About Joshua

I am very experienced in understanding & giving sincere hospitality as well as empathy. I am attracted to being a caregiver because I put myself in the shoes of one in need. I also take care of my 90 year old great grandmother, while she still is in groovy shape for the past she's had. I take PRIDE in abiding by the rules & needs of one who can no longer care for themselves in a healthy proper manner. I enjoy the satisfaction of being able to sleep at the end of the day knowing, I persevered for the good in someones else's life, not just only my own. I'm proud of being able to advance in whatever task I face, with determination & drive to not let things get in the way of finishing the bigger & better picture.

Experience & Education

Painter/Packaging/Stocking`

Jul 2013 - Oct 2014
Southern Steel & Wire Inc
My first night shift job. I worked from 11 pm - 7 am. I was in charge of painting easels ranging in sizes from 18", 24", 32", 54", 66", & 72". After they were made, washed & prepared, I would hook 7 - 10 on a hook, dip them in a giant paint bin, & hang them on a conveyor towards the drying process. Afterwards I would take them all down, stack & wrap them in groups of 5, & build up the box given the certain size, & off they went to the line of other boxes waiting to be shipped.

Hot Prep, Utility, BOH

Sep 2012 - Jul 2013
Texas Roadhouse
My role included opening up back of house, line with 10lb mashed pot. green beans, chili, corn, rice, brown gravy, cream gravy, onions & mushrooms, baked potatoes, making seasonings. - (All within one hour of opening) I was also in charge of salad bar, making cesar/house salads & preparing the toppings also tomato, eggs, bacon, dressing, etc. I also was needed in the "utility" section where the sweet/baked potatoes are prepared - each dipped in bacon grease & salted. I then made boneless wings cutting them into 7g a piece & preparing & separating them from the chicken tenders. When they say Back of House, I did everything except put diamonds on the steaks. I selected the type & cuts of steaks to hand over to the grill after the necessary sear was passed. I also ran the fryers which wasn't a sweat, because it was right behind the salad bar, so getting the fryers going was great for multitasking.
