Food service worker at the Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation

May 2018 • Dearborn, MI

What I liked

My coworkers, supervisors, and boss are all great human beings and great friends. Customers are usually great because they're on "vacation". Start time was usually 9-10 am and ended at 5 so I still had time for online school all summer.

What I wish was different

I wish i started working there earlier honestly.

Advice

Working different positions at the henry ford is completely personal. Making sure you find the right fit for yourself is crucial. I had a hard time deciding between banquet and food service. Most people knock food service but it fit my summer schedule well. There's a job for everyone at The Henry Ford.
