Excellent learning curve

I started here as a learnership student but because of my commitment and my attitude I ended up being employed permanently and I have learnt a lot in this department and because I was willing to learn became my Managers right hand man she taught me everything I had to learn now even if she's on leave she lives me with her duties I have a good relationship with my colleagues one thing I know if I leave this place the person who will work in my shoes will have big shoes to fit in, I'm always willing to assist them whenever they need help and I enjoy that a lot. The only challenging part for me is when we are short staff and I'll have to do 3 peoples jobs because they are off sick and whoever needs my services won't understand when i have to help the other one but I also don't complain I enjoy that too

Pros: its a great opportunity
