fast paced work environment, love working with the customersServer (Current Employee), Klamath Falls, OR – June 13, 2013
Pros: half off of meals 1/2 hour before, during, and 1/2 hour after each shift, and the discount on days off.Cons: no healthcare offeredI start by taking the newest open tables in my section, seating people, getting drink orders, and serving my customers. It's usually non stop service. At the end of my shift, I do my side work, which includes cleaning my section out on the floor, stocking and making back ups, wiping everything down, and rolling silverware.
I have learned that if you – more... leave your life problems at the door when you come into work and keep an upbeat, positive attitude, it rubs of on the customers, and on fellow employees.
The hardest part of the job for me is dealing with the drama between the employees and management.
The most enjoyable part of the job is meeting new people everyday, and striving a little bit harder to make their day just a little more pleasant. – less
