My First Job

I recently got a job at Burger King as cashier. It's my first job so I do not know whats a good job and what a bad job is. But the first day I actually worked, I watched several 5-45 minute long videos about greeting people, sanitary directions, and a lot more. I watched for videos for at least 5 days before I actually got to work. The first day I worked, they made a person who just started working a week ago, train me. She was just as new but she told me she had worked several other fast food jobs as well. So that made it easier for her. I did not know what to really do, I just put fries into their cartons and bagged some burgers and nuggets. That is all I did my first day, it was not anything too hard. I later helped clean the diner with my trainer and we got done with things very quickly. It was nice having someone to help, but I felt as if I was so unprepared or my next time at work. The next time I worked, they already put me by myself at the front line. I was so nervous, and I usually never get nervous. They gave me a cash drawer and told me it had to have exactly 125. So once I got my drawer into the cashier, I began taking several orders. It was pretty difficult and I was nervous about everything. I did not know the cashier board very well and it was hard to quickly find the right sandwiches. It went on like this for several days, but I think I have gotten better. It's only been my 3rd week and I think I got the hand of most things. They just recently started training me on drive-thru as I do front line so I hope I can be more useful and do drive-thru and front line soon enough.
