The world of work

This week my daughter will do five days work experience arranged for year 10 students through the school. She is going to work in quite a big hotel within walking distance of our home. Her programme is designed to give her a taste of every aspect of hotel work (new managers do exactly the same) and is as follows:

Mon: General duties in kitchen
Tues: Housekeeping (servicing rooms, etc)
Weds: Working on reception and dealing with guests' enquiries
Thurs: Serving in the restaurant
Fri: Working with a chef in the kitchen

Her uniform is ironed, her hair is washed. She has been unusually quiet today, but a determined glint in her eye suggests to me that she will be putting in 110% effort over the next five days 😊

That's great for experience, I was at a kids nursery over a couple days a few months ago and enjoyed it.

@Cinderellagirl Do you think you would like to work with children in future?

How are the exams going?
@SunshineGirl Maybe but I'm waiting on results now. Yes going well but lots of free periods now so helping out a bit and a little bit of studying too.

@Cinderellagirl Helping out with PE lessons?
@SunshineGirl Once a week I joined to help the young ones with a few others as teachers were doing exams.
I applied to college also so need to wait.
