I worked in Applebee's for 3 days because I have worked at the barn for four so I was working 7 days a week when I first got hired I was only scheduled during the day I quickly became the best server of the daytime shift at the same time my car started having problems and it definitely was not getting me to Cocoa when we lived in Melbourne so I took a while break from the barn and just focused on Applebee's cuz it was in walking distance. Applebee's offered me way more hours and the night time shift and I immediately took it I worked from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 in the morning getting an hour to an hour and a half break in the middle where I could walk home and nap or eat or whatever I had quickly took on way more responsibility than any of the other employees I served and I did to go and the patio which was pretty much unheard of I did this 6 days a week. Then the bartender quit and they needed someone to work the bar but had nobody so I was offered the job I had to teach myself everything I became the head bartender and I had so many regulars they would say they would leave if I wasn't there server so I had great customer service. I trained all new hires for serving positions bartending positions and host. Clean the bar immaculate immaculately which hadn't been done in over 4 years I then was responsible for keeping track of the bar inventory and the server inventory so of course I made documents too fill out so I can keep track of everything much easier I also insured that the other employees did all of their side work and did it correctly they would try to sneak out would not doing hardly anything so I put an end to that I handled large cash on me every shift and did large amounts one closing six nights a week at the bar I trained well over 15 people and other than being forced not to work because of covid lockdown I never called out or missed work not one night I made, filled out and managed all nightly reports for each server, had an inventory log ,an accident report ,and customer problems and or complaints.
