Sushi Restaurant Job
    #2121793 - 11/19/03 02:24 AM (20 years, 4 months ago)

So i pulled together a killer resume and convincing coverletter, and a japanese restaurant has called. Tommorow they want me to help them change locations, and if the 2 guys im moving with like me, ill get trained in the kitchen. She said she'd write me a $40 cheque for a couple hours labor, and made some slips in speech that made it sound as if i got the job upon evaluation pretty much. ie. saying "we'll add the labor to your first cheque" rather than saying she would give me a cheque *she corrected herself* and whatever.

Im confident, so i hope i get it. Any tips?

Awesome PDU!!!

I LOVE sushi with all of my heart! It's my favorite food. Now I HAVE to come visit you so you can make me some Sushi... :wink:

I don't have to many tips for you because I've never worked in a sushi bar myself, but what I can tell you is... always make the sushi spicier...

:smile:  Good luck with the job!

heh, Im off in 20 minute's to go.

A sushi maker is a damn good job for someone like me, and I remain confident. Its kind of an eccentric job for an eccentric guy, and only 2 japanese guys work there, hopefully lots of cute asian girls. :laugh:

I guess ill just go in and be friendly and lift shit. Hopefully ill be reporting good news soon.

That sounds pretty damn cool PDU.  My advice:  get good.  If you get good enough to do hibachi (sp?) or, if you get REALLY good, fugu (blowfish), you can pretty much always find a job in any decen't-sized city.  Here's hoping everything goes well for you, you seem like a really cool guy from what I've read here. :tongue2:

Woohoo! Looks like i got it, all fairly young japanese people and super nice! They wont be opening their new location until almost christmas, but ive gotta help them set up their new grocer and sushi bar, and when they open ill start training.

Im stoked, although ill be working at like ... 4am.

Anyways, perfect job for me, Sushi cook just sounds so much better than "mcdonalds employee".

++ The store has tons of awesome healthy food, ill be hittin that shit up, and all the sushi i can ever eat. They loaded me up with 4 trays today - this place makes all the sushi for the town.

Thanks for all the support guys.

sounds good, but im kinda skeptical of a place that would just sort of hire someone to make sushi.. good sushi chefs train for years to make good sushi, but goddamn, when its good, its GOOD.

edit: not mean to dampen your spirits or anything like that, nice job, id love to get that

I know a guy worked in a Sushi bar. He said for over a year they wouldn't let him do anything but cook rice. Then he had to practice making the rice balls for months. Then they let him get into making the rolls, then finally the sashimi and nagiri sushi. But he also said his restaurant was hardcore traditional Japanese -- super finicky -- and that he felt he could have compressed the whole thing into less than a year and a half.

But he's also a pretty cocky guy so maybe he was just bragging.

Well if it were up to me and they made me cook rice balls for a year, I may just put up with it.

I mean, I'd suffer through rice ball hell to be able to be trained in the art of sushi...

Ahhh....sushi....

(Best of luck PDU :thumbup: )

Thing is, my trainer is about a 28 year old super geek, and i dont think im going to be able to put up with him. I think he's been too sheltered to *get* real conversation/humour/life.
