At Panera Bread, we believe the heart of our business is our associates. We always try our best to make sure our associates are happy. Let’s face it… happy associates = happy customers! Therefore we want to take the time to recognize one of our rising stars; Mr. Anthony Carchietta.
Anthony is an associate trainer at our Winchester café. He started working at the café about five and a half months ago. Anthony goes above and beyond to make sure every single customer feels special. Often positioned in the dining room, Anthony can be found gabbing with the customers as if he has known them for years. In my recent visit to the Winchester café, I had the privilege to sit down and get to know Anthony a little better. Below I have outlined my conversation with Mr. Carchietta.
Who is your favorite customer?
“I really enjoy getting to know all of our customers, but I’d have to say Peter & Shelia are two of my favorites. Sometimes Peter will even bring his parrots to our patio to show us!”
What is your lifelong dream?
“I would like to become a History teacher.”
What do you do in your spare time?
“I enjoy reading…mostly non-fictional History books. Currently I am reading a book by Howard Zinn.”
What is your favorite food at Panera Bread?
“I love the Tomato Mozzarella Panini!”
What’s your life mantra?
“Two things, I would say;
1- Treat others with kindness.
2- Live everyday like it’s your last.”
If you had a theme song, what would it be?
“Unknown Soldier by Breaking Benjamin.”
Anthony, what can we say? We are thrilled to have such a positive, upbeat, personable guy like you work for Panera Bread!
