Hello, Professor in class.
- 00:02 - 00:03
My name is Elena Vargas.
- 00:03 - 00:06
I am currently majoring in business management.
- 00:07 - 00:09
And in order to support myself through college and to
- 00:09 - 00:11
live in this house that I call home, I work
- 00:11 - 00:12
as a server.
- 00:13 - 00:15
I work in downtown Sacramento here at a local breakfast
- 00:16 - 00:18
spot. Many of you probably eating there or know about
- 00:18 - 00:20
it. It is the most house.
- 00:22 - 00:24
My job as a server is to make sure my
- 00:24 - 00:27
customers have a great time and that they leave wanting
- 00:27 - 00:28
to come back.
- 00:28 - 00:30
Of course, I take your food and drink, order and
- 00:30 - 00:33
whatnot, but I provide a dining experience.
- 00:34 - 00:35
My job is to make sure you have a good
- 00:35 - 00:38
time. I also take care of the restaurant.
- 00:39 - 00:42
We open and close the entire restaurant with my restaurant
- 00:42 - 00:42
lives at three.
- 00:43 - 00:46
So all the servers at my place open and close
- 00:46 - 00:49
it. I'm responsible for handling my own money.
- 00:49 - 00:50
There is no register there.
- 00:50 - 00:52
I am the register for my table.
- 00:52 - 00:53
I bring my own money.
- 00:54 - 00:54
I am.
- 00:54 - 00:55
I bring my own bank.
- 00:56 - 00:59
So what that means is I just bring $100 every
- 00:59 - 01:02
day and I cash you out with my own money.
- 01:03 - 01:04
And then I give the restaurant what I owe them,
- 01:05 - 01:06
and they give me what they owe me.
- 01:07 - 01:10
I'm responsible for a lot of things and because of
- 01:10 - 01:14
co vid not only in my year server, but I'm
- 01:14 - 01:14
also your bartender now.
- 01:15 - 01:18
So Monday through Friday, I bartender as well I'll take
- 01:19 - 01:19
the drink orders.
- 01:20 - 01:21
I'll go make them amongst those that people have a
- 01:21 - 01:22
cocktail and make those as well.
- 01:23 - 01:24
Those are a lot funner to make.
- 01:25 - 01:28
I'm learning those, though I'm not the best at it,
- 01:28 - 01:29
but I'm learning.
- 01:30 - 01:30
It's a bit.
- 01:30 - 01:31
It's a learning experience.
- 01:32 - 01:32
It's really fun.
- 01:33 - 01:36
And then we do have to wear a mask all
- 01:36 - 01:39
day. Our entire ship, unless we're on our break something
- 01:39 - 01:40
down at our table eating.
- 01:40 - 01:42
We have to wear a mask the entire time.
- 01:43 - 01:44
Um, there is now only outdoor seating.
- 01:45 - 01:50
They recently have closed indoor seating, so it's gonna be
- 01:50 - 01:50
a cold winter.
- 01:51 - 01:53
I recommend bringing a jacket when you go out.
- 01:54 - 01:58
We just got heaters, so it's not that bad, but
- 01:58 - 01:59
it is gonna be cold still.
- 02:00 - 02:02
And you know, I like being a server.
- 02:02 - 02:03
It's fun.
- 02:03 - 02:04
I don't work that many hours.
- 02:05 - 02:06
I make great money though.
- 02:06 - 02:09
So out of all the minimum wage Tom's I've had,
- 02:10 - 02:10
this has been the best.
- 02:11 - 02:12
I do recommend it to anybody.
- 02:13 - 02:15
Um, that is looking for a new job.
- 02:16 - 02:17
It's it's really fun.
- 02:17 - 02:19
I honestly love the shop the most out of every
- 02:19 - 02:22
job I've ever had, and that's pretty much it.
- 02:22 - 02:23
I hope you like my video.
