Hospitality and Catering Apprenticeships

Since you were born you have learnt about the world similar to those undertaking hospitality and catering apprenticeships. Imagine, during your first couple of years you learnt to walk and talk by observing, copying and perfecting. Then as you learnt how to play football, you watched the premier league, practiced with your mates and eventually you were able to do however many keepy-uppies in a row. Then you learnt how to apply nail varnish, you watched YouTube videos, practiced on your own nails, and now have a salon ready look every time you leave the house. This is the same principle as an apprenticeship: observe, practice, perfect.

In this blog post we will go through each stage of a hospitality and catering apprenticeship, determining how you might do each of these stages and what might become of you if you get to the perfection stage.

The three Apprenticeship Stages

Observe – Learning on the job

The central part to an apprenticeship is that you go to work. Through hospitality and catering apprenticeships, you are required to shadow someone in a job similar to the one you are aiming for. For example, if you were looking to be front of house you might follow  waitress or if you were considering the culinary aspect, you would shadow a chef.

During this shadowing, you should try to understand how their process works and how you can apply this to your everyday work. Here you will learn the basics.

Practice – Improve on the Job

At this point you’re ready to get stuck in. Start kneading the dough with your mentor watching or maybe start taking orders and welcoming people to the restaurant. All these observing and the practising patterns will come together and you will notice yourself improving. The main thing to note is do not be disheartened if at first you are not as good as you first expected to be. The whole point of a hospitality and c atering apprenticeship is to learn and improve on the job.

Perfect – Get the Job

Once you have completed your hospitality and catering apprenticeship, you will look to secure a job in the chosen sector. Slowly but surely, you will start to see an improvement in your day to day work and things that you once found difficult, you will no longer have to think about. This is when you know that you have reached perfection in your apprenticeship.

Eye Bolts

An eye bolt is a bolt with a loop at one of the ends. It is usually used to attach an eyebolt to a structure so that a cable or wire can be tied to it.

There are many different variations of an eyebolt, such as:

Dynamo Eye bolt: A dynamo eyebolt will have a larger eye hole than usual and have the name of a Dynamo eye bolt because they were originally used to safely lift Dynamo motors vertically.

Palm Eye bolts: A palm eye bolt is an eyebolt with two straight sides.

Collared eye bolts: The collared eye bolts are mainly used in lots of lifting applications they enable a safe means of lifting by allowing a lifting point so equipment can then be attached, and products lifted safely.

Shackle eye bolts: Shackle eye bolts have curved sides; these are mostly used in the lifting industry and have been for years.

Pigtail eye bolts: Pigtail eye bolts are mainly used for the suspension of pipes and conduits, mostly used underground.

Machinery eye bolts: A machinery eye bolt is fully threaded; these can be used for angular loads up to a 45-degree angle.

The most common types of eye bolts that are used in industrial applications are also nut bolts and screw eye bolts. All eye bolts come in two types of styles plain and shoulder. Each of these does come in different sizes.

As you have read above eye bolts come in various designs, the correct type of eyebolt must be used for the correct job. Each eye bolt used must ensure that it exceeds the working load limit for the job required.
