It all started 6 years ago when I walked into one freezer full of meat and saw other delicacies at Clancey's Meat & Fish Market. I instantly fell in love with butchering and this business, and the owner recognized that. As we walked out she said,"Piet, when you are 14 you can have your first internship here". From that moment on I was counting down the days.
May 9, 2015:
Today was my first day of training at Clancey's. I am really excited but also at the same time didn't know what to expect. I knew that today was only a training day but I also knew that I had to make a good first expression. As I started working I learned new things left and right. I was in the back in a corner washing dishes which is a typical first job at a store like this. I learned how to stay organized and how that would help me make my job a lot easier. As the day went on I got more and more comfortable with what I was doing, my surroundings, and working with the staff. I am so lucky that the staff is so so nice and was willing to answer any question that I had. As the day ended I realized that working in the food industry is actually really interesting and complicated . I really look forward to learning more about food and the this industry as I start my working career at Clancey's.
