The customer service industry is a tough one to work in, and a place many of us had our first job in. Listen in next week to hear industry experts discuss the in’s and out’s of working in the restaurant business.

  • Professional Career Waiter…. BEST JOB EVER!
    It’s a REAL job, that earns REAL income, to pay REAL bills, and raise REAL families.
    Yet the American culture will not recognize the professional as a legitmate career of choice no matter how much one can earn… including six-figure incomes!!!
    In the meantime, Make It Fun… Make It Easy… Make Some Money !!!

    • Chef Mickey,
      Management’s primary role is creating a culture that works. A great place for “everyday leadership.” Today’s “reading for leading” speaking directly to the issue of “mindset.” http://dev.danmulhern.com/2010/08/whats-it-supposed-to-be-like-today/
