What’s the most chaotic holiday shift you’ve ever worked? (Holiday season is just around the corner 🙃). For me, it was Valentine’s Day 2023 with 3 proposals, a kitchen fire, and a guy who threw up in the bathroom sink all in one night. By the end of service, I felt like I’d aged a year in a single shift. Holiday shifts always seem to magnify the chaos. What holiday gives you the most PTSD, and why?

Should I take the chance at this job and leave the restaurant that is on the rise and growing?
