Everyone should work food service and retail at least once in their lives. It would give perspective to, and teach respect for, what those workers have to endure.

fuck the draft, make everyone spend a year or two in the service industry after high school

From the bottom up. No skipping washing dishes, cleaning out the walk-in cooler, scraping grills, cleaning fryers… Yeah, front of house has its own difficulties, but it’s a lot easier than the grunt work in the back.

I don't think we need to compare. Both suck, and both teach valuable life skills. Back of house how terrible you can be treated by corporate overlords and management with some of the worst jobs. Front of house teaches you how terrible you can be treated by the general public. I have both scars on my hands from molten grease and I've been screamed at by old ladies because corporate raised the senior coffee price from 49 to 53 cents. Both show you how awful different things can be.

Agreed. I wasn’t trying to suggest otherwise, just that the suggestion was customer-facing was the only difficult side of the service industry and we need to see all of it.
