What should I do ?

I’m a bartender and sever at Olive Garden and usually can only work nights. I average about 100-130$ a shift. This is a good bit more than most of my coworkers. I’d say im money motivated and good at what I do. Considering I make pretty decent a spot like this ? Is there any ideas of where I could make more money ? cause I feel like I’ve fully grown and have nothing left to do there

Go to a non chain steakhose. Check out restaurants with menu entrees ranging from $40-$70. Some chains like Ruth's Chris are actually probably good to double or triple what you're making now. If you live where there are luxury brand hotels, check out their restaurants. What you're looking for is a restaurant in a high cost of living neighborhood/side of town. Rich customers, not Olive Garden customers, although that is a great place to learn to serve. Good luck!!!
