Very long stressful shifts, couldnt even get a large glass to drink out of while slaving over the wok. Could never take food home. Lied to very often. Low pay for the work. Very dirty. Company never bought new equipment. I had to usea knife that so very old and had a bow in it and manager refused to buy a new one. DO NOT WORK HERE.
