Q& A

Where do you work?

I work at the Jewish Community Center gym, I have been working there since late July. I am a weight room attendant so I help out when people have questions with the machines, and how they work. I re rack weights and make sure everything remains clean.

What was the reason you decided on this job?

I wanted to make my own money, and I wanted a job where I would be able to socialize and be active. So, I felt that a job in the gym would be the best way to do that. After my shift is over, I like to workout to stay fit. In particular I chose to work at the Jewish community gym because I wanted to experience a different culture and community.

Have you had any unique experiences while working?

One time, I was helping someone out with a machine and I realized that he owns a famous business. So I asked him about it and he told me about the whole process, what he did in high school, and more.

Does your job cause you any stress?

I think it’s a very relaxing job and I only work once a week on Sundays now since school started. I actually love going to it, and I look forward to talking to new people.
