Well this is bittersweet....

[Bier Meister 1,513]

I am no longer with the hotel in Napa. I have been there for a little more than 3 1/2 years with the past 2+ being pretty brutal. Decent last paycheck (60 pto hours), plus a little severance. Not looking forward to the search, but know i had to leave and will be better off in the future. I will be nice not to have to think about them again (many after hours calls and emails).

 

[tanatastic 2,061]

Best of luck in future endeavors.

[Filthy Fernadez 2,696]

Good luck.

 

FYI Fox News is looking for a new show.

I think with your chef skills you should start a food truck that serves grilled cheese. They are cheap to produce and would be pure profit.

[Bier Meister 1,513]

Many feelers are out. A few years back I created a personal chef business which i can always fall back on. Toughest part of F&B are the hours with a family. trying to find a 9-5. may get into food or beverage sales

[cyclone24 1,814]

God dammit that sucks.

 

 

 

 

 

That means youll be here more. Fock.

Good luck. You'll do well. Its tourist season.

Sorry bro.. you'll find something man.

i am actually pretty happy. it was a mutual parting of ways. while i am very good at maintaining my professionalism, i am certain that my displeasure may have cracked through the facade now and then.

[RaiderHaters Revenge 3,579]

Get in on the cooking with cannabis here in cali. A lot of winery's are going to be able to expand very soon and the industry is going nowhere but up

On a serious note, good luck.

food trucks are still very popular, and there was a little trend for grilled cheese restaurants. i love good sammiches and could put together some nice GC.

What is you go to brand of season salt?

I always thought a baked potato truck would do well. Has the "healthy" feel, with lots of tasty toppings if one chooses. Have the toppings in crocks and potatoes baked on site with the smell pumping. I though this would do wel, at fairs and festivals too.

I think that could work in cooler climates.

 

 

Salt- usually Morton's or crystal kosher salt. Every once in a while I will use a pink, black or grey to finish a steak

It was a reference to a GiantsFan business idea... anyway, sorry to hear that your job got you to a place where you are fine being let go. I've been there; it sucks and yet is liberating. Good luck!

Do you have a LinkedIn account? If not create one. Invite me and everyone you've ever met. The power of LinkedIn is in the second level contact; not who you know, but who your contacts know. I know the owner of a winery up there for instance, at least he owned it a few years ago.

[Patriotsfatboy1 1,432]

Is there an echo in here?

Best of luck man, you're one of the good ones.

 

You'll land on your feet and be better off.

Any chance you'll open your own joint?

i think about it, but know what goes into it. once we get our daughter into college, we might find a tropical spot and open a tiki bar

missed the GF reference. i guess i could do a ginos pizza roll truck. i went in to discuss my departure and we agreed on final day. I have not been happy there for a while. In my exit interview I offered advice regarding what to expect from the position. I am in a good place, just need to figure our what is next.

[Bier Meister 1,513]

Yesterday I was contacted by a colleague from my previous hotel who just was hired at another resort. They are looking for a F&B Purchaser to build a department. This one has me more excited than my previous....smaller, boutique hotel with a bigger name. Salary would be the equivalent of a 30% raise . Commute doubled from 30 to 55 min.

 

 

Just had another informal phone interview with their F&B Director. They are comfortable with the salary I was asking for. I have an interview on Monday with HR, F&B Director, Exec Chef, and GM. I am pretty excited about this....
