from the year 2000 to the year 2010. I began as a server and worked my way up to assistant manager within a couple of years. I also was a new store team member and traveled the Southeast for the company, training new employees at new store opens.
I also worked for a few other restaurants in our area and in Auburn, Alabama while at college.
I am hoping to get back into the restaurant business as this was my 1st passion when I began working.
