Starbucks

This week at the Albany Marriott I worked at Starbucks with Ginny. Because it was 2 days before thanksgiving the hotel was very slow, and I didn't get to do much. Ginny also didn't have much work to do so she just explained what she did. She told me that in the morning the first thing she does is start brewing the coffee, while she waits for that she gets her money and starts counting to make sure there is $250 in the register. After she counts her register she goes to the kitchen and gets all of the pastries, and buts them on display. She explained to me that this was not like a normal Starbucks, they only had coffee, tea, and lattes they don't make any frozen drinks. The Marriott was so slow that we didn't have one single customer. At around 1 o'clock she started getting ready to leave all she has to do is count her money and fill out the sheet that goes into detail about how much money is in her register, the other thing she has to do is put away the toaster. Even though there were no customers it was a good experience to work with Ginny and see what she does.
