I was right there in your shoes....criminal justice major and all.
I worked as a waiter...moved up to trainer, headwaiter, then bartender and eventually manager for Pappasitos Restaurant. If you want flexible hours ( for the most part), get to have fun, and make good money, that is the type of job for you.
I'll tell you this. The type of person you are will reflect in how much money you make. If you want the cash and are willing to work your butt off, there's ton's o' cash to be made in the restaurant biz. Before you go grab a job anywhere, remember...the higher priced restaurants will make you more money....but also require more from you. In other words, DON'T slack off working at a great steak restaurant where you could easily be making $150 to $200 a night vs. working (and no offense) at (better yet, I'll leave names out) that restaurant.
Work somewhere with a fun atmosphere. You'll be there EVERY DAY. I did it for 6 years. It was good to me and I made great cash. But, it was to get me through school. If you want it, again, you'll go for it. But, it'll take some work. Go find that restaurant that goes on a wait every night, check out the type of people that go there, the menu prices, and work it from there....I think you know what I mean!
Oh, and thread moved to more proper location...off topic discussions...
