I’m seriously mad. I’m not making enough money. Restaurant restaurant biz is hard. I have to ask family for help with watching the kids. How do you mentally get out of this pit where you always feel you’re just not doing well enough?!

Your feelings are valid. A lot of us aren't making enough money and it seems like money would be the solution to all the problems we have, but it's just right out of reach. One thing that I do to mentally reset is to call up my best friend who lives on the other side of the country and just talk and cry for a little while. Sometimes that's all you can do!

I’ve put myself up for L4 promo this cycle. Assuming I get it, what would be the best next steps to optimize for long-term growth/TC?

My understanding is that L5->L6 is extremely painful at
Google. It may be easier to leave for a handful of years and gain managerial experience before returning.

L4->L5 is less challenging; however, I’m under the impression I can do this quicker at another company (if I leave after being freshly promo’d) AND get higher TC.

TC: 270K

Check the overtime laws for your state!!

I just recently worked 58.6 hours in a week, weekly pay, nice OT profit right? Depends on where you live.

In Iowa, there is no Overtime pay mandate, the overtime pay is at the discretion of the business. I received 58.6 hours of base pay for the week.

If the company makes less than $1 million per year or does not engage in intercontinental sales, the company is not required to pay the overtime rate of time and a half, just your base rate.

So I work as an assistant manager at a restaurant for the past 9 months. I've worked in restaurants for the past 6 years science I was 16. Now I'm 22. I went to a trade school for media and film.
