I love cracker barrel, i happen to work at the largest producing cracker barrel in the u.s and would'nt change a thing. It is SPOTLESS clean in the back, the cooks wear gloves, hairnets, facial hair nets, aprons ect.. all you can see are their eyes! There are sinks everywhere, everyone washes their hands constantly. we do not get fired for eating biscuits, for heavensakes!!! We NEVER touch food, lemons ect.. with bare hands, gloves only. We are required to have clean, fresh, ironed clothes, hair in buns, no nail polish but who cares? i wounld'nt want a dirty person serving me food either! The food is great! And it happenes to be cooked in one of the cleanest kitchens that i've ever seen, every night there entire place gets hosed down and scrubbed for hours. the employees are treated great, we get half priced meals on the clock, and 20% off for up to 6 people all other times including things from the gift shop, even if the are on sale already, we get insurance, paided vacations, and flexible schedules and every one gets christmas bonuses threre's even scholarships that are awarded. we have more 4 star workers in our store than ive ever seen, because we love it. i love my managers too thay are friendly and easy to talk to. They encourage employees to advance and become managers and do everything that they can to help them acheive those goals. we get constant praise for a job well done, and i love it. i have so many regular customers and compliments everynight, and i know that im good at want i do, my tips prove that! where else can you work a simple job and pull in $120-$150, not including your check, in 8 hours??? For all those people who are complaining, you have obvliously never walked into my store and you don't know what good food is suppose to taste like.
