Interpretive
What is the most important thing you gained from this experience? Why?
- The most important thing I gained from this experience was that time management is a must. When you have ten orders for the same day that all involve fresh flowers, you have to see which orders will be first and always account for problems, such as the flowers not being opened. The customer’s satisfaction is the goal and when something goes wrong the florist, in this case my mother, has to do whatever she can do to make them happy.
Applied
How did what you did help you choose a topic? Please explain.
- My mother started her own business and luvky for her it is very successful. I want to start my very own business, with my mother as my mentor there is no better. My mom taught me time management and how to talk to customers. She also criticized my floral arrangements and taught me how to take it. I believe all the work that I put in this summer was very productive and I want to make my senor project on this.
