A lot of the people in restaurants have to at least smoke weed to cope with all the shit that happens there. I worked at a hibachi grill for about 5 months. About 80% of the staff did drugs. From smoking weed(legal in my state) to oxy, Adderall, Xanax, cocaine. At one point all of the hibachi chefs were on pills(idk what kind. This was before I got there) people would go out back and smoke weed whenever they needed to. Servers popping pills in the break room. Management knew but they couldn’t really do anything about it cause they would have to fire 80% of their staff and get more people that would probably end up doing the same thing.
No shame to anyone who does drugs. I understand it. It helps with you cope with everything.
