Work

So I thought I'd say a little something about my job. Well I work at the Peaks Ice Arena as an Ice Skating Instructor and I love it. At first I was just an assistant and learning the ropes, then I taught and assisted the SnowPlow Sams,then I had one basic one class. Overall I have taught mostly Snow Plow Sams (kids ages 2-5), Basic one, Basic Two, Basic three, and Adults one, two, three, and four. My Job description includes, teaching, testing, firstaid, remembering names and parents, sometimes I feel like i'm babysitting, go to meetings sometimes to learn differnt ways to teach. Some random times I have helped with skate rental when i've noticed they were busy, and i've stayed late to help clean up, i've done Ice monitoring once, also was part of the Partyplanning comitee.


Near Christmas I was given the opportunity to help out with a christmas show, My job was to tape eight glowsticks to about thirty plus bodies in a very short time. As they were getting on the ice one of the girls came up to me and asked where her's was, I was able to keep my cool and get her taped up in the closest colored glowsticks we had available and then we realized she didnt' have a head band so I ran all the way to the other side and back in time for her to finish up getting ready and onto the ice in the nick of time. It was nice to be depended apon and get things done the right way.


I love my job.
