***Original***
Crawfish Palace Inc. operates a restaurant that offers a variety of Cajun, Seafood, Creole, and Southern Cuisine, specializing in boiled crawfish, but including other items such as gumbo, boiled shrimp, oysters, or fish. Because Crawfish Palace's specialty is fresh crawfish, the restaurant opens annually around the beginning of October and closes the following year, around the middle to the end of July. The company requires seasonal workers to serve as Seafood Cutters and Trimmers. Crawfish Palace purchases live crawfish that is delivered to the restaurant. The Seafood Cutters and Trimmers would thus be responsible for sorting crawfish, washing crawfish, removing debris, grass, foreign material and aquatic animals; peek shrimp. Stock and maintain the food prep and serving areas of the restaurant sanitary; carry food supplies, equipment, and utensils to and from storage and work areas. Select food items from storage areas and place in take-out containers/bags.
