Managing The Olive Garden.
Yo! My friend and I went job shadowing at the Maplewood Olive Garden, to job shadow our pal, Steve. Steve's the kitchen manager there. We knew him from before so we thought it'd be fun to do that. It was really fun. We tempted the sauces, they all had to be 165 degrees or over. We learned about how much food he has to buy, and we saw all the food that would be used by the end of the night, and thats alot of shrimp! When people ask Steve what his job is like, he says he just buys food for 6,000 people. He's a great manager. We also got lemonade and deserts ^^. It was a fun hour and fourty minutes. Everyone who can, should go job shadow, it's really fun and you can learn alot.

United Hospital Job Shadow
I had a great experience at United Hospital. I was able to visit several places in the hospital and actually shadow a registered nurse in the OB. I am considering becoming a nurse and so this was very helpful for me. I was able to see all different types of nursing, so I will know what to explore when I go to college. I definetly found this worth while!

S.T.C Company
When i went on my job shadow at first it was kind of slow but once the phones started ringing it got interesting. the job shadow expierince helped me make up my mind on what i wanted to do. I decided not to be a debt collecter because it is just one major head ach. The idea of going out and getting to see what you would be doing if you did decide to go into that career. Overall the experiencs was great i enjoyed going and getting to expierience how it really is i the real world. It is not like they show on t.v.

My Experince With a Cop
you image that cops have the easiset jobs ever, but they dont. when i went on my ride along we had to deal with a lot of problems such as a domestic violence call. cops have to do more than ever to calm the victims of crimes down, its not just telling them it be all-right its more. another thing i did on my ride along was a traffic stop, the traffic stopp was just a original stop until we found out the man was drunk, we stopped him for no headlights at approximently 12:30am, finding out the man was drunk helped take another problem off the street.

United Hospital
I had a wonderful experience. Everything that I had to do was amazing. The hospital rooms that I went into was tataly cool. It was nothing compared to what you see in television.
----------------------------------------------------
Special Education
My job shadowing experience was great. I stayed at highland to watch what the special education teachers do and I think their jobs are great. I had fun with all the students. Everyday there is always sopmething different, nothing is the same. So I think I might go in that field.
