I learned a whole lot of job information this summer. I am very proud of what I learned. I really liked how to interview for a job. It was very fun getting to talk to people about myself. I really liked when I got to learn how to write a resume. That was very fun and I will have it for years to come. I really liked every single one of our internships, including the JCC. They were all very fun and I have never volunteered at those places before. I really loved going to Wells Fargo. The man that we talked to is a very nice guy and he taught us a lot. I had an amazing summer. Everyone at Workability is very awesome and CONGRATULATIONS to the students.

 I learned about Self determination and how we have rights to make our own decisions. I also learned how to call in sick from work. Then I learned how to fill in an application for your boss and how it needs to be professional. I also learned how to make a resume for a job interview. I also learned how to disclosure my disability to my supervisor. I also learned how to do a job interview. Finally, I learned how to dress professional at job or an job interview. My favorite part of Workability was getting to know my teacher named Amanda and my two classmates named Michael and Amber. I really had a great time at Workability this summer.

What I loved about Wells Fargo by Michael

What I loved about Wells Fargo was that it was an awesome bank and the people are very nice. It's where I have my bank account. I chose this bank because it is my parent's bank and I thought it would be the right fit for me. I would not choose a bank with rude people.

Today I learned about budgets was very interesting because it requires a lot of math. We also went to meet a banker at Wells Fargo and he explained a lot about a teen account and how we can put into the teen account and we can make get a card filled with money. We can also customize our cards and he also explained how to make our teen accounts and that we need our parents to help us with them. We also did withdrawals and it was very easy because we can just take out money.

My last week of internships was very good and sad because it's our last week and they were really fun. My favorite internship was The Jewish Community Center because I got to help people and use the walkie talkies and learned how to use a printer to print out copies. I also liked going to the Methodist Church to help in the clothing banquet because I got to organize clothes and they all very cute! I really had fun at Autism Society of Southern Arizona because I got see and film what it looks like and the women named Brie was very nice.

How and why I Loved Workability by Michael

7/13/2018

2 Comments

 
I loved Workability because it would teach individuals with disabilities the skills about writing a resume, how to interview for a job, helping at internship site, and helping me with all that as well. My internship sites include video and tech for Workability, park maintenance at Reid Park, clothing boutique at Christ Methodist Church, and the Tucson Jewish Community Center with the walkie-talkies, worked with the copy machine, assemble folders for members, and sort out member sheets alphabetically by the last name. I really loved Workability. It was a really fun experience for me. I am learning fast with it.
