What’s the worst menu trend you’ve seen take over? I’m still traumatized from the truffle oil craze. Everything from fries to mac and cheese got drowned in it, and it wasn’t even real truffle. Trends can be fun, but some are just pure ughhhh.

The recent pickle trend has been a bit much. I love pickles, but I don’t want a pickle lemonade.

I worked in a place where they insisted on using that for EVERYTHING. Never liked it before and now I literally will get sick if I smell it. Not only is it overused, a little goes a long way. However, like you said, the Chef's would put sooooo our dishes. Just too much! Pretty sure food should have balanced flavors and not an extreme use of one ingredient, IMO!

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?

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.
