I couldn't be bothered to check for the correct spelling, and don't know any similar sounding words, so sioux will do for me ! :D

it's a bit of a change in carear option,

usually the preferable applicant's show they are:
- good under pressure, as basically everything you cook has a short deadline for completion (so to speak).
- organised, to cope with multiple orders at once, keep track of the orders, starters / mains etc....
- good communication skills, as you need to know at all times what's going on.
- want to work, the hours are often unsociable, often working late, sometimes covering shifts, and depending on the bar sometimes your hours will change weekly.

and if you get the job - stock up on burn cream, after your first week your hands / arms will be red with burns, several popped blisters and a blue plaster on at least one finger :laugh
- though you will soon get used to the heat, and be able to grap your watch out of the deep fat fryer.

- always keep deoderant with you, the smell of sweat and greese isn't that appeling.

- always say yes chef after the head chef talks to you - some chefs think there army generals.

it's a fun job,
