I recieve endless amounts of support from my employer whether it's them helping me on something I am not quite sure on on reception or whether it is putting me on more receptionist shifts so I can learn more.

I receive neverending amounts of support from my coach whenever I am confused he will make sure either he can explain it to me or he will schedule me in for a classroom so I can gain more understanding on the topic.

It has helped me alot as it has shown me many different methods on how to make sure I give the customers the best experience when staying in the hotel that I can. It has also taught me the different teachings that I need to know for my role.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
