Conclusion

• For my first work term I really enjoyed working
  together with Craig and his sous chef John. Both
  taught me a great deal that I know I would not
  have been able to learn in a classroom setting.
  There is so much that you learn just from
  repeating it day in and day out. Although I know
  there are certain things I might not have had the
  opportunity to do. Come fall, I know Ill be able
  to experience and learn how they cater to movies
  contracts.
• I came with four fingers and a thumbs on each
  hand, and I came back with four fingers and a
  thumbs on each hand, to me thats always a good
  thing.
