Busy sometimes not well organized
Waitress (Former Employee), East Lansing, MI –
Pros: fun atmosphere
Cons: bad owner, hot workplace
I enjoyed working as a waitress and getting to be around different types of people. Most of the other workers were enjoyable and friendly, yet the owner wasn't the best. Often the AC would not be on because he could not afford it and customers would leave. Towards the end of my time working there, if a worker waited to cash a check it would often bounce – more...  due to not enough funds in the businesses account. – less

It was so fun. I like to work as a team.
Counter Service (Former Employee), Buena Park, CA –
When I worked at Johnny Rockets, it was first experience for my new job in my life. I learned many new things. For example, many guests came to the restaurant and I must greeting to them. My job position was Fountain Drinking Runners (FD) which is I have to making many ice cream shaking to provide for many customers as much as I can. My co-workers was – more...  so excellent and they are friendly. They always worked with me because we are team members. The hardest part of the job is to communicate with guests because I am a deaf and hard of hearing. The truth is that I am looking for many new jobs and I can not find a new one. That was hardest part of the job. I like to work as a team which makes me to have my own family. – less

Stressful and busy workplace.
Waitress/Server (Former Employee), Daytona Beach, FL –
Pros: tips
Cons: short break, stressful workplace, mean customers.
A typical day at work here consists of restocking tables if not already done, taking orders and waiting tables, putting orders into computer for cooks, drop your fries/wings/chicken tenders, taking food to customer, bust table, dancing, restock and clean restaurant after shift. I learned how to wait/bust tables, how to use point of sale stations; also – more...  how a waitstaff works. The hardest part of the day was waiting on 5 different tables at a time. The most enjoyable part of the day was at the dancing and the end of the shift. – less

Fun atmosphere at an old school diner.
Server/ Food and Drink Runner (Former Employee), Lansing, Michigan –
Pros: free meals, dancing every 30 minutes, so-so tips.
Cons: closed down without notice.
Working at a place where you can dance for the customers was a great experience. The owner was not up to par at all, but the managers were some of the best around.

Good Money, Crooked Workplace
Server (Former Employee), Pacific Place –
Pros: good tip money, (approximately $20/hr if you're a good server)
Cons: no health care, crooked company, no job security, cheesy uniform and dancing
You can make a lot in tips as a Server at Johnny Rocket's, as long as whomever supervises you doesn't send you home early, steal your tables, or give you all the worst shifts. You are expected to dance for customers, work your butt off, and show up for shifts regardless of whether you are available or how much notice you are given about your schedule. – more...  They make you sign something that says you will not unionize before they hire you. Know that this is not legally binding; it goes against Labor Law. The kitchen staff is paid dismally and treated with disrespect, and while your in-store managers and supervisors are likely nice people, the regional corporate managers would throw you under a train to increase their bottom line by a couple of dollars. Proceed with caution, keep your nose clean, and trust no one. – less
