Management Profile
Michael Klein is manager of food service for a major conference center. He typically works 50 to 60 hours a week, which is relatively low by the industry standard. His job duties include menu development, work flow design, revenue and profitability analysis, food cost control, purchasing, sanitation, and training and developing for his staff. He meets with customers and plans special promotional events. He enjoys the independence he experiences in his work, the recognition he gets from others, his work environment, and the working relations with his staff. He dislikes the commute of about an hour from home to work and the physical demands of the job (he walks and stands constantly during his shift).
