Throwing Ourselves On The Grenade of Bad Food to Save You
According to the Oregon.gov website, the food services and drinking places industry are being hit hard during this economic downturn.
The food services and drinking places industry shed 3,000 jobs in October and is down 1,900 in the past 12 months. The weakness in consumer spending seems to be hitting full-service restaurants hard, with employment down 1,300 jobs since October 2007.
"I have a wide-range of food experience - working in the restaurant industry on both sides of the house, later in the wine industry, and finally traveling/tasting my way around the world. Whether you agree or disagree, you can always count on my unbiased opinion. I don't take free meals, and the restaurants don't know when, or if, I am coming."
yeah, i could have told you that from my lack of a paycheck and responses to sent resumes over the last few months. it’s brutal out there.
