ObjectiveI have been working at The Village for a moment and I loved it. I’m a very happy person; I love to have fun at work, and to make people smile. I, also, know how to deal with situations seriously, as well. I’m looking for another job because I want more opportunities and to have a change of scenery. I’m very hard working and I love to keep busy for the reason that time goes by faster when you have something to do. I try to keep the mood always positive and I very much dislike conflict but, yet, like to deal with it in a professional manner. I can lift 40lbs easily and enjoy taking time from my day to go and work out even if just for a little while. I like to play video games and hang out with my friends in my spare time. I, also, enjoy cooking at home and taking what I learn from the world home with me. It is true what they say, “You learn new things every day.”
