Reason
I’ve found the staff at these locations to be really friendly. They treat you like family even after only a couple of shifts.
Why did you start working for Upshift?
I heard about Upshift online in February, 2022. I had been working on some ride sharing apps in my free time but was looking for a change. I didn’t really want to go back to a traditional job with a set schedule. Upshift allowed me to have the same flexibility as those other apps but without having to sit in a car all day long. I was so glad that I found Upshift because it allowed me to work flexibly around my full-time job without sacrificing my personal life.
What do you do outside of Upshift?
I like to spend time outside when the weather is nice. Either taking long walks with my dog or riding my bicycle. I also love to travel, especially on cruises to different places. My sisters and I are actually planning a cruise for later this year because that’s something we all like to do together.

Do you have any advice for new Upshifters?
I always recommend to new Upshifters that they read the shift details thoroughly. That’s something that I always do to make sure that this is a shift that I want to work and that I can be successful at. This helps with your preparation for the shift which is really important to being successful.
What have been your favorite shifts so far?
Some of my favorite places to work have been Unidine at A.G Rhodes and Flik at NCR Global. I’ve found the staff at these locations to be really friendly. They treat you like family even after only a couple of shifts. I worked several different positions during my time on Upshift including server, dishwasher, bartender, food service associate and cook. The nice thing about getting experience in a variety of positions is it gives you more options when you’re selecting shifts in the future.
