I've been trying to move up within the restaurant I work. I have tons of experience, recommendations, and determination. My employer is not giving me the opportunity to learn and move forward. How can I go about getting the training and position I desire?

Your employer is probably threatened by you. I think you should move to another company so you can move up and use your skills. Good luck.

That thought has crossed my mind. They aren't a good role model. More of a point fingers and do what I say, but I'm only going to put you down type boss. Where as, I've always been a lead by example type person.

Is the employer giving you anything to work on to move forward? If not, you are going to have to go somewhere that will do that.

I'm worried my manager that's holding me back will do something to keep me from being able to. They've purposely held people in the same position for years because they for whatever reason don't like anyone to succeed.

You should switch to other employer immediately. Otherwise, you can't occupy own dignity ever in your life.
Always remember Self Dignity is primary part of our life rather than Money is Secondary. Forget all about past & move away to different place

It's not that simple. I've tried finding a different job in the past. Not easy to get hired these days for the desired positions. I can't go anywhere I'd make less than I already do. Struggling to make ends met as is.

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. I got a dream opportunity to work in the field making about the same or 10% more. I told myself the only reason I'd leave this company is for this type of job. Should I take the chance at this job and leave the restaurant that is on the rise and growing?
