BARBACK

Summary

I am a hard working, very dependable, and reliable worker. I also learn very quick! I may ask a lot of questions, but that is my way of getting to know things quicker. I like to think that I am a very outgoing person and I like to bring that attitude to work with me everyday. I am very easy to get along with , but very motivated to stay working. I have traveled a lot throughout the last few years and I have taken something from each state I've worked in and turned it into a positive the next place I go. I'm a high energy person, but I'm able to multitask well to meet customer desires and business needs in high volume environments. Experienced with POS systems, money handling and responsible alcohol service.
