Throughout my shift my duties included sustaining the espresso station within the heart of the retail ground – lids, sugars, straws, stirrers, sleeves, I saved all the pieces very tidy – cleansing and restocking the restroom, mopping up inevitable buyer spills, ferrying soiled after which clear dish bins to and from the eating areas, and greeting prospects.
