What does the day look like?
You work evenings, weekends and public holidays — split shifts are common in hotels. Your shift means setting and clearing tables, greeting guests, handing menus, advising on food and drink, taking orders and sending them to the kitchen or bar through a POS system (Micros, Toast, Square, Lightspeed — whichever the employer uses), serving food and drinks, handling bills and payments (cash, card terminals), restocking stations and rolling silverware. In a full-service restaurant, roughly 55–65% of the shift is guest-facing service, 25–35% is sidework (stocking, polishing, resetting tables), and 10–15% is payment, admin and coordination with the kitchen. On cruise ships the service sequence is the same: English is the working language, contracts typically run 4–8 months onboard with a shared cabin.
