Kitchen Duty

One of the jobs kids had at KEEC was dishwasher duty. Here is a student's description:

I was a dishwasher the 2nd half of the week at keec. I worked with a staff member at KEEC named Matt. He was awesome to worked with. I also worked with my classmates Tanner, Mat, Sean, Maddie, Jon , and Riley. We worked in the back of the kitchen. We rotated jobs so we all got to do all the jobs as dishwashers. The good part of being a dishwasher was we got to eat first then do the dishes. The challenging part was the dishes came in fast so we had to work fast. It was a lot of fun!!!

Another job was hopper during meals. Here is a student's description:

Hopper - In this job you work with a lot of people. You have to prepare the tables by getting the food that wasn't kept warm on the tables before everyone arrived. You also had to put out the silverware and the plates and bowls. you work with the chefs and Trevor the chief hopper and assistant director. One of the good parts of being a hopper is that you get to know what you're having before everyone else does. One bad part of being a hopper is that you have to smell the food before you eat it and when you're really hungry that can be a disaster. You have to work at breakfast, lunch, and dinner but you only have to work for half of the week. You only have 15 minutes to get dressed while everyone else gets 30. And you miss some rec time (recess) in the afternoon.
