For singles, New Year’s Eve can be a stressful time. Everyone is paired up to watch the countdown (or going to one of those popular group toddler parties if they have kids). Sure, there are some parties especially for singles but those can be a little intense.
One of my female buddies has the answer.
She works it.
You see, every restaurant, hotel, party room, spare nook, in the city is booked. That means the management needs staff, more staff than they regularly hire. This staff is difficult to find (lots of competition) so the wages are usually higher.
Oh, and management is more willing to overlook lack of experience. They’ll train for that special night. The people they train, they are more likely to call back in the future.
There is even more upside. Many of the other worker bees are single (a good mixing opportunity). Oh, and she often meets the celebs entertaining the crowds.
Plus management treats the staff especially well that day. She’s had free meals before her one day only gig.
How to find these opps? The classifieds, Craig’s List or simply ask a venue you’re interested in working if they’re hiring.
