Food and Fun Fair

At the food and fun fair responsibility for selling drinks was left solely in the hands of SGA, i showed up early to crush ice and make sure the drinks would be chilled by the time the Food and Fun Fair started,and afterward Thaim Abdulla Rasheed, the SGA president, and I (besides two 15 minute breaks) manned the counter almost all day showing perseverance and commitment. We also at all times had two other people from SGA who would cycle in and out in the back room passing forward drinks. At times because we had a monopoly on drinks the stall became swamped with people we had to work collaboratively with others and did so I believe very well. If either me or thaim overheard another ones order we'd include it with our own yell it to the back, the two SGA members in the store room would throw foreward the drinks and like clockwork we very quickly went through a huge number of costomers. Working in such a busy enviroment i also developed new skils I had to multitask, remembering the orders, face of the customer, calculate the change, all at the same time. Proof of my developement: by the end of the day i could simultaneously serve 3 or 4 people at the same time faster than I had been serving a single customer at the begginging of the day.
