Sarasota Job Opportunities
Hi all, I am looking at getting some career guidance/suggestions and thought this might be a long shot. I am a 31 year old male living in Sarasota who is sick of the restaurant industry and needing to think about long term career options. My past experience is restaurant work, mainly in management roles, with a focus on the bar. Below is a list I compiled of my skills and desires. I plugged these items into ChatGPT and the pictures attached are the fine-tuned responses it gave me. So what I am asking from you all is:
A: Are there any recommendations you would give based upon my list?
B: Are you aware of any particular companies in the Sarasota area that are hiring that fit along my guidelines that either I or ChatGPT has mentioned?
C: Are there any options that are a “NO!” that I should avoid?
If you don’t want to read through the whole list, it basically says: “I am willing to do almost anything and learn new things for a company or role that promises growth and stability, and naturally, a desirable income.”
Thank you in advance for all of your suggestions!
