Megan’s Answer

With great power comes great responsibility. You are in charge of not only a bunch of people with different needs, personalities, and goals; you are in charge of making sure guests continue to come in the door; you’re in charge of creating a profitable business. Lots of moving parts, lots of hats worn.
