While interning at the YMCA I have noticed something that I’m realizing is a quality I want when looking for a place to work. The people that work here at the YMCA get to know the members that come in and they get to know the people working around them. They have created friendships that exist outside of the work place. It’s not hard to see either, as soon as I walked in on my first day I could clearly see the friendships that have been developed between staff and members. When I started working with the staff they were very accepting right off the bat and started talking to me and getting to know me. I think this is important to me because being the social butterfly that I am, I’m constantly talking to someone, either catching up or getting to know them. I loving creating new friendships with different types of people especially people that are different ages than me because I get to hear about their experiences and how those experiences have helped them develop. Even of I don’t find a job like this, I think having a friendly work environment is very important because it can make working together with your coworkers that much easier than if there was no type of friendship at all and having this type of work environment makes it easier for new people to come in knowing that they can feel more comfortable around the people that they are surrounded by. So I would want to help contribute to making my work environment more friendly and open.
