How's work?
Think about what you did to become employed in the food industry. Looking back, perhaps you completed an application or submitted a resume and then interviewed, received an offer and finally, started your job. Ahh...the good old days. Now, it's a couple or more years into your food gig, job career or vocation--whatever you call it. And, you want to develop your skills, work towards a promotion and earn more money. However, you don't have the time and resources or anyone to turn with DIY career and job questions.
