RESPONSIBILITIES
As a Server, these are the results you'll be hired to accomplish:
» ① Deliver ‘Good-Time’ Hospitality at Every Table » ② Flawless Steps-of-Service Execution » ③ Back-of-your-Hand Menu Guidance » ④ Guest-Ready Front-of-House Spaces PAY The total compensation for this position will be between $24.00 - $38.00 per hour. We pay an industry-leading base wage of $15 / hour plus tips. Tips are based on your level of hospitality, shifts worked, and how busy we are - the busier, the better!
WORK SCHEDULE
This position can be part-time or full-time, with a flexible schedule designed around the demands of the restaurant. This position will regularly work the busiest shifts of the week, based on daily forecasted sales and special events; typically weekends. Evening shifts are most common, with occasional morning and midday shifts available. WILL YOU FIT IN HERE? Our team has been built - brick by brick - on shared core values. And no, they’re not just bullsh*t words slapped on a wall - they’re who we are at our core - and they’re non-negotiables for working here. You’ll feel super *comfy* and right at home if these words describe you: » You Come With Batteries Included You’re a high-energy self-starter who jumps into action, and doesn’t need hand-holding to get things done. » You’re Scrappy You’re a resourceful problem-solver who makes things happen; if there’s no door, you get in through a window. » You Take Your Work Seriously You take pride in your work, big and small, and you have a natural reflex to do things the *right* way. » But, You Don’t Take Yourself Too Seriously You’re a positive team player who owns up to your mistakes, is open to feedback, and is humble about your wins. And if these words *don’t* describe you? You’ll be decidedly *uncomfy* here. So, fair warning - If you’re a cranky a** problem-bringer who’s cool being super-mid at your job and needs constant hand holding… may we suggest… working literally anywhere else?
