favoritism

Business Outlook

Pros

If you’re liked, you’ll get the good section and parties.

Cons

The favoritism here was outrageous. Servers would be rewarded with parties and good sections but wouldn’t be willing to do any sidework, complain the whole time, try and leave without doing sidework, and get bad reviews. Sidework was lengthy.

Pros

- clean environment - structured/corporate - delicious food, easy to sell

Cons

- management picks favorites and your sections are based on that - 4 table sections - lots of campers - you don’t make much in tips for how long the shift is - side work usually can take up to 2 hours after your cut to complete - not everyone has good work ethic so you have to pick up for many people’s slack - lots of turnover
