My work experience

Matteo Lopez studies at university and works in a cafe. Every day, he writes a blog about his work experience and his life.

Monday, 12th October

Every morning, I get up at 7 o'clock and go to the cafe. It's not a big cafe. This morning only four people are working here.

Usually, I work in the kitchen doing small jobs, but today I'm working in the cafe cleaning tables and serving customers. Right now, I'm having lunch. I always have lunch at the cafe because the food is delicious and it isn't expensive. Usually, after lunch, I go to university to study, but today I'm staying at work in the afternoon because we are really busy. At university, I'm studying business and I want to work in an office.

I like my job because every day I meet new people and that is interesting. Also, I don't need to wear special clothes. Today, I'm wearing a T-shirt and jeans. The only thing I don't like is getting up early in the morning.

I have a girlfriend. Her name is Monica and she works in a school. She wants to be a teacher. Today, she isn't working as she's travelling to the USA to visit her sister. At the moment, she's at the airport waiting for her flight.

I usually see her every day and sometimes we go to the cinema together. We love watching action films.
