Sun Tran

Sun Tran visited Workability today. They have 250 buses in Tucson. If you need any help you can ask the bus driver. They also have a Customer Service number is 520-628-1565 and they are open M-F 6 am-7 pm and Sat-Sun 8 am-5 pm. To ride the bus you must follow the rules. Here are some of the rules:

No fighting, smoking, or eating
No loud music
Never run after the bus. The driver is not allowed to stop after he has left the bus stop.
Listen to your bus driver
Respect other passengers (No loud cell phone conversations)
No bad language
If an elderly or disabled person needs a seat and you are sitting in the front of the bus, you will need to offer them your seat
If you leave something on the bus, you will need to call Lost and Found and make an appointment which can take a few days

Sun Tran Visit

Sun Tran visited us today and brought a bus. Before we rode on the bus, they let us know about how many buses are in Tucson and how many stops. There are 250 buses and over 2000 stops. We learned about planning your ride, when to be at the bus stop, and the rules you need to follow. They gave us each a schedule, map, card holder, and pen. It was my first time on a public bus. The seats were very comfortable and the air conditioning was nice. I have a lot of bus stops near my house so maybe one day I will learn how to ride the bus to work on my own!

Riding The Bus

Today at Workability was awesome! I've learned how to ride the public bus for my first time and I really liked it! The things I liked about it were... it was comfy, it was nice and cool and I got to explore a bit of Tucson. I also got to spend time with my friends! So today was awesome! And I wish we can do it again sometime. :)

Teamwork

This week I worked at Big Heart Coffee. I worked with Camille as a team. Camille washed the tables and chairs and I dried them off. We switched off so we could each try. We helped each other. I also worked at Workability doing office work. My team and I made training packets and closed files. We each had a job to do so we had to talk first and decide how we were going to do the job and who was doing each part. I really like working with a team because I like to be around people, it makes the job go faster, and it makes the job fun!

Teamwork

Hunter and I were a team today at Big Heart Coffee. We worked outside and inside. Outside we cleaned chairs, tables, and swept the entryway. Inside we took turns washing and drying tables and chairs, as well as sweeping. We were a good team and we worked hard. We had fun!

Working With A Team

This week we are practicing working as part of a time. At Big Heart Coffee I worked in a team with another person. One of us washed the tables and chairs while the other person dried. We took turns changing jobs. I like being part of a team because it is more fun.

Big Heart Coffee

This week I went to Big Heart Coffee on Wednesday. I love working at Big Heart Coffee. It starts around 10:00 am and is done around 12:00 pm. Big Heart Coffee said all employees should wear a black shirt if they have it, otherwise grey and white are acceptable. Don't use your phone at work. Be kind to others, say please and thank you, and follow directions given by staff.

A Time I Felt Like Giving Up But Didn't!

A time when l felt like giving up but l didn’t was when I l was learning to ride a bike. I fell off the bike a few times and scratched my legs. It hurt and I cried. But I got up and kept trying. Now I know how to ride a bike. I am proud of myself. So keep trying even when it’s hard and you can do it too!
