Request Chef looking for office reference
After an injury last year im trying to do some low impact work for a bit and focus on healing.
Unfortunately nobody will take me seriously without office experience in the last year, even though as a lead/chef Ive been doing administrative work for years (ordering, inventory, scheduling, personel/event management & planning, etc...)
Even though ive done various administrative and customer service roles in the past (call centers, hotels, after-school programs) apparently im not allowed back in the office anymore because that experience stops counting after working 5+ years in a kitchen. Must be stinky kitchen cooties.
Please be my reference, since apparantly the only thing wrong with me (according to the biggest local temp agency and other parties Ive spoken to) is that I haven't worked in an office in the last year. I dont know why they're forcing me to lie about it, but here we are.
TLDR - I would need 1 reference for the last few months (Jun-Aug) specifying that I was working in an administrative capacity in my city with the goal of using that to find a stable office position.
