Duties include helping her get ready for school and ensuring the experience is calm as she has a fixed makeup and hair routine which can become problematic and cause a distressing episode if something does not go to plan or if she feels pressured as she is often late and wont conform to a time limit. The role also involves assisting her when going out for the day eg. going shopping or for a meal, as she does not have good etiquette or manners (can often make inappropriate comments to others e.g. on appearance or racism) and is badly behaved and can often have unpleasant encounters with other members of the public which can cause her distress and inappropriate outbursts in public therefore I am required to try and calm the situation and ensure the experience is pleasant for her or avoiding altercations with members of the public. My role also involves spending time with her at home and trying to have normal conversations with her as she does not have many friends, does not have a sense of reality, is naturally confrontational and argumentative therefore requiring me to be very patient, understanding and careful with how I converse with her) Show less

I have worked events such as birthdays, christenings and band concerts.I work at the Band Club between semesters and occasional weekends when there are large functions and more staff are needed. I provide good customer service and build rapport with the customers. There are often times where there is a lot of pressure as the club hosts wedding parties, birthdays etc. where there are up to 100 or more people therefore the bar gets very busy and customers can be impatient and rude due to the intoxication, however I remain calm and provide good customers service by staying polite and uplifting when they seem unhappy.
