AS5512-Restaurant Manager/ Assistant Restaurant Manager - Potbelly

Thu, 02 Sep 2010 00:00:00 GMT

Potbelly Sandwich Shop began in 1977 as a small antique store run by a nice young couple. Despite the fast-paced, never-a-dull-moment world of antique dealing, the couple decided to bolster their business by making sandwiches for their customers. What began as a lark, turned out to be a stroke of genius. Soon, people who couldn't care less about vintage glass doorknobs were stopping by to enjoy special sandwiches and homemade desserts in this unusual atmosphere.

Our philosophy on giving is aligned with our mission, "To Make People Really Happy."Kindness and the spirit of generosity are part of our culture and history.

As you would expect, our passion for great food helped us develop a huge following of loyal Potbelly fans. It's straight forward, great tasting, wholesome, comfort food. We truly appreciate every customer who comes in to visit us. We recognize that everyone is an individual with unique tastes, likes, and eating styles - including a desire to eat well.

At Potbelly, a customer gets the chance to create the sandwich or other item the way you want to have it. We don't start making your food until a customer places an order...so they can let their mood determine what they order.

From their very first visit customers are often hooked (some have even been known to experience intense cravings the very next day). It doesn't take long before Potbelly fans have a favorite sandwich or salad they refer to thereafter as "My Potbelly".

Sun, 08 Aug 2010 00:00:00 GMT

The Starbucks Experience is more than a cup of coffee. You get more than a simple coffee when you visit a Starbucks^® store - you get great people, first-rate music, a comfortable and upbeat meeting place, and sound advice on brewing excellent coffee at home. It is also the conversation and environment that surround a customer's experience. In part, that means creating a comfortable oasis away from the demands of work and home.

Coffee and tea are at the heart of Starbucks history. Our passion is to excite and inspire our customers to enjoy the finest quality coffee, tea, food and merchandise products available. Starbucks^® offers coffee lovers a handpicked selection of dozens of varietals and blends of the finest arabica beans. Coffee buyers personally travel to the coffee-growing regions of Central America, Africa and Asia Pacific to select the finest beans. Once these quality beans arrive at one of the company's three roasting facilities, Starbucks^® professional roasters pursue the art form of creating the rich signature Starbucks Roast^®. This dark roast is not just a colour; it is the cumulative result of expert roasters listening to the coffee and bringing all of its flavour attributes into balance. Whether scooping a pound of Sumatra coffee, serving a hot Tazo Tea, or blending a Frappuccino^® Ice Blended Beverage, coffee and tea are at the core of what we do at Starbucks^®.

Starbucks Coffee Company is the leading retailer, roaster and brand of specialty coffee in the world, with more than 8,500 retail locations in North America, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East and the Pacific Rim.
