It'll be at Kyo Chon (pronounced like Kee-yo Chun, not Kai-yo). It's that Korean chicken place, I'm not sure if they're global or state-wide, but they're pretty popular back home.

I have NEVER worked at a restaurant or serving. My only job was at Macy's as a Sales Associate and some interning for politics. My Korean isn't really strong either, but I can have conversations and I don't have that silly Americanized accent when Americans try to speak Korean.

Frankly I don't have much choice, all the other places either really suck or require some experience.

The hardest part may be that I don't understand advanced Korean words.

But wish me luck! This might mean I won't be on PL much anymore. I'm going to try to take as many hours as possible. Need to support my family above all.

I spoke in my most professional Korean pronunciation possible. A quirk I picked up when taking some acting lessons. :) But, no celebrating until I get hired!

If there's one thing I learned about miscommunications usually a smile and a head nod fixes everything. ((or at least it seemed like it)) go buy a Korean pocket dictionary to keep on you while at work lol and the number one rule in food business: don't forget to hock one if they give u back sass ;)
