Head Clerk/City Counsel Liaison (Supervisor) (Current Employee), Detroit, MI – May 17, 2012
A typical day at work could be anywhere from calming now an irate customer to working with city council. I have learned that patience is very important when working with customers. Working in management is often very challenging but that comes with the job. Co-workers should be treated with respect at all times and in return you will have a dedicated – more... hardworking employee. The hardest part of my job is dealing with the many personalities of employee's. The most enjoyable part of my job is having a satisfied customer. – less
