    Beautiful course and sage wisdom for any employee. My Dad use to tell me, "Show up on time, do as your told, and don't steal anything and one day you might run the company..."

    I am on my second week at a club here in the Tampa area. Brand new to this line of work but taking it one day at a time. We are EXTREMELY short staffed at our location. The usual staff is around 12 to 15 but we currently only have 6 which is a huge bummer. Working 6 days a week. Can't wait for my first paycheck haha
