Good morning everybody! I’m filling in at a different The Joint in Canton with a different owner today. It takes 20 minutes off my commute there and back. Maybe getting my foot in the door :thinking-face:.
Good luck!

Yes and no, I contacted the owner in July to see if he had a full time position available since it is closer. He said he was fully staffed but if I was interested in filling in he would pay me well. At the beginning of the week I contacted him and said I could do some filling in. I figured he’d get to meet me face to face and see how I work. I thought when a full time position became available I would be the first he thought of. We’ll see, I would love to shave some time off my over 2 hour commute especially on week days when I’m working 9 hours.
