where to work?

I have been thinking recently, about where I wanted to work. I haven't worked thus far in school because I wanted to focus on school and grades. I have done well so far... and I am also broke. I picked up an application at Texas Roadhouse, and had an interview today. They told me though that to be a waiter/server, you have to be 21. In Indiana, you only have to be 19 to be able to serve food and serve alcohol, its just that with the corporation of Texas Roadhouse - you have to be 21. I've been thinking of other places, and I have come to the conclusion that I want to be a waiter for sure. I think that it would be so much fun to be in an intense atmosphere with people and life and culture. People go out to eat to have a good time, enjoy their money, and I want to add to that opportunity of fun and relaxation. Not only that, if I am good - I can make great tips. I've been thinking about some other places too. I have a friend that works at Outback Steakhouse, which could be a good option - especially since I don't have a car. Other options are Chili's, Applebees, and Cheeseburger in Paradise. I still have to go to those places to pick up applications and see about interviews and all that jazz, but hopefully one of these will work out because I know for sure that I am broke.

  1. Good Luck :) I will give you a warning, however - Usually, waiters do A LOT more than just serve happy people. I was the world's worst waitress once, and I did a lot of cleaning, staying late to refill ketchup bottles, etc. It can be very stressful. And, while the tips will probably be good most days, some days they suck.
