For my first work placement, I decided to go to Avoca's "Birdcage Cafe". I will be working there for a total of ten weeks!

I start work at 10:30 every Wednesday. Usually, my first job in the morning is to keep the jam topped up and to go down to the bakery to get fresh scones whenever the cafe is running low.

I get a half an hour break at 11:30 or 12, where I am provided with free food and drinks! The food in the cafe is so gorgeous, I couldn't believe my luck when I was told that I could have free break and free lunch every week!

After break, I mainly work on the savory food counter. Here, I serve customers, place hot food orders to the kitchen, heat food in the microwaves, top up salads and serve soup etc.
I really enjoy this part of the day because I can interact with other people and work with the food.
At 2:30, I get to have my lunch. Once again, I am provided with free food and drinks! When I finish my lunch, I go for a wander downstairs with any extra time I have.

After lunch, I might be on the savory food again, or I could be on the cake stand. If I'm not on either of these, I work on the floor, cleaning tables etc., or else I'm helping out with unloading boxes of milk, napkins etc.

My day ends at 5 and I hate leaving because it is so much fun, but after a day of standing and walking around non-stop, I'm happy enough to take off my gloves and say goodbye to everyone!
