Shift Team Lead
Riverton, Utah, United States
At the young age of 14 years old I had the opportunity to work in a fast-paced, stressful, and customer service-based job which taught me many skills. After one year of working, I was given the job/role of a "Team Lead". In the peak hours of summer, our business could have as many as 100 people come through in 45 minutes. This is a large number of shave ice that needs to be put out and customers to serve. As the Team Lead, I would have to help support my co-workers and push through the major rush while learning customer service skills. There were many customers who were not patient and learning how to deal with them was a good skill along with leading other workers. This was a great entry job for the age of 14-16 and I am grateful I was able to work this young.
