If you're career is food or nutrition related could you please answer these questions?

I am a recently-got-smart-and-got-the-hell-out-of-there restaurant manager

1. What type of education do you need?

Really you just need people skills, some basic math knowledge, and common sense----I have 4 years of college though (Truthfully, it helps if you don't sound like an idiot when talking to customers.)

2.What type of training do you need?

Mostly on-the-job; Some courses in sexual harassment law and discrimination law (age, sex, race, etc.); and certification from the National Restaurant Association for completing the ServSafe program, designed to prevent/lessen outbreaks of foodborne illness

3.What is the salary range?

Well, I know some people who do it for 20000 (no way) and the highest I know of around here is 52000. Mine fell toward the higher end but wasn't the highest, by far. I was offered a job once to start making 32000 as a trainee and would be making 50000 by the end of the first year, but I was young and dumb and let my district manager give me the loyalty talk and actually believe him (dumb dumb dumb). So you can make a LOT more depending on the area of the country.

4. What kind of hours do you work?

All over the place. Some days I worked 22 hours. Some I worked 10. I would go in on my days off to fix computer problems or to go to Wal-Mart to buy things that had gotten broken or that we had run out of. I basically lived there a lot of the time.

5.How do you like your job?

Most days I loved it--really. I met a variety of people and it was just a thrill to be so busy you barely had time to think---but somehow it all came together and when it was all said and done we could take a look around and say "WE did this--and it wasn't even a bad night!!!"

But then we just got the wrong combination of people in there--gossip mongers and back-stabbers. I was burnt out; my boss was burnt out; her boss was burnt out. I started dreading it. When you wish someone would hit your car on the way to work (every day), you know it's time to leave. So I did.

6.What future trends do you see that will affect your job in the future?

Right now everyone is focused on the economy. I quit a few days after Mother's Day, and we had been watching sales plummet (something else that didn't help my mental state) for well over a month at that time. From what I hear they aren't getting any better. If people have to choose between paying bills and going out to eat, bills will come first every time. Once the economy bounces back, though, everything should be right with the food service world again.

6.What future trends do you see that will affect your job in the future?

My parents, they don't agree with my future job, well, the job i want, if you want a job in relation to cooking, you gotta have support.

1) there is no one solution to finding what education you need.

2) just go up in the same job to get to higher spots. this looks good to other businesses

3) 1800 to 40000 per year

4) 40 a week

5) its ok

6) the longer in position the better

here's a proverb to go by:

work hard, and treat the business like your own. but don't be perfect. if you are perfect, you will be irreplaceable, and no one will think of promoting you
