Hi, I'm Thomas, 23 years old, and I work at BIRD and our little sister Mavis as a manager. In addition, I study Health Policy and Management at Erasmus University.
I joined BIRD thanks to one of my best friends when I was 16 years old. His parents are the owners, and I used to visit their home often. During a birthday dinner at BIRD, I asked him if he knew whether they were looking for staff. One of his parents suggested I apply, and we would see how things went. Since then, I’ve been here for seven years. I started as a dishwasher and barback, and gradually I was allowed to do more. Now, you see me working in the BIRD club every weekend.
