As concerning the same issue of critical thinking and problem solving solution I wish to
notify the firm that has exercised this in my past employment where I was working as an
intern in charge for a hospitality industry at Southern California hence had to solve emerging
issue that came my way especially on food and beverage control Kotler(2006.Pg 25).

at their prevailing current state I managed to navigate through the situation and can tell you
for free that I have been moulded by the experience at that industry hence able to effectively
identify and solve problem at the appropriate time without mishaps.
