I am most grateful for the variety of work that I have experienced this summer. Being diligent and productive during my construction job seemed to be most relevant as I was asked to do a variety of tasks. Asking clarifying questions and questions pertaining to efficiency seemed to be the most useful as I ran into obstacles that I felt could be performed faster. Regarding class, I felt the most important thing I learned was the use of the waybook. Not only was it easy to use, but it allowed me to reflect on some of the values and personality traits that I underestimated before. It also exposed me to a program that I had never used before but can utilize either on a resume or show a future employer the type of worker/traits that I value.
Regarding the internship, I was grateful that TJ taught me a valuable lesson about customer service. If a business can tailor their service to meet the wants and needs of a customer, than both customer and manager are happy. If the customer is happy, so is the business. Therefore, it's necessary for a business to go beyond the standards and allow for flexibility within the service or program. Secondly, allowing a variety of products and services allows a more diverse population of customers who can find exactly what THEY want from the business. There shouldn't be only one rudimentary class at a crossfit gym (or any gym in general). A gym should offer a variety of programs (classes, PT sessions, team events, kids-teen programs). As a result, the community becomes infused into the business, creating a strong sense of community.
