Good And Bad Catering Jobs

Good catering jobs are easy to come by after you’ve been in the business successfully for a couple of years. It is harder to find catering jobs if you screw one up. I have heard that if you make someone happy they might tell a friend, but if you make them unhappy, they will tell ten friends. I have found this to be very true.

I consider good catering jobs to be the ones where the client has suggestions about what they really want. I don’t like to be left guessing when I am planning an important event. I also consider catering jobs to be good if I was paid promptly. First and foremost, this is my business and I am trying to make money.

Bad catering jobs are the ones where the client gives us the bare minimum time to set up for the event and pays us at the last possible moment. I also dislike criticism for the menu if I was not the one that chose the food. I don’t like to hear complaints about the food, but I listen very carefully to comments.

I have had catering jobs ranging from a big fancy wedding all the way to a pool party for a local radio station’s DJs on the Fourth of July. I like when I am able to have fun with a theme. It seems like less and less parties have themes anymore and you almost never see costume parties anymore. I miss those kinds of parties.

The best catering jobs for me involve afternoon teas and dessert parties. Those are my favorites. For some reason, they seem less stressful to me than a catered sit-down affair. There is usually more work involved in a tea or dessert party, but I guess I enjoy it more. I have gotten a lot of referrals for tea parties.
