My Total Hours
Through working with the Fayetteville Force and Nimock's Fitness Center I have completed a total of 213 hours for Internship 170.
Nimock's Fitness Center (Dec. 12th - Dec. 18th)
This week wasn't a routine week. The basketball ball teams would be practicing in the fitnees center this week because of the preparation for graduation. This meant that thir would be some extra task to be complete in the building during my shift. I would still have to do everything I ususally would do such as customer service, front desk duty, etc. The difference this week was that also I would have to make sure the courts were cleared before the teams practiced, that the divider in the middle of the courts had been raised up, that the courts were sweeped before and after practice, and that everything was set up for open gym after the practices ended at 8pm. I worked Monday - Thursday for a total of 15 hours.

Nimock's Fitness Center(Nov. 28th - Dec. 4th)
This week was a typical week in Nimock's Fitness Center. I helped to make sure the building ran smoothly and was clean and locked down each night. I worked 3 days this week MOnday, Wednesday, Thursday for a toal of 7.5 hours.
Nimock's Fitness Center (Nov. 14th - Nov. 20th)
This week in Nimock's we are still in the process of rearranging the building for maximum efficiency. Like I stated last week, we are trying to lessen the complains in the building about dumbbells. Also this week we ordered a new machine, so we had to find a place for it in the building. I helped along with Cassie Sinkovitz, Kenny Tien with the rearranging of certain machines to make room for the bicep curl machine that was ordered. We also moved the Roman Chair machine to allow more room in the middle area of Nimock's. Then with the help of Dr.Combs we moved the assisted weight bench in the opposite direction it was in, so the people using it would be out of the way of the other machines. We have more plans on how to maximum the space in Nimock's but ran out of the protective black mats so until more are brought the rest of this project we be put on hold. I worked Monday-Thursday for a total of 10 hours.
Nimock's Fitness Center( Nov. 7th - Nov. 13th)
This week we discussed some of the changes we wanted to make in Nimock's Fitness Center. We have been getting alot of complants about Dumbbells being left on track area so we wanted to try to make a designated area for them. The problem is that Nimock's is so small we reallt don't have a place for all the machines. What I ended up doing this week was helping with the start of rearranging the equipment. What we did was move some of the bikes to the front of the building and the sit up area to the back. I worked Monday - Thursday for a total of 10 hours.
Nimock's Fitness Center (Oct. 31st - Nov. 6th)
This week was a typical week in Nimock's. I peformed my usual task and worked 3 days Monday, Wednesday, Thuesday for a total of 7.5 hours.
Nimock's Fitness Center (Oct. 24th - Oct. 30th)
This week was a typical week in Nimock' Fitness Center. I worked the night shift all week and helped with closing the building down. I worked Monday - Thursday for a toal of 10 hours.
Nimock's Fitness Center (Oct.17th - Oct.23rd)
This week we were short staffed because a lot of people were sick. So I ended up with front desk duty(Greet guest as they enter and making sure they swiped there cards) alot more than ususal. I worked Monday - Thursday for a total of 7.5 hours.
Nimock's Fitness Center (Oct. 10th - Oct. 16th)
The concerns I expressed last week came back up this week. When the Director returned she had numerous complaints from guest and work study about last week. I was called in her office to discuss what happened last week. One of the biggest things was customer service skills, so everyone ended up having to go to a customer service training. Other than that everything else was a typical week for me. I worked Monday - Thursday for a total of 10 hours.
Nimock's Fitness Center ( Oct. 3rd - Oct.9th)
This week the Director of Nimock's was out of the building all week, so with all the supervisors only being here for a few weeks I came in at different times throughout the week to help out. I still performed all of my regular task but I also did oversee the building sometime when no supervisor was in the building. One of my biggest concerns was I noticed a lot of employees breaking Nimock's rules. I informed each of them aboutt the rules they were braking and that it needed to be fixed. I worked Monday - Friday for a total of 15 hours.

Nimock's Fitness Center (Sept. 25th -Oct. 2nd)
Now that everyone has been in the building for almost a month I have falling back into my role as a student worker. A lot of the responsibility in the building still falls on me since I am the veteran employee. A problem that arose in the building this week was that the morning shift supervisor was complaining that the mats in the building weren't getting cleaned. Nimocks's director came to me about and I personally ensured her that any night I was in the building the mats were getting clean. Eventually this became one of my tasks that had to be done at night so that she would know they were being cleaned. Another thing that I did a lot this week was front desk duty and watching the person on FDD. Front desk duty is the person that greets guest as they walk into Nimock's and makes sure they swipe their cards. It has come to our attention that people were being allowed into Nimock's without showing ID so I was there watching and reminding employees of the rule. Other then that my duties were the same as last week. This week I worked Monday - Friday for 17.5 hours.

Nimock's Fitness Center (Sept. 19th - Sept. 25th)
This week my responsibilities are pretty much the same as they were last week. The only difference is that with me being the only person on the night shift that has previously worked for Nimocks I am pretty much acting as the supervisor until the night shift supervisor is fully trained and comfortable in the building. One of my main goals this week was to make sure everyone understands the rules, regulations and procedures of Nimock's Fitness Center. Also I came in during the day to help out and make it easier on everyone seeing that their is only 5 returning workers to Nimocks. This week I worked Monday thru Friday for a total of 12 hours.
Nimock's Fitness Center (Sept 12th - Sept. 18th)
This week I found out I will mostly be working at nights but also a few times during the day. The night shift is usually the busiest shift in Nimock's and requires a lot more maintenance, etc. My responsibilities will consist of customer service, helping operate and supervise the operation and maintenance of Nimock's, also making sure that the equipment in Nimock's is maintained and clean, and closing the building down at nights. This week I also came in during the afternoon to help out at the front desk greeting guest and making sure that they swiped into the building because we were still waiting on people to get their contract from career services. I worked Monday thru Friday for a total of 13 hours this week.
Nimock's Fitness Center (Sept. 5th - Sept. 11th)
This week I started finishing my internship hours at Nimock's Fitness Center. I previous worked with Nimock's for my work study. Being one of the few returning people from the building last year, one of my main responsibilities this week will be helping to train the new employees. The new employees will go through a training with the Director of Nimock's but the one's that work with me will be shadowing me all week. Some of my other responsibilities will be to help make sure that Nimock's is ran effectively. I worked Monday thru Thursday for a total of 10 hours.
Nimock's Fitness Center
Nimock's Fitness Center is the local fitness center on campus. For the remaining of my 82 hours needed to complete my internship I will be working here.
