Whose business lunch is it anyway?

Most restaurant workers have worked lunches. We've each served countless customers conducting business while eating lunch. In my early years, business lunch customers seemed to be more of an inconvenience than an opportunity. It was difficult to offer service when they constantly talked.

One day, a coworker was waiting on two airline pilots. They were discussing the shortage of good flight attendants. My friend, the waitress, asked what it would take to try and become a flight attendant. A few weeks later, she was leaving to begin her training with a well known regional airline.

Being a flight attendant may or may not be your dream job. The point is, that your next job, career, business opportunity, etc. may be right in front of you ordering the Grilled Salmon.

Restaurant employment (or any customer service job) allows us the opportunity to serve hundreds or thousands of customers a year. Each one of these customers is a potential employer, business partner, reference, etc. Keep your eyes and ears open for opportunity. When the opportunity presents itself to have a discussion with a customer about their line of work, listen and learn. Find a way to let them know that you're open to new possibilities for employment.

Almost every customer you provide service to has a job or career. Each of these people may know of an opening within their company or be looking to hire someone themselves. Because you've provided exceptional service to them, they may love to talk more with you about it. If a customer gives you a lead on a job, make sure to ask if you can use them as a reference.

Many of your customers are also meeting and networking with others during lunch and dinner. Much like you probably work as a team in your job, these people exhibit the skills of teamwork. Begin to pay attention to the business cards being exchanged during these meetings. If a customer offers you a business card for any reason, I recommend sitting down that day and writing a card to let them know you appreciate their patronage and, in addition, what your aspirations are. You could receive a call or email from them letting you know they'd like to refer you to someone or talk more about a possible opportunity with them.
