i have seven years in the industry, 2 of which were at a family run pizza shop when i was still in high school. For the past five years, i've worked at an american bistro in a small town. i started as a dishwasher, moved up to prep, then to salad, or garde manger, and eventually was given saute station, where i have been for almost 3 years now. additionally, i was recently given the responsibility to make desserts. i unlock the restaurant around 9 to make said desserts and begin some prep tasks, continue prep with the sous chef from about noon until service starts at four, then work my station until we start the closing procedures, around 9 or so.
