Good rapport with staff/customers, one drink per shift, half lb of coffee per week

2 of my yearly raises were missed and this was not corrected by management in a timely manner, all while I was being asked to work more hours

Pros

Usually nice coworkers, good regulars, tips can be really good if you’re working busy shifts

Cons

Over worked and under paid. General managers are hit or miss and if yours is bad, you’re screwed and they won’t be held accountable. Some coworkers are bullies with no repercussion. Unfair task delegation. Hard to get full time hours unless you’re upper management.
