Pros
You can move up from server to bartender fairly easily. If you are well-liked by the customers you serve, tips can be pretty good. Base pay for bartenders is $4.50/hour, unfortunately, but tips can increase wage to around $15-$23/hour. You can work the days and shifts you prefer if you can convince managers to agree. You may be able to form some friendships.
Kontras
There is a lot of drama in the restaurant industry, in general, and there is no effort to combat that here. Some workers may be very immature, lazy, or hard to work with. Tips are not guaranteed. Tips vary depending on how well you are liked by the customers you serve, which customers you get (luck), how busy the restaurant is (which varies daily and monthly), and how many customers you personally get (your individual sales). Must share tips with hosts and bussers, which totals 3% of your total sales, no matter their performance. Sundays are the lowest tipping days. Jan-Feb are the slowest months. High stress environment. Consistently understaffed. No guarantee of time off for vacations. No paid time off. No benefits. Highly political environment with favoritism. You could make more per hour by working at other restaurants or bars in higher-income areas, such as West Plano or North Dallas.
