Start the New Year with a New Career
This is the time of the year when we all begin thinking about our New Year’s resolutions. Unfortunately the majority of our resolutions fall by the wayside. In fact, studies have proven 80 percent of all resolutions fail before the month of January is even over. That’s discouraging! Psychology Today magazine has determined four common reasons people have such a difficult time succeeding when it comes to life/lifestyle changes. These include: becoming overwhelmed, feeling discouraged, not setting clear goals, and not truly being ready to change.
For example, you set a resolution to lose weight. You change your eating habits; start hitting the gym and that number on the scale starts to go down. But then life gets in the way; you don’t exercise as frequently, begin eating unhealthy again and soon that resolution is a thing of the past.
That’s the beauty of making a resolution to find a new career. By working hand in hand with Staffing One Services you get results. It’s a fresh new year, one full of possibilities, so why not begin your new year with a new career? Been considering making a job change for a while now?

Earn Extra Holiday Cash With Just One Call to Staffing One Services
The holidays are here and the hospitality industry is scrambling to hire temporary employees. While many people began their seasonal job hunt in October or November, there are still plenty of positions available. And often these positions are at a higher rate of pay since they have yet to be filled.
For bars and restaurants the holiday season starts at Thanksgiving and continues through the end of the year. Extra help in both the back and front of the house is required for private parties, busier than normal nights and weekends and also during the week when many businesses will host company-wide luncheons or early afternoon happy hours.
The lodging industry also hires a large number of temporary workers each holiday season. From guest services to parking valets, room service attendants to housekeepers, the opportunities for a side gig during the month of December are endless. Plus, because of the time of the year many hotels and casinos offer extra perks to both their full-time and seasonal employees, including free meals, on-site department celebrations and bonuses for working Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve.
For many people working a seasonal job is a good way to add to your resume. This is especially true for recent college grads or someone who for personal reasons has been out of the workforce for several years. Also, if you’re considering switching careers working a temporary position, especially during the holidays, is a great way to get a true behind the scenes idea of how a company operates. You get to experience the structure and culture without any long-term commitment. If securing a full-time position is your ultimate goal, starting out as a seasonal worker often leads there. Just as you have the opportunity to “test drive” a business, the employer also gets a chance to observe your work ethic.

Staffing One Services would like to take this time to thank all our valued clients and employees and wish each and everyone a very safe and happy holiday season.
Stay Healthy While Working in the Restaurant Business
You love your service industry job. The money is good, the customers and other employees are friendly and the hours fit perfectly with your busy life. But you’ve noticed lately you’re more tired than usual, have a few more random aches and pains and today when you hopped on the scales at the gym, you’ve gained a couple of pounds. Don’t despair! Healthy tips to the rescue!
The majority of restaurant food is not only tasty, but depending on the establishment, it can also be fast and inexpensive. But the downside is the majority of restaurant meals are often high in fat and sodium with a total caloric count off the charts. And frequently one of the perks of the job is a free or discounted meal. Almost all restaurants have healthy options and you can combat all the negatives and still get your shift meal simply by making smarter choices. Order your fish or chicken broiled instead of fried. Select the vegetable of the day instead of fries. Drink water not soda or sweetened tea. And if a meal perk isn’t one of your benefits then bring a meal from home. That way you have total control over everything you eat while at work.
You want your legs and feet to stay healthy long after you retire from the food and beverage industry so it’s important to take care of them from the beginning. Invest in good professional slip resistant footwear. Then add orthopedic insoles and breathable cotton socks for extra comfort.
There is a reason you’re shown safety videos when first hired so pay attention. Both the back and front of the house is nothing but an accident waiting to happen. From slippery floors to sharp knives, grease splatters to broken glass, it’s important to stay focused while on the clock.
