.)

If you ask me what my favorite job I've ever had was, I will tell you it was the very first job I ever had, a host and server at Golden Corral. I worked there for two years and only quit because my parents made me, (I was slacking in school because I was working too much.) I LOVE working in the restaurant industry. I love the atmosphere, the people, I just love everything about it!

When I got home from my cruise last June I found out I was once again jobless, (I was nannying for a wonderful family who ended up having a family member move in with them so they no longer needed me,) I decided to start looking for jobs at restaurants. Some may say that's taking a step back compared to past jobs I've had, but I really do just love working in restaurants. 

I got hired at Sizzler as a host. I wanted to be a server, but there were no openings at the time. That's ok though, a host will work for now. I got to know the menu, I learned the layout of the restaurant, and I got to know the staff. 

Shortly after getting hired at Sizzler, I found a full time job as an office assistant. It paid well enough that I didn't need to work at Sizzler anymore, but I was not going to quit this job, I enjoyed it just too much!

After six months of working for Sizzler, they offered me a server position. I'm currently in training to become a server and I can't wait! I really do love it, I don't work there because I have to, it's my choice, it's what I love.

So next time you're going to a movie at the District, stop in for some food first and I'll serve you!
