Texas Roadhouse - Port Orange, FL
January 2020 to August 2022
We have a very strict policy of Legendary Food, Legendary Service, & Legendary Experience. I usually have a three table section two six tops and one four top. If it gets busy and they need extra help I very often take on more tables. I take food orders, I serve drinks (regular soft drinks and alcoholic beverages), I take food orders, I also input that order into a Aloha POS system where everything is in order according to the guests seat number. This is so if another staff member runs my food they know exactly which dish goes where. We all help each other out a lot as coworkers. I often am running other servers food orders out to their table. I seat guests with silverware and bread if the host needs help. Talk to each person asking if they’ve dined with us before. I get ice for our wells. I make/brew tea. I do various running side works to keep the restaurant in complete order. There is also a large amount of closing procedures that must be done every night. I interact with guests. Hold money. Make change. Upsell when I can. I currently am still employed with this company and like my job but I’m looking for a new opportunity during the day so I can be home with my child at night time.
Sterile Processing Tech
Cooper Dental Group - Ormond Beach, FL
March 2022 to June 2022
I was hired to train as a sterile technician however upon being hired the company was starting to go paperless and in the process of submitting all files into their new software system. The patients were going to be using an ipad upon arrival to their visit instead of checking in with the front desk receptionist where that employee would usually be the one to take their name and look up their info. So with this I was asked if I could instead help to get all their patient information from the files A-Z into their new software. I trained to learn the new software. I scanned insurance information, Input personal notes, Scanned xray sheets, script notes, made outbound calls in regards to patient info, and inbound calls to transfer out. The process of taking all office files and uploading them to the computer software took a few months and in that time the sterile tech job I was hired to train and work was filled. Office work. Sterile cleaning. Copying. Scanning. I have a general knowledge for this work atmosphere however NOT sterile tech certified.
