Fuck, I hope things start looking up. I usually subsist off of coffee and green tea until I get to work, then eat all my meals for the day there. I actually love cooking, and I hate that food service makes me not want to cook at home anymore.

Best of luck making your way out of job hell - do you live in a city?

Is serving good money where you live ? I know some places in American have painfully low hourly wages for servers so the tips are less great but when it's good, it's really good and honestly not as soul crushing as people think. Grocery store cashiers have it way worse in the soul crushing department and they make good old minimum wage.

A girl I know earns more $50-100 per hour serving drinks at the Cinebarre. You can make bank at the right spot as a server.
