They sell cotton gloves at Target in the beauty section next to all the poofs, loofahs, and other bath fooferah. They'll probably say something about a manicure on the package.
Having worked in food service, my biggest recommendation is to moisturize every time you are not handling food (every time you have a break), use a water-resistant lotion on your hands--Vaseline makes a really good one--to mitigate damage. The lotion itself will wash off, but it will leave a barrier behind to protect your skin from further damage.
You can also step up the lotion/glove combo by slathering your hands in bag balm and putting them in the gloves for a while, then covering them in lotion/glove combo for bedtime. Using something like bag balm will also increase your skin's resistance to water, so apply some before work.
