Advice
Definitely jump out of your comfort zone. If you believe that your a very shy person, get a job that seems so unlike you that no one would recognize you.

Restaurant Server
May - August 2018 • Suffolk, VA
What I liked
This was my 3rd summer with the company and this year I was able to start training for a management position.
What I wish was different
The job income is very inconsistent; it depends almost entirely on the guests. You can deliver the best service they will ever receive and not get just compensation.
Advice
Everyone should be a restaurant server. Everyone. You gain a greater appreciation for all of the small roles in every business and learn how to work with a large variety of different people.

What I wish was different
I wish i applied for the server position instead of a hostess so then there are more roles to do throughout the restaurant, but I still enjoyed working as a hostess.
Advice
Working in this line of work really gave me a bigger appreciation for any worker who works in the restaurant business because it's a tough job.
