Looking for a seasonal job or dreaming of becoming a gelato professional?

In Italy, 7 out of 10 people are dissatisfied with their job. This is the finding of a survey conducted by a research company that interviewed 1,200 individuals between the ages of 18 and 65. It’s a result that gives pause, especially considering we are in a time of high unemployment, when those who have a job should, in theory, feel more than satisfied.

One of the main reasons for dissatisfaction seems to be the lack of motivation and passion in carrying out the job one is paid for. This is not only a problem for the worker but also for the employer who offered that job. Of course, this is neither the workers’ fault nor the entrepreneurs’. Unfortunately, we live in a country like Italy that does little for the former and even less for the latter, suffocating both with pointless taxes that, all too often, end up being higher than the wages themselves.

But what’s the solution?

Flee abroad where you earn twice as much, but then life might cost three times more and you’re far from your loved ones? I wouldn’t say so. Starting your own business? A good idea, but only if you already have at least double the capital you need in your pocket (since banks today don’t lend money to those who don’t already have it), and especially if you have the right skills in marketing, finance, and bureaucracy—on top of knowing the job itself. Otherwise, you might soon find yourself without work and buried in debt.

In a situation like this, working alongside other people with skills different from yours remains the only thing that can turn around this feeling of dissatisfaction.

Results as a source of motivation

This change must necessarily involve a win-win situation, where both the person offering their work and the one receiving it improve their working conditions, and the only way to achieve this is through constant results because it is the results that bring motivation, and not the other way around.

You can wake up every morning with the best intentions in the world, but if the results don’t come, sooner or later, your motivation will drop. And to achieve the best results, you need to work hard and be prepared.

It’s not enough to be a good counter clerk; you must above all be an excellent salesperson. It’s not enough to be a good ice cream maker; you must above all be an excellent manager. It’s not enough to be a good pastry chef; you must be perfect

The Don Peppinu Academy: the path to excellence

But which company allows you to train in this way, and above all, where is there a school that teaches you all these roles in detail, providing thorough training? There’s only one: the Don Peppinu Academy. The Don Peppinu Academy is the school reserved exclusively for Don Peppinu’s master gelato makers. No one can attend our Academy courses unless they work for us.

At Don Peppinu Academy, we regularly conduct courses for Tasters, Conistas, Pastry Chefs, Advanced Gelato Makers, but above all, for Managers. We do this in such a thorough way because we know that even before making an outstanding gelato, it’s crucial to have the best human resources.

We do it so thoroughly because the men who made Sicily great, when they were young, went to apprentice with the elderly masters. And that’s how you become a master—by never stopping learning.
