"Hi everyone. I'm a former Noah's Bagels employee at this location when I used to live in Stockton, CA. My supervisor was Cuong Le and our manager was Rich Peterson. I'd work in the early morning and I'd set up tables and chairs and prepare for the early morning rush. The other people that helped me were Lynn Nguyen, Steven Nguyen, Cuong Le, Natalie, Dana, Rich Peterson, and that was pretty much it until the afternoon or so. It was very busy and many of us that were part time employees. Steven was the person that thawed out the bagels to put in the oven and for quite a while, it was only me and him in the morning. I'd check the soda machines, sweep and mop, wash dishes, cashier, food prep, and etc. Back then (2000 2002), the wage was $7.00 per hour and we'd have to ask for a raise of $0.25 and if we got it, we'd actually feel happy about it (lol). After a couple months, the boss Rich Peterson, wanted me to deliver early morning bagels to UOP (University of the Pacific) and it was a lot of fun! I had to wake up in the morning around 6:00 a.m. or so and I'd drive my grey Acura Integra (a well known Asian vehicle), I'm Vietnamese btw, to deliver the bagels to the university. There were bags full of bagels (hot bagels) and it was dozens and dozens of different types of bagels: asiago cheese, plain bagel, chocolate chip, sesame seed, poppy seed, cinnamon, onion. I was one of the best employees during that time (Hoang) and Rich Peterson liked us all a lot. Lynn Nguyen and I wanted some new shirts since we didn't have that many shirt designs back then. Rich told us we had to wait because we were new employees. I think it was because he wanted to wait to see if the people he hired would be able to contribute to the place. Since we did well, Rich was willing to order new shirts for us and to also work with us and our ideas. I was 16 or 17 years old back then and I had my haircut spiked up. Sometimes, I'd have it dyed and have it highlighted blonde yellow (I went to my junior prom at Stagg High School with my girlfriend: Tina Dang) like this. Since my hair was spiked up (usually black), I wanted hats that were visor like so that my hair wouldn't be messy. Lynn didn't know why but after Rich ordered it for us, she liked it a lot. The new visor hats (black) and new shirts were very good looking. Many of the customers that saw us told us we looked great and that we did a great job! It was steady business that were constant rushes. From morning to lunch, it was very busy! The morning crew members were: me (Hoang), Lynn, Cuong Le, Natalie, Dana, and Rich (cashier). It was hectic and I found it very fun. It was an enjoyable experience and I learned a lot from my Noah's Bagels years! The last time I spoke with Rich Peterson was a couple years ago when I asked if he was still looking for employees. He said he was willing to give me a job at the rate of $12.00. Since I'm in Sacramento now, it is a little bit too far. I told him I'll think about it after I explore"
