Accomplishments
During my time as General Manager at the Epic Brands restaurant, I brought the store from a low position on the operational scorecard to #1. I earned the respect of my from my employees and our corporate team above me over the 2.5 years I managed that restaurant. We had low turn over rate because I made sure my employees were well taken care of and made it into a place people wanted to come work. We gained many regulars who came in not only for the atmosphere and food, but for the service and hospitality my team and myself provided. My location was often #1 in sales out of the 18 locations.
