About Me:

Nathan Lynch N8lynch@Gmail.com 216.246.9791 Dear Sir or Madam, I believe that success in food and beverage service is based not only on kind, respectful communication with patrons, but on establishing a good rapport between all staff members as well. One must be able to learn and adapt quickly, prioritize, and minimize the impact of mistakes by being honest and sincere. My experience as a server and a bartender has taught me all the necessary skills to represent your place of business in the most positive way. I enjoyed describing wine and beer at my most recent job and will work to increase your sales of such products. In addition to my existing experience, will work diligently to learn anything I need to know to do this job, and I will never create or perpetuate any rumors, melodrama, or negativity of any sort in your workplace. Please consider me a part of your team. Thank you for your consideration, Nathan Lynch Nathan Lynch N8Lynch@Gmail.com 216.246.9791 Food & Beverage Service The key is to never let the patron know you're busy Skills and Abilities: My bar and restaurant experience has demanded that I excel at multitasking, understand priorities, communicate respectfully, and work hard consistently.
