Well ah, my job isn't exactly high up on the charts like you guys are. I work at Ruby Tuesday, but I've since been hand picked for assistant manager training. So I've been doing all kinds of neat things (well, they seem like it
now) like taking inventory, helping stock the bar, making the schedule for the entire restaurant staff (which is the only thing I find stressful). I also have my original hire duties like hosting and serving and bartending. And we BS all the time, playing pranks on eachother like pouring tabasco sauce in a manager's drink.
And I don't think there's many things in the world better than free food.
Overall, it's a good job but I have my nitpicks about it:
-Skill. What you make is entirely dependant on how good you are at associating with people. It's a bummer to make twice what your section partner does and then have to hear them complain because they think you were "stealing tables".
-People. A lot of people can be cool. But a lot more suck some mean stuff. There was a time when people bitching about their food not being right would really bother me and they would leave negative comments on the credit card slip or whatever, but I've convinced myself that I am good at what I do, so the few times that I get negative flack about something gone wrong just rolls off me. A lot of times when something doesn't look the way it should on a plate is because of two things:
-I forgot to put it in the computer right.
-The kitchen staff has a big problem reading correctly.
And I've worked in the kitchen too so I know how much pressure they're under when a big pop rolls in. Kitchen personally wasn't for me so I don't do it unless it's dead, like on a Monday night.
I don't get any benefits there because it's difficult to average over 30 hours a week when there's 81 people on staff for a restaurant that only seats 175 people (this is small in comparison to the three other RT's in the area).
But when you can rake in $216 in two days, it's hard to find a lot of faults.
I can't say I
love the work I do, but I have no problem
liking it.
