cell phone etiquette
Yes, my supervisor gives very good instructions she also doesn't play when it comes to the cell phone usage. She also gives the instructions very clearly.
workplace safety
Some hazardous equipment that i work with is the coffee machine and the coffee equipment.
what i have learned about the profession is to stay away from hot areas and be careful when make hot coffee. I really don't work with anybody at my placement, but what I've have learned about the person at my placement is that i should worry about myself and do and continue doing my job. The positive experience i have had was that some of the customers was very respectful, and some negative experience i have had was that some of the customers was very disrespectful. What I look forward to in a couple of weeks is that I will better myself in being a good salesperson and help myself do good at my actual job by respecting and being polite to customers even when they are rude.

attitudes
I think and I feel that I have a positive attitude. Working at Jittery Joes for my service learning is an good experience for me because I'm working with a cash register and I'm serving customers. I work at subway and I serve customers and have to work with a cash register. So while I'm at work I have to keep an positive attitude reguardless because without a positive I won't do good job at my real job. Having an bad attitude at work will not help me get anywhere in a career. When I go to work to do a job and I have nasty look on my face then that will say I don't need to be at work if all I'm going to do is be nasty and rude to customers. So if when i go to work i shouldn't let whats outside of my job get the best of me when i'm at work because i can end up getting fired. So when I'm working I will always have the best attitude and I'm going to the job right because i can get complained on because i have a nasty attitude towards the customer.
I feel that the attitudes around me influenced me to be better than what I am, because I have seen so many people get fired and quitted because they were rude to customer.Some people go to work and they bring their personal lives into the job with them and let the best get to them. So that influenced me to leave my personal life outside of my job and school. When it comes to me doing work I will always have a positive and wonderful attitude I love my job like it was my life I can't afford to lose my job.

identifying your learning style
Topic 4: WHAT IS YOUR LEARNING STYLE?
We all learn in different ways. Most people have a preferred or favorite method of learning new information. In this lesson, you will identify the style of learning that enables you to process information best. Let's get started . . .
Task One: Taking a learning styles inventory - Click on the following Learning Styles Modality Preference Inventory link. Copy the entire document into a new Microsoft Word document that you can save in your "My Documents". Your instructions for how to complete each page are listed below:
Page 1 directions: Read each statement and select the appropriate number response as it applies to you. If what is being described in the statement is true for you "often", write "3" beside that statement. If what is being described in the statement is true for you "sometimes", write "2" beside that statement. If what is being described in the statement is true for you "seldom or never", write "1" beside that statement. You should have a number beside each statement. Choose a best response and do not leave any blank spaces.
Task Two: Identifying which type of learner you are and the way you learn best.Page 2 directions: Read each of the profile descriptions of the three types of learners. After reading each, identify which one describes the way you learn best. Often people can identify with the decriptions given with more than one type of learner. For this task, please choose the one with the most statements that describes you.
Task Three: Once you have figured out the way you learn best, you will need to learn some strategies to enhance your way of learning.
Page 3 directions: Read the list of suggestions of things you can do in class and/or at home to help you learn and retain information and ultimately be more successful in school that fits the learning style you identified in Task Two.
Task Four: Creating a plan of action to help you learn better.
Page 4 directions: For each of the courses that you are currently enrolled in, make a list of of five actions that you can begin taking on a consistent basis to improve your learning in those courses. Type your list under the heading that fits your learning style. For each action, indicate when you will start taking this action and how often you will perform that specific action. For example, if you are a visual learner currently enrolled in a mathematics course, you may need to begin taking better notes and allowing your teacher to review your notes with you to be sure that you are writing down all of the important information. This action needs to happen every day.
