Never shut the door on an opportunity. Always work your hardest. Find how to make something work that makes you comfortable.
When applying for a job it’s almost a gut reaction I have with people. I love walking into (or out of) somewhere and saying, “Wow, I was so lucky to have spoken with them. That person is fantastic. I want that job.”
I say that more time than I get the job BUT having the right attitude is more than half the battle. That and to keep trying.
About a month before graduation I applied for a job at Ger-Nis Culinary and Herb Center located in Brooklyn. I really wanted this job, but it wasn’t the right fit. Nothing wrong with that, in fact, it worked out better than I didn’t get the full-time position.
Instead they hired me as a cooking instructor, something that I didn’t even apply for originally!
I advertise that I teach cooking classes on this site, but beyond that, I love working with people. At Ger-Nis I’ll be able to share my love for cooking with people eager to learn.
Not only am I very excited to be a part of this company but I’m excited to share my knowledge about food. Check out and sign up for my class or any of the others offered by Ger-Nis, it’s a great way to get in the kitchen!
The three classes I will be teaching in the upcoming months are:
- Bread I – The Basics 8/17 6 PM – 9 PM
- Bread II – More Dough 9/16 6 PM – 9 PM
- Children’s Pizza Class 9/18 12 PM – 2 PM
