How long have you worked at The Commons? What is the biggest challenge you have had to overcome in this job? What has required the steepest learning curve? How have you overcome these challenges?
I’ve been working here for 1 year now and I think that the steepest learning curve I had to go through was regarding the policies and procedures. Like for some here, it took me a while to realize who to go to when certain issues occur. Most of the things, however, are actually best if learnt from practice, so I never minded not knowing what to do in certain situations because there has always been someone around that was either more experienced or that at least could share the responsibility of finding out what do to as a team. That said, I think that biggest challenge for me, on that respect, was to properly connect with co-workers and seek out help when needed. In that sense, all the warm-hearted people here at the commons helped me on overcoming those difficulties
