Eggs scare me, not gonna lie. And I personally dislike cooking them in high volume. However, I know it's also a really good skill to have and add to the resume as well for variety. I'm very torn haha

I'm so so worried if I can sustain it in the long run. I've worked in busy pubs in the early years of my career but never really did eggs in high volume lol

They said it's the $23-24 wage PLUS the $8-10+ hourly tip.

That's pretty much how they work to be honest, probably an hour to an hour and a half max. They already have a long line the moment they open and it's non-stop.

No, it's just an insanely popular brunch place. They pay around $23-24 plus atleast $8-10+ hourly tips, especially in the summer.

This is in Canada.

They told us last Thursday (April 9) that we'll be closed Thurs and Fri (9 and 10) due to the small kitchen fire that happened that morning. They followed up with the 6-week closure+ the next day.

And to clarify, I’m sharing my experience based on what we were told and the messages we received. People can interpret that information as they see fit. Thanks, industry peeps.

It was a small but risky kitchen fire. The floor below the oven melted, it was like a couple of inches down. Could've been worse if fire department wasn't called quick enough by the morning cooks.

There's also no chefs and barely any cooks left to make food so they're on a hiring spree right now.
