What should I do?? Careers?

Question

I just had an interview at a new restraunt that is opening up, they advertised they had all positions open , servers, bussers, cooks, dishwashers, others...

anywase the interview went well and they just called back and left a message stating that they want to talk more with me about the dishwasher job.

I told them at my interveiw about my many years of successful customer service and sales experince in which i think would be best suited for me to be a busser or a server, cause atleast there you get tips!!!

I'm 29 years old with an associates degree. what should i do??

besides, unless it pays good i'm hoping for something better than washing dishes.

Answer 1

If your 29 and your applying for dishwashing jobs and you have an associates degree then you've got issues...maybe you should shoot a lil higher,,, waitress perhaps,,,

Answer 2

tell them thanks but no thanks........

i'd be frustrated too if they offfered me this.......

it's not that any job is beneath you.....

it's that your education, training, skills and maturity won't be be utilized for them as a company or for your own personal enrichment and growth........

some kid that was in our little league program went to work for Outback in Central Florida, now he runs the franchise in his home town, yes he is 36 now and his dad says he makes $200K +

Answer 3

Geez.  Is that how bad our economy has gotten?  You can get a position washing dishes with an Associates Degree.  Maybe they'd promote you up from that position after a while.

Answer 4

I'd hold out.... Possibly express 'thanks' but that you are looking for a server type position where you can use your skills.  If they have any of those open up please call you (and maybe they will talk to you now).you can probably do better!  However, if you really need money, I'd change my answer to take it and continue to look for something better.
