Job Duties:
***RFI Response*** This employer operates rides, games and food concessions. For the rides & game stands and food stands, this involves opening the window awnings (with built in gas strut). The worker only has to open the latch and push open the awning. Cleaning would be hosing off dust and dirt that may have collected on the ride, game or food stand during transit. Tools might include water hose, sponge, rag, cloth or paper towels. Supplies might include dish detergent, window or counter spray (such as Windex, Clorox Spray, Mr. Clean). Tools that might be used for minor repairs, adjustments or maintenance tasks are screwdrivers, pliers, rubber mallets, a variety of wrenches and ratchets. Specific Refreshments to be prepared and served to patrons and their method of preparation are as follows: Fountain Drinks: At the start of the shift, worker would open bags of ice (typically 10 to 20 pounds, ice cubed) into both the reservoir on the top of the dispenser and into the ice bin. When an order comes in the worker would prepare the proper size, flavor drink and place a plastic lid on the cup. Worker would place the drink into the serving area so that another worker, with direct contact with the patron, is able to provide the drink(s) to the patron, along with the balance of the order. Popcorn: The popcorn machine is fixed on the counter. Worker would switch it on, scoop popcorn oil out of the container, using a measuring cup and pour it into the heating element, then scoop popcorn kernels out of the container, using a measuring cup and pour the kernels into the heating element. Worker would close the lid on the heating element, the popcorn would start popping, the lid would open due to the force of the popcorn, and the popped popcorn would fall into the bin. Worker would sprinkle the popcorn with additional flavoring, which would be in a shaker (like a saltshaker). Scoop the popcorn into individual popcorn boxes and place them onto the counter under a heat lamp. Another worker, when the popcorn was ordered by a patron, would take a container and then (depending upon what the patron requested) use the pumper to pump melted butter and/or shakers to sprinkle additional flavoring(s) onto the popcorn and then hand to the patron. None of the tasks involve cooking of food from scratch. ***Original F.a.2*** Perform a variety of duties at traveling carnival, assembling, disassembling & operating equipment (amusement rides, game and/or food concessions) May sell tickets & collect fees from customers; provide information about the facilities, rules and regulations; direct patrons to rides, seats or attractions; monitor activities to ensure adherence to rules and safety procedures; provide assistance to patrons entering or exiting amusement rides; clean rides, booths, facilities or grounds; inspect equipment to detect wear and damage and perform minor repairs, adjustments, or maintenance tasks, such as oiling parts; fasten safety devices for patrons, or provide them with directions for fastening devices; announce or describe amusement attractions to patrons to entice customers to games and/or other entertainment; and sell and serve refreshments to customers.
