John Gilchrist

I worked at Taco Bell in a fast paced kitchen where I helped prepare food on the line and served guests with a friendly, positive attitude. I kept the store clean from the floors to the refrigerators, sinks and workstations. Because the orders came in hard and fast I learned to move quickly, stay calm under pressure and support my team at every turn. This job made me a faster, more well‑rounded worker and gave me real skills in teamwork, customer service and getting things done right.

I greeted and served guests at the counter and drive‑thru, took and processed orders with a positive attitude. I worked on the line assembling items from fresh ingredients and maintained the whole store’s cleanliness including floors, fridges, sinks, and workstations. I collaborated with team members in a smooth environment and took pride in doing things right. As my first job, this role taught me responsibility, teamwork, customer service, and staying calm under pressure, and I’m proud of how much I grew and how well I ended up doing.
