Pros

-Wide range of customers -On first or third shift you will have a fairly steady stream of customers -Most of the people you work with are nice, down-to-earth individuals.

Cons

In our area... -As a server working second shift you DON'T MAKE MINIMUM WAGE. When you are hired, you are informed that you will be compensated if your expected tips add up to less than minimum wage, but this is Not the case and trying to get the issue resolved is like pulling teeth. -Hours where there is not a single customer in the store. -If the previous shift leaves their side work unfinished (specifically dishes) you have to get that done before you can get started with your own work for the day and it can seriously put you behind.

Pros

The mix of customers is very eclectic. It's kind of a more relaxed place to work. The work is generally fun.

Cons

If you work third (night) shift, you may not make minimum wage because there aren't enough customers. Trying to get management to compensate for the lack of minimum wage is like pulling hen's teeth. They will lie to you and do what ever will benefit them.
