WAITRESS

AIMS & OBJECTIVES

As a waitress; I understand my duties and responsibilitiesinclude greeting and serving customers, providing detailed information on menus, multi-tasking various front-of-the-house duties and collecting the bill. I am able to perform well in fast-paced environments. In my past experienced, I am polite with the customers and make sure they enjoy their meals. And also be a team player and effectively communicate with the Kitchen Staff to make sure orders are accurate and delivered promptly. I also believe that as a Waitress, duties may require working in shifts and/or occasionally during weekends and holidays which I am ready for.
