I think I see your real problem. If you made the burgers at home they would have been cold by the time you got them to the restaurant. Nobody likes a cold hamburger, so you would have been getting negative word of mouth reviews.

If it's a good location then that probably tells you that the landlord is scummy and won't play a fair financial game, so seasoned restaurateurs avoid the space.

If you've owned restaurants before you'll know there are lots of terms to negotiate with a new landlord on your lease which are extremely necessary for you to get a good head start at success, but they don't often look very good to a landlord. It's a kind of delayed gratification thing. Terms like a rent-free period while the restaurant is being built, shared liability, terms regarding anchor tenants if it's in a strip or shared space, etc. I'd be willing to bet money that either the landlord doesn't care enough to find a good business person for the space, or he's greedy and would rather take a full price short term lease than a longer term investment which might pay off with percent of sales as rent when the restaurant gets in the black (another negotiable term)

Basically landlording for commercial spaces is exponentially more difficult than doing the same for residential buildings and I'm sure he's not got a clue what he's doing.

It's true. I'm on gibs. The cashiers never say hi, politicians never mention people like me, how it's a prison. People think it's 24/7 vacation. But when the weather's shitty, your variation in food limited, and with everyone looking down on you, and people not respecting your time or limited money, it not fun.

I just hope in a few months i'll find some work and never look back.

We got a BJ's Brewhouse in my town years ago. First of all, don't name a restaurant BJs unless you've glory hole-accessible stalls in the mens' room. Second of all, took one look at the menu. You are not doing Cajun-Creole, Italian, south-west "Mexican", middle-America steaks and burgers, and pub grub appetizers equally well. Fuck right off. We have local brewpubs, thanks, and I don't even drink much beer.

The Clown Pepe forced meme is discord trannies trying to kill pepe via falseflag by making him cringe

Look at how many clown variants of pepe as opposed to abstract or original ones grown on this board during the election cycle of 2015-2016. They already outnumber them 2:1, its either because of reddit or its because of discord trannies. The influx of memes can be attributed to either source, believe me anyone on this board for longer than 2-4 years is a meme economist, this meme is already stale due to inflation. Inflation as a status in context memes is synonmous with being forced with an agenda contrary to the boards allegiance to Truth, meaning its clearly the left using it as a meme, since they forced it and killed it in such a short amount of time.
