Cut to fit

chefs hatI’m starting to feel a lot more comfortable at work. I get nervous working up front at the register, I end up feeling more pressure when helping customers. I’m slow and worry about getting their order wrong or making their espresso drinks poorly, but it’s getting easier.

I spent most of the day yesterday in the back helping to prepare foods for today. I’m slow with a knife, but everyone has been really helpful in showing me tips. They all seem to understand that I’m coming in with no experience in that department and have been very patient with me.

My big story from yesterday was from dicing onions. The first few had me crying, but after a while I couldn’t feel it anymore…although I did feel a bit dizzy! I made sure to take breaks and drink water. ^_^ I felt sorry for the gentleman working next to me though. When Kimi came back to visit me, she said she felt the wave of onion from five feet away. She kept her visit short!
