The best jobs I ever had were working in restaurants. I pretty much did it all as a young adult. I bussed, washed dished, waited tables, worked the grill and did food prep. Boisterous atmosphere. All the food you can eat (and I ate jumbo shrimp by the pound). Loud-mouthed cooks screaming obscenities just like you see on the TV.

I'd still be doing that kind of work today if it paid well. But it doesn't. Unless you are an owner or the head chef.

If I ever got divorced, I would open a restaurant. I would work/live there pretty much 24/7 because that is what it takes to run a restaurant. You do not have much of a life on the outside. It's the restaurant all the time. I'd also spend a lot of time at the bar and drink some of my profits.

Be careful there, Sam. Rule no. 1 of the Bar business is: Don't ever get drunk in your own bar.
