I worked for many years in restaurants with very short stents in retail in between. I learned how to work fast, how to work smart, and how to look like I was working hard. Flexable hours, great/sucky co-workers, and cool bosses made it some of the best jobs I worked at. I had fun, learned how to cook good food, and roll a good joint.
I also became very bitter and developed a hatred for people. I saw people at their worse. Want to see an asshole become a bigger asshole? Let them bitch at a server when something goes wrong. I saw people act like assholes just because they could. No amount of good tippers could make up for the overwhelming amount sucky people that eat out in restaurants.
Sometimes I miss cooking a in a kitchen, but every time I open the oven and get that blast of overheated air in my face, I miss it a little less.
Personally, I think everyone should work in service industry job at least once in their life. Like a lot of the European countries do with military service.
"You are 18 now, grab a scrub brush and start washing dishes. See you in a year."
I bet money people would tip a lot differently.
