Today was my first day at my co-op placement which is at the Niblick restaurant/pub on eight line. I arrived at 12:30 and walked in the back were i spoke to Fernando who is from Ecuador and also speaks spanish. I had alredy previously met him during the interview. I also met a couple of the servers and two of the daytime employees in the back, Agatha and Tambi. I worked mostly with Tambi who is form Sri Lanka and runs the kitchen when Fernando is not there. He taught me a lot of the prep-work that is done during down-time were there are no orders coming in. It wasn't that busy so i ended up doing a lot of prep-work which i didnt mind at all. Also, i learned how to prepare the special of the day - ham sandwich with bacon and melted cheese with a side of either fries, and variations of soups as well as salads - that ended up selling out. More over i learned how to prepare the Niblick Nachos and also helped Tambi, who is pretty funny, finish the orders. Overall it was a great first day and i look forward to working in the kitchen as well as to eventually moving up to working at the bar. When i was leaving i ran into Mr. Kelly and discussed my placement for a couple minutes and he gave me some useful tips about the placement.
worked from 12:30-4:00
