Haven't made a post in awhile :)

Hello everyone there :) sorry I haven't made a post in awhile but iv had a couple of issues that iv had to deal with. You see the great thing about apprenticeships is that not only are you studying but your living real life aswell and that teaches you it's own lessons, it makes you take on responsibility and you learn how to be an adult, make decisions and better yourself.

And that is what I have been learning this past week, that I have to do what's best for myself but also very importantly the job!!! See I had to go back to London this week but I only stayed a few days and then was straight back to work. Also another little lesson for you all is remember don't keep taking without giving back!!!!! If your manager helps you out and does a favour for you also remember to give something back and work hard. 

Since starting the apprenticeship firstly I found it hard and quite scary as it was all new to me and sometimes it gets very stressful and you wonder if you can do it!! Trust me you can, you won't be perfect everyday and you will make mistakes that is okay as long as you learn from them and do better next time. Also I have learnt to push myself and sometimes I might be a big worried to do something or I might think I can't do it, but I do I anyway because its always the hardest the first time and don't be afraid to fail because you will learn and get better. 

So far I have worked on the tills, that is always good for skills with working with money and making sure the customer is happy with everything,  I have also worked on front house which is greeting customers, taking orders, making sure they have everything they need and also serving their food and drinks to them, I have also learnt how to make a range of great coffees and I also work on the coffee machine which I take great pride in as a good coffee means alot and customers will remember if the coffee was great :) I have also started to learn to make some food aswell. This is the beauty of an apprenticeship I am learning all these amazing skills and getting better every day and still studying. 

Sometimes you might think that you can't be bothered to go to work or the early mornings but go anyway no matter how you feel get up and show up!! Trust me it will pay off in the long run, and also you will feel so much better and so much proud if you do make the effort everyday and you do give 100% it will pay off and give you so much more self satisfaction and pride, you can't bet that :)
