Job Shadow Narrative
Business Owner
I decided to do my job shadow on a business owner because I will like to own a business one day. I interviewed Perfecto Perez a business owner who owns a packing shed and a restaurant. He is a very successful man.
The First question I asked him was if he worked a lot of over time he responded “Yes I do work a lot of overtime because if you have a goal you must try your hardest and never give up to accomplish it.” Next question I asked him was do you ever take work home, he Responded “ yes any unfinished paper work I complete at home to not get behind on paper work.” Third question was what inspired you to choose your career he answered “That he was inspired by thinking about his family and his future he wanted to succeed in life.”
Then, I was curious of how he got started in his field so I asked him he answered “by working hard and selling my produce. “After that I asked him what the most rewarding part of his job is, he responded “To teach my kids how to run their business for one day they can own a business and keeping a roof over my head.” The next question was what is the most challenging part of your job he answered, “keeping my self-focused and on task on whatever I’m doing.” Then I asked how has your career affected your life, he responded “It has affected my life in many good ways by progressing and getting better.”
Last I asked him that how does the economy affect his job, he responded “ that if the weather was no good his fruit will not grow as healthy which meant that he will have to sell the fruit for less.” Then he asked me if I wanted to go check out his fruit I Sayed yes and we went and he took me too look at his fruit and pick up bins full of fruit. On the way back he told me that if I have a goal in life to go for it and never give up no matter what and to not let any addition come between me and my goal. I asked him what advice does he have for a person aspired to enter his career field, he answered “Always work hard and have goals to succeed.
All in all I had a great time with him and he gave me good advice. Perfecto Perez is a hardworking man that had goals in life and he accomplished them. When I was with him it felt like if it was I running the business and I felt great!!
