****this snuck up on me, I’m taking 6 classes and it’s all piling up at the same time, I do not have a company chosen, I was going to use one I’ve previously worked at in my retail career and use an employee from memory that needed training and say my methodology was observation. If you have no experience like this to draw from, please let me know as soon as possible so I can detail an experience for you.
