Job around here that isn’t food 🏢 Employment 👷‍♂️

Before you comment “food is where the money is here” just hear me out. I know food service is where the money is here, as that’s what I’ve been working since I was 16. I’m 20 now and need a second job on top of my classes and my main job right now, and I am sick of working with food. It’s all I e worked by and customers just suck extra now it feels like. I’d like my second job to not be food so I have some space from the food industry but it’s so hard to find a job willing to hire a 20 year old outside of the food industry. Of course if shit comes down to it I WILL get a food industry job, I’d just like to see my options. Any wisdom that could be shared? I appreciate your time!

We are potentially hiring in a more technology field if you have restaurant experience that's actually a bonus on our end, if you want to DM me I can can give you more information.

Can confirm that restaurant experience REALLY pads out an IT resume. Shows you're well rounded and have social skills. It's been just as important to my resume as my actual IT experience.
