Tettegouche State Farm Observation Report
Today, I got the opportunity to switch up my schedule a bit and work maintenance at Tettegouche State Park. I started my shift by meeting at the maintenance shop to get briefed on my daily tasks. Today I was tasked with mowing the grass at Eckbeck and Finland State Forest Campgrounds. It was actually one of the first days I got the opportunity to work with the other operations intern Jena Murray. So, we loaded up the equipment needed and headed out to begin mowing Finland State Forest Campground. It took us until about 11:00am to finish mowing Finland, so we then took an early lunch and headed off to Eckbeck. We finished mowing Eckbeck State Forest Campground around 4:00pm where we then headed back to Tettegouche. Upon our arrival at the maintenance

    Upon arriving at The Tulsa Day Center at 8 a.m. I was overwhelmed when I noticed that the line into the building had already surpassed the door and was almost to the parking lot. After weaving through the crowd of people attempting to get inside the building, I explained to the security officers that I was a volunteer and proceeded through the metal detector. The Officer then instructed me to sign in, and pointed me to the clothing room where I would report to Forrest. After a couple of seconds of trying to figure out where I was going I stumbled into the clothing room, and introduced myself to Forrest. He was excited to have some help. He took me over to 3 extra-large laundry baskets and asked me to fold all of the blankets and sheets while…

    On 8-13-2016 I, James Argyro, was a No Call No Show for working at the Tulalip Resort Casino, for my scheduled shift in the security department. On the morning of my shift I got into a argument with my wife and she told me that she was leaving me and taking my son. I spent the day talking to her and working out a family matter. I should have called in and talked to any supervisor and informed them of what was going on. I understand how I left the team without a full staff for the day and how that adds stress to each person, because they have to pick up the slack for my failed.…

    Some interns would help me carry out the signs and correctly place them throughout the concourse and others would help me gather the data needed to update the spreadsheet. Once the gate opened was when communication really became crucial. I oftentimes worked at Guest Services where I was in charge of handing out the prizes for the different promotional events throughout the game; therefore, I had to be communicating with the interns at all times to be aware of which prize was being handed out to who at what time. I think the hardest part of the job however was the long hours. I knew after standing for five or so innings all of us interns were exhausted and hungry. With this in mind, once my job was done at Guest Services I would eat and then start relieving other interns of their positions so they could take a break as well. With how many hours we all worked, it was important to make sure everyone was able to take the same amount of breaks to…

    It was the first Monday of the week, and I had to open with my boss Tenesha. She was my boss at Starbucks, but had the same duties as everyone else that worked at Starbucks. On Mondays, we usually had a rush of customers, rushing to get a hot cup of coffee for the road to work, or just morning moms wanting our new brew of coffee for the week. But Tenesha had inventory that week, so I was stuck making coffee all day till Andrew, another employee came in around 1 p.m.…

    The Food Bank was the perfect place to offer our services and it was an honor to participate with my fellow peers on this particular volunteer experience. The staff and volunteers welcomed us with warm, open arms. Due to prior registration through one of our students, those arms were overly outstretched. As a class, we had an opportunity to participate in the packaging of the foods that were being donated to those families in need in the Houston area. It was our job to sort these foods in their designated containers. These containers needed to be separated for items such as canned foods, sweets, bottled drinks, and household items just to name a few. Before the rules of engagement were discussed, the people facilitating the whole movement provided us with general rules we needed to adhere to promote the overall experience. In this beginning, proper instruction was given to all concerning the Do’s and Don’ts of doing such a task. This task required us to be active, and to remain on our feet while adhering to a few rules. Ultimately, they wanted to make sure the process would be a smooth one. There were tons of boxes in the back, where we had to go and retrieve them, separating the contents in the bins. After the bins were filled up to the top, we now transferred them to on movable shelves that stacked bins into the back. This process ran smoothly and we had no problems assisting others. As time progressed, we had opportunities to get to know some of the participants when we stopped for lunch. Many of the volunteers who partook in this experience showed the same amount of willingness to help the community as the University of Houston-Victoria students. We all worked as a team and had a great time doing it.…

    Josh decided that he would do the “lift residents”; I was very appreciative and said thank you. He also agreed to take care of the “bananas” room. By 8:30, I had finished round 2 and I needed to start giving the residents their snacks. Walking into the rooms of those who were still wake, we distributed the snacks and pulled the curtain as to not disturb those sleeping. After distributing the snacks I walked into the conference room and grabbed the green binder to chart our activities for the day. While charting I think to myself, “thank the Lord I have a break”.…

    Over the weekend of November 5-6, myself and some fellow LEADStrong leaders had volunteer our weekend at the Villanova 28th Annual Special Olympics. The reason why I’ve chosen to do this as my service project because ever since I was high school I’ve always loving to arrive onto campus on cold early morning seeing all the smiling faces of everyone involved with the whole event just puts me a better mood because in the beginning it can be overwhelming. However, once the first hour passes you can’t help to feel like you are a part of something great that words cannot describe how fun this weekend truly is. While spending my service hours at the Special Olympics some of the jobs that was covered the course of the weekend included: proving the…

    Working for this volunteer program has greatly tested my comfort zone when it comes to a lack of information. I had originally thought I would be doing the same conservation work in the same location for the same amount of time every day. The reality could not have been any more different. I rarely worked in the same location more than once during the whole two weeks, and I never knew where I was going to be working until we arrived there. It was originally agreed that I would…

    This week I had an opportunity to go mentor on Friday October 22nd and on Monday October 25th. I was really excited to go on Friday because I did not have a chance to mentor last week due to my hectic midterm schedule. However, right when I stepped into the classroom couple of kids told me that Andrea was out sick. I was really disappointed because I wanted to ask her some questions about her family and talk to her about the book that we were going to make together. Since Andrea was absent, Ms. Silva wanted me to help the kids out on couple of grammar worksheets that they were working on. First, Ms. Silva led a math discussion. They were starting to learn basic algebra. Some of the students were starting to get confused because now there were letters involved in a math equation. Also, some of the equations were difficult because the kids were not getting the concept or haven’t mastered their times table yet. After math time was over, Ms. Silva started to work with the reading groups. While she did that, I went around the classroom to help those who were struggling with their worksheet. They were mostly working on contractions and synonyms. This was a good exercise because they…

    You are the coordinator of staff development for Imperial Oil. It has been recently announced that Imperial Oil is moving its headquarters from Toronto to Calgary. The news has been greeted positively by employees, but a few are unhappy while others already working in the Calgary office are unsure how well the amalgamation of the two offices with their different cultures will go. Recognizing the feeling of uncertainty, you decide to hold a series of corporate team-building retreats shortly after the headquarters move to Calgary. The retreat will be led by the Great Canadian Adventure Company. Employees will meet in downtown Calgary at 8:00 a.m. and buses will pick them up and take them to the Sylvan Lake area. There, they will spend the day on team-building like map-reading exercises that will require employee teams to find their way through a wooded area to a “home base” where lunch will be served. The group will return to downtown to Calgary by 7:00 p.m.…
