  • Communicate well with others and believe in the importance of teamwork
  • Clear, clean, sanitize & reset tables in under 3 minutes
  • Update and communicate to Hosts & Servers when tables are available for seating
  • Perform other duties such as light housekeeping, rolling silverware, restroom cleanliness, etc.
