Their responsibilities typically include taking customer orders, operating cash registers, preparing food items, assembling orders, and maintaining cleanliness in the dining and kitchen areas.

Your duties and responsibilities in fast food or take out restaurants depend on the type of position you have. A cook works to prepare the food according to restaurant recipes and guidelines. Counter staff interacts with customers and takes each customer’s order and payment. Managers oversee operations during a shift or for the entire store.
