So after months of searching for a restaurant server/bartender role, I finally got hired, and now I'm wondering why I even applied here. The manager is forcing me to continue "training" while I'm actually training my trainer. I've been taking orders and using the pos alone! Even as we speak, I'm waiting (over an hour) for my "trainer" to show up, I'm asking her to just "validate" me and put me on the floor,but she is refusing. This industry has turned into a joke! This is utter ridiculousness‼️​

You can trust that I understand your frustration. But I would caution you. Before you consider quitting think about how long it took you to get this job. Now think about how long it will take you to find another job after you just quit your new job. Find something Else before you quit.

Ugh I am sorry to hear that. I will say, the job market is rough right now. So having something is better than being unemployed, but I do know how you feel!

That happened to me at Chartwells in Ottawa. They asked me to train a new dishwasher for for nighttime. It took me over an hour by buss to. I know the feeling. Then I closed by myself. You have to be professional telling the hiring manager you’re not interested. I’m glad to live closer.

Hello All, I’m a project manager but seeking to pivot into UX Research. I do have some experience but don’t have a portfolio yet. Can anyone advise if I should focus on going through a bootcamp or focus on getting a Masters in HCI? Or just building a portfolio with the experience I do have? There are very few entry-level roles and many places are only hiring “Sr UXR” with 3-5+ years of experience! Any tips on how to break into this field and/or stand out as a junior applicant?? Thanks!

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?
