Communication Models: Working at the Bowling Alley
Hallie goes to school full-time and works at the local bowling alley, Alley Kats. She deals with customers of all ages, and the establishment has many different entertainment options. Hallie always has interesting stories to tell about her interactions with customers. Sometimes at work she's in charge of laser tag. She explains to groups of about 15 people how to play the game. At other times, she hosts children's parties and teaches them how to bowl. First she demonstrates the proper technique, and then the kids ask questions or give feedback. At still other times, Hallie has to work the prize counter, which she dislikes because the communication is often simultaneous, with several people trying to get her attention at once.
