Pros

Friendly, lively, atmosphere. Get to make a quality product and serve up smiles. No specific cleaning assignments allocated or written down for you to complete.

Cons

It can get busy as heck at times. I mean busy. To the point where you spend you're whole 8 hr shift in high octane mode. It's not worth it when you're getting paid minimum wage.
