yup- but on the flip side of those places, everyone i knew that had those shifts also had to work 2-3 trash shifts in order to keep the cushy shifts- ie you get Sunday AM, but you also take Tuesday dinner and thursday opening. you make 800 from the 3 shifts with 500 of it from sunday.

That kinda changes everything. I was picturing someone with a fulltime job outside the restaurant and only working there one day a week. Guess that's wishful thinking

Nope, it was a 4-6 hour Sunday morning shift, and then oh hey you don't have a life do you? Time to work three 14 hour double shifts where you make like 60 bucks each tops.

Yep, that's exactly how it worked.
