Good and bad

I had a great time during my externship I was able to see and learn a lot. During my externship I was able to do anything I wanted to learn like butchering meat and fish, working the line, and working important banquets. The people I worked with were all great. They hard working and always had very uplifting spirits they are the kind of people that you just always want to work with. They make you want to come into work and smile. The Executive chef who was from Johnson and Wales by the way was the same way. Very nice always welcomed you and was willing to teach you anything as long as you were willing to be taught.

If I were to rate my externship on management though I don’t think I would rate them very high. The chef would always hide in the office when there seemed to be a problem. Even though you knew he was pleased he did not like to give positive feedback. When you asked questions about something that should have been ordered by him he would put the blame on somebody else. In other words he did not like to take responsibly for things that were his. When you would try to give him some advice he would give you a look like who are you to tell me that I should do this. Also his way of training was welcome to the line here is a pair of tongs and a towel good luck. In other words he would kind of just throw you in to the fire and wish you luck. In my Option I think for some people that might be ok and for me it turned out ok but I do wish it would have been a little bit of a longer of a training time.
