work experience

So for 10 weeks during TY i was doing my work experience in wallaby woods which is basically an activity center for kids. I was working in the coffee shop, and i was surprised to learn that i love making coffees!

                                                     

At the start i was really nervous and i didn't really what to do but as the weeks went on i started to enjoy it more. All the staff were lovely and i felt that i got on really well with everyone. The only downside was that when it was quiet it got boring because there wasn't really anything to do.

My favourite thing was making coffees! When i started i knew absoloutely nothing about coffee because i personally cant stand coffee. So i had to learn quickly and i now know how to make lattes, cappichinos, americanos, espressos and other fancy ones like flat whites. when i first learned i was  making coffees and teas for everyone.

One of the funny experiences i had was on my last day trying to get a frog out of the coffee shop. I never knew i was scared of frogs until i tried to pick it up. it felt disgusting and slimy and i felt bad cause i kept dropping it. one of the days i was also attacked by a spider and i thought i was going to die. I was just cleaning the tables and one landed on my leg and usually i would scream but since i was working with people around i kind of just did a dance around trying to get it off.

Overall i actually really enjoyed my work experience although there were times it got boring.
