The endless friendships built throughout the years, as well as the countless conversations and interactions with customers.

Describe ‘a day in the life’ working at DYRSL in your current position.
I start my day by greeting everyone and catching up with colleagues, some of whom affectionately call me Hayden (from my brother). Then, I brew a perfect Ice Long Black to kickstart my day. Throughout the day, I assist patrons, manage the gaming floor, and ensure everything runs smoothly. It’s a busy but rewarding role, filled with interactions with both staff and patrons.
What is a fond/funny/stand-out memory of your time here.
There are too many to choose from, but I think one that stands out the most would just be working during covid, the changes in how we worked and how everything ran was something never seen before.
If you could travel anywhere in the world right now, where would you go and why?
It would have to be New York, visited there many years ago and love the place, hopefully won’t be too long before I am back there.
What is the weirdest fact you know?
One of the weirdest facts I know is that there’s a species of jellyfish called Turritopsis dohrnii, also known as the “immortal jellyfish,” which has the remarkable ability to revert back to its juvenile form after reaching maturity, essentially allowing it to live forever in a continuous cycle of rejuvenation.
