What do you look for in a teenage Employee?

I am thinking about finding myself a Job soon, but i live in a very small retirement community, so I may really need to have a step up.

What do you look for in a Employee, or fellow worker?

A little bit about my history (tell me if i need to add anything)
1.I am planning on going to culinary school in a few years (going to look for a job in a restaurant as a dishwasher/waitress/prep chef).
2. I have 1 credit left to graduate since I home school.
3. I just turned 16
4. I am pretty respectful, work well with almost all people, don’t cuss, don’t talk back, try to do everything I am told to do the best I can, working on doing everything with a bubbly attitude (this one is taking me a little while).
5. Am interested in learning everything that i can about everything
6. My parents own a business and i have worked there a bit (auto repair)
7. Other than working with my parents i have done a little house cleaning, Pet sitting, and child sitting ( no complaints can get references from all if needed)
8. Can do mornings or evenings
9. Hard worker with out being pushed, especially if i like/respect the person I am under
10.have a little bit of wrist/hip problems, but do my best to work around them (similar to juvenile arthritis, but no cure)
11. HAVE to have thursday evenings and weekend mornings off (church)
12. Volunteer in the lower grade band classes, learning to teach them.
13. Good grades (A’s and B’s {one C in middle school})
14. Can read well, Type well, write well, spell tolerably, do math in my head (to a reasonable degree), Have gone through training to speak to many people at a time, able to work out most problems…
15. I am honest, doesn’t lie, and have a high loyalty standards
oh 16.No tattoos, my hair is its natural color, 2 ear piercings but usually wear small studs, wear respectible clothes (t-shirt, jeans and a hoodie, nothing to tight or baggy)
17. Work well with dealing with people one-on-one. Am actually a people person.

What else do you look for in a person that you would have working for you or with you?
I am terrified to do the interview, so any suggestions with that? Any serious help would be appreciated!

Thanks!

I was diagnosed with juvenile arthritis in my right hand about 3 years ago, and now my left knee is starting to feel the same as my hand does. I’m worried because I’m going to a HUGE two day event where we’re going to be walking around for about 10 hours the first day, and 12 hours the next. Not too long ago I was walking around just for an hour after work, and my left knee seriously felt like jelly, so how do I tend to my knee? Are the certain types of foods that I can eat to help ease the pain, and what excersices and stretches are there that I could do before, during, and after my 2day event?
I would much appreciate someone’s help, even if this isn’t the most exciting question to answer.

MMR Vaccine help?? Should I get it,or not?

On the information leaflet it says you should delay/not get it if you have a low immune system,or a disease which affects the immune system. And if you have gotten it twice before,it’s still advised to get it again.
But I’m in a predicament…..I have Juvenile Arthritis,a type of Rheumatoid,and this causes me to have a very low immune system,and the meds I’m on affects my immune system also. Because of this,I pick up things realli easily. I’ve had the vaccine twice already,but I was talking to someone who’s nephew got the vaccine twice and he still got a severe case of the mumps.
Any doctors/nurses/medical people out there?? Or anyone who could help?? What do ye think I should do?? Should I get the vaccine,regardless of my comprimised immune system??
I don’t want to get the mumps…..I get realli sick with a cold or the ‘flu,I’ve had the ‘flu for the past 3 weeks,on my second course of antibiotics and it has now developed into a chest infection…..
Thanks in advance
Yeah…..I did get it twice as I mentioned in my question,if you actually read it…..and people ask lots of random questions in the Ireland section,what does this have to do with travel in Ireland:

And I was just looking for help,thank you very much. Obviously you think I’m THICK enough to say ‘Oh,I’m gonna do exactly what such and such a person said’ I just wanted opinions…..

Prednisone and no period?

so, i’ve been on predsnisone for juvenile arthritis for a few months now, and in july i got a brown discharge while on it. my sister and mom said that i got my period. but its been 4 months and i havent gotten it since. whats going on!?

I turn 23 in a couple weeks and I have had chronic neck/shoulder pain everyday since I was 16. I have dealt with lots of death and stress since I was 12 so could stress really make me hurt this much?

Or could this be a medical condition like juvenile arthritis? My right shoulder is constantly swollen and larger than my left.

I am considering a deep tissue massage. I am also very small and do not have alot of muscle tone. Does anyone know what this could be? What could help? Thank you!

For over a year I frequently develop a fever (a few hours a day) , start feeling nauseous, get mild headaches, muscle aches, joint aches, and temporary dizziness ,LOSS OF SIGHT, and severe headache for a few seconds often when I stand up after lying down for more than half an hour.

I’m uses to being miss and under diagnosed. It took 5 years to be diagnosed with a bad case of equines (the worst the doctor had seen in 14 years. Yet three other doctors said it was in my head.
I know there’s something wrong because you dont just temporarily go blind after standing, even if it is only for a few seconds.
I’m 14 and live in australia if it helps.

been to my doctor heaps but he just dismisses it, despite being diagnosed with about three other conditions he dissmised. (equines, juvenile arthritis and patella femoral.

any ideas what could be causing it.

its definately not the heat, yet because it’s been winter so its only 19 or 20c but the heat makes it a LOT worse

Modeling contract…?

I was offered a modeling contract to do modeling in my wheelchair.
You see, I’m a girl who has Juvenile Arthritis and sometimes I am in a wheelchair.
Recently I’ve worked hard to get walking and out of the chair. In fact, I only had to use it a few times this last winter. I’m so much better now that I’m even doing some ballet. (Not en pointe, of course.)
My Arthritis moved to my wrist. I have always wanted to model, but do I really want to be known as the wheel-chair girl? I’m not even in a wheelchair anymore, and I worked so hard to get out of it. What if people don’t want me for anything else and if I get a job where I have to stand will people call me a faker who was in a wheelchair just to get work.

I’m sooo confused!
What should I do!?

What could be my back problem?

So I went to the doctor a few days ago, because I have been having horrible lower back pains, and i am currently abroad, so my host mom thought it might be my kidneys or my pilondial cyst, but the doctor said it was my lower back and that was all.

I have had hip pains in my right hip since I was a child, but we never had it checked out, it was suggested maybe i had juvenile arthritis and that was what we accepted and never got it looked at. But for the past two weeks I have had horrible lower back pain, and I get horrible hip pains once at least every three weeks.

At the moment we are doing nothing about it, and I am considering going home to get everything checked out, even to just find that I have just arthritis in my hips, I am just concerned it could be nerve damage I have had for years.

If I sit for long periods of time, its miserable, and I cant walk for more then fifteen minutes comfortabley. I think when i was in middle school they said i had 5° scoliosis but that wasnt a big deal and I have a arch in my back because i have a big butt so laying on my back with out having my knees bent is extremely uncomfortable and i cant bench press with out my feet on the seat.

so any suggestions?

is it possible to lose weight without exercising? ?

Help about the MMR Vaccine?? Please answer?

Ok,here in Ireland the HSE are giving out free MMR vaccines to TY,5th and 6th yrs and third level students. On the information leaflet it says you should delay/not get it if you have a low immune system,or a disease which affects the immune system. And if you have gotten it twice before,it’s still advised to get it again.
But I’m in a predicament…..I have Juvenile Arthritis,a type of Rheumatoid,and this causes me to have a very low immune system,and the meds I’m on affects my immune system also. Because of this,I pick up things realli easily. I’ve had the vaccine twice already,but I was talking to someone who’s nephew got the vaccine twice and he still got a severe case of the mumps.
Any doctors/nurses/medical people out there?? What do ye think I should do?? Should I get the vaccine,regardless of my comprimised immune system??
Thanks in advance.
