Last night I didn’t sleep well. I had a disagreement with another manager about how to deal with empty beer bottles. He said we should just trash them. I said we should collect them and have them picked up for recycling. He said it’s not worth the extra effort, and the beer bottles attract flies… What does your restaurant do?

Our trash attracts flies, too. Recycling can save on trash, and it’s a cost-effective service where I live. Depending on your establishment, you could also promote that you recycle, which might win over the manager who isn’t interested.

Oh that’s true - if we promote that we are an eco-friendly joint, then people might like us more!

We rinse all of ours, which is a little bit of a hassle but it's worth it to keep things sanitary. But our manager is really environmentally aware and they do a lot of things to avoid waste.

Wow that’s really good of your restaurant - I tried a while ago to get the staff to wash the beer bottles but the inertia was just too big and I couldn’t make the change… maybe I’ll try again though!

Where do you find the time to get everything done in the day when you have multiple partners, associates and equity partners that interrupt you and want things turned around immediately while simultaneously working on deadlines?

Curious if anyone else is or has been in the same boat. I started as an assistant at an entertainment law firm prior to passing the bar. Upon passing, the partner told me they would hire an assistant for me since I now became an associate. That was 1.5 years ago and I am still in the limbo of juggling my own workload + doing assistant roles for my supervisors. I have also had no increase in pay, which is a huge deal for me. Is this normal in the entertainment world? Any suggestions?

1. Project Allocation - allocated to projects without fitment with the role or skills. No internal job portal

2. Lots of seniors in bench for long time

3. No way to give company feedback

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.

I work as an AGM in a busy restaurant. Been working there for just over a year, and haven't had a single raise. I now only make 0.50 cents more than even the lowest paid shift lead but I am doing a lot more work. I'm no longer satisfied with these conditions. Should I try to negotiate a raise or look for other opportunities?

If I should negotiate, any tips?
