I really enjoyed my placement at the Roundhouse.
I got to see everything that goes on, behind the scenes of my favourite venue.
Getting to take part in events organising, one day and then tech support the next, helping with youth policy and engagement, getting to work on the roundhouse radio. I got to do so many things, it was a brilliant experience.
Pros
I got to work at my favourite venue and met Newton Faulkner
Cons
I couldn't stay longer
A typical day meant setting up the bar, replenishing stock, cleaning the work surfaces. Then when the event started (be it a music gig or performance) as a bar worker I was required to serve customers alcohol or snacks. When the event finished I would help in cleaning up the bars and moving any stock that needed moving and would help in counting the money in the cash register.
- Productive and fun work place
