I am lucky to have been given a position at Cookes Coffee in Kingston (http://www.cookesfinefoods.com/). Cookes is a five minute walk from my house which is extremely convenient.
The decision to take the Cookes job was not an easy one. I was offered a second interview at the events and promotions marketing firm but finally decided that it wasn’t the right place for me. They don’t focus on the types of event that I want to be a part of. I would like to organize fundraisers and parties while they set up booths in banks and grocery stores which is quite different. I didn’t close a door at the place however, I told them I wasn’t ready to start my career (very true) and asked if they are expecting to any opportunities in the future. So in the fall if I change my thinking they said to feel free and contact them :).
I’m excited to start work at Cookes on Monday. It will be nice to see the difference between a small specialty store and the department store that I am used to.
