Timea
Pocket Rocket, Cultural Consultant
I always had an interest in healthcare and hospitality to help and serve people. I am very honoured to work for Better Together, because I have the opportunity to get to know wonderful, kind people with disabilities and they make me laugh and are such heart-warming people. I really enjoy working in the café because we work together as a team and it matters really much to me that I work with the best manager I have known.

Lagoon Creek is a great place to work. I don’t feel like I’m going to work - it’s where I go to be with friends.

I love meeting new people. I really enjoy setting up the function room. All the staff here are really amazing. It makes me happy coming to work, I really enjoy it.
John
Supportive Supervisor, Coffee Connoisseur
I have worked in the café since it opened in 2011. I first started working for the Caboolture Community work co-operative mowing lawns and cleaning business offices. My life has changed from living rough, to living in my own private rental, where I enjoy privacy and a peaceful life. Working in the café has given me a feeling of real purpose in life and confidence to enjoy life on my own terms. I often get asked to do public speaking, and I really enjoy it.
I really enjoy working in the café, I get to know all of the customers on a first name basis because they keep coming back. They enjoy the good food and good service, and they tell me how good I am at my job. We work very hard in the café and function room, we love what we do and we have fun working together as a team.
I am often invited to speak publicly, and I really enjoy it. My story might help others understand just how important having a job is. And I always give Lagoon creek café and function room a plug.

I have worked at Lagoon Creek Café for over 6 years and it’s the best place that I could ever imagine working at. I enjoy earning money and its fantastic meeting people every day. I work with a great team, we all get on really, really well. Most of the time we work extremely hard, but we help each other. We laugh together, we enjoy each other’s company and we love to stir and joke around.
