      Barista

      I was tasked with juggling different tasks at the same time. Multitasking responsibilities such as taking people's orders while also putting pastries in the oven could be difficult, but I always did it with a genuine smile and aimed to give our customers the best experience possible. I wouldn't mind going out of my way to help a customer bring things to their car, or helping them find out what nearest store carried a product that we were out of because the goal was always to make them as happy as possible. That was something that I loved doing. Show less
