Yea those awesome salads? They came right out of a plastic pre mixed salad bag, and you customers got to pay a nice little markup....wow I do not miss that job.

Sadly this is the norm in the restaurant industry. I know I'm painting with a bit of a broad brush here, but there's usually a reason why the people running these places are in the restaurant industry. They don't have business degrees, let's just put it that way.
If you can find a good restaurant with good management that treats its staff with respect and operates like a real business, it can be a very rewarding job.
