"Here’s a list of reasons why I will never work for a family-owned restaurant ever again and I will only work in chain restaurants," she says in the video above.
"Number one, chain restaurants know that this is a serving job and not your f**king career so they don’t give a f**k as long as you show up, do your job, and leave.
"That’s all you gotta do. It’s really not hard, right?

"In a family-owned restaurant, you are their slave, not their employee.
