after the lovely julia was stuck in new zealand and we finally accepted the fact she wasn't coming back, we eventually had to hire someone else for the canteen. i told my friend henriella she needed to apply for the job and not long after she started on board with our canteen crew. she used to own her own fish and chip and is awesome with food prep so i am so glad she applied. she's slotted in perfectly with our kooky team and we just love having her here.
i started at the school canteen volunteering a while back just when i had a chance (mainly on the special lunch order days) and was eventually offered a paid casual position to be called upon when someone was unwell or not able to make their shift. that eventually progressed to a permanent one day a week. i'm certainly not complaining as i was happily doing it unpaid, this is just a bonus. plus it's non stop laughs when we are there - i couldn't ask for a better place to work!
