Cook and Counter Worker at The Pub, 2016-Present

I work as a cook behind the counter with a crew of about 3-5 people, preparing food for customers. Jobs
include making pizzas, subs, or things on the grill, we must work together to get meals ready as fast as
possible and not get backed up. Sometimes other jobs include prepping things, and cleaning around in The
Pub, whatever needs to be done, is my job to get it done. I bring a lot of energy to this job when working
and I have had positive feedback from those who I work with.
