Server (Former Employee), Charlotte, NC – May 15, 2013
Cons: not enough hours
This location was located at the mall. I enjoyed it at the beginning because I was receiving enough hours, however being there for a year, they cut back on hours and a lot of the times I would have 4 hours a week. I wasn't able to make a living off of 4 hours.

Action packed, fun work environement
Hostess, Server (Current Employee), North Brunswick, NJ – May 10, 2013
Pros: employee discount, family-like stafff
Cons: no breaks, no real benefit package
Usually, I am never tired even after 10-12 hour shifts. My co-workers make it fun to work there, management makes it easy to work there, I usually deal with great customers. I've learned how to be patient, complete tasks quickly and efficiently, and also multi-task very well. The hardest part of my job is dealing with long ticket times on food from – more... time to time. Other than the occasional kitchen mix up, I enjoy everything else about my job. – less

Fun, social work.
Server (Former Employee), Leawood, KS – May 6, 2013
Pros: all the skills one can learn.
Cons: hard work, can be stressful.
Serving people and waiting tables seems like a "blah" kind of job. However, it is very rewarding. Even if the pay isn't what one would like, the people (customers, coworkers, management) make the environment very enjoyable. Though one will have to work hard, feeling all most as if one just left the gym afterward, what one can learn about people, customer – more... service, communication, listening and so many more attributes will help one succeed in life. – less
