19...clerical work?
such as filing paper and shit?

my parents say that the cooks are total assholes to waiters because the restaurant revolves around its cooks. so the cook can fuck you over by making the customer's dishes too long/wrong.

thats probably true


yes i mean filing paper and shit
also answering phones, data entry
usually less stress than food service and alot less contact with the public
and if you choose the right company you can move up within the company if its in your career field

idk, i find that stuff kinda boring...i HATE answering phones, i even hate calling places to check what time they close/open.

plus, i like the fact that in a restaurants you get tips on top of being paid hourly.

ill check it out though, i wouldnt mind doing front desk at a hotel tohugh.

Uh...the hourly wage I made at a restaurant was $2.19/hr. So tips ARE your main income.
