Connector
What is a Connector?
Ali & Me'Kenzi: "It's learning about your guests and eliminating anonymous. It's literally connecting with them. It's being personable and engaging. It's listening and helping guests to feel seen. It's more than service and "just" serving - it's hospitality."
Best part?
Ali: Meeting new people, feeling their energy and making guests feel seen.
Haley: Connecting with and meeting new people. Creating experiences. I love the social aspect of the role.
Hardest part?
Ali: Getting comfortable with being uncomfortable. You get to get out of your comfort zone in order to get guests out of theirs..
Me'Kenzi: The hours. If it fits your life, it's great. But if you're not into it, it can be a lot.
Advice to someone considering joining the team
Me'Kenzi: It has to be about more than just the money. Your main focus needs to be hospitality. You have to be coachable, dedicated and have a good spirit.
Haley: Be completely yourself. Don’t try to be someone you’re not. Come ready to work. It’s not easy. Just come ready to learn and be open-minded.

experience leader
Best part?
Ariel: Made me get out of my comfort zone. I’m introverted and shy and wasn’t sure I’d be a fit when I started. But seeing how our guests respond to our team’s energy makes me happy.
Olympia: The highlight is the hospitality we’ve cultivated here. There’s nothing quite like the excitement that fills the air when we open the door to our beautiful venue and see our guests’ eyes light up. It’s a moment that never loses its magic.
Hardest part?
Ariel: You must like what you’re doing. Adapting to the culture because we stand on our business.
Advice to someone considering joining the team
Ariel: Be coachable and be yourself.
Olympia: Embrace curiosity and continually seek to learn and improve. Be adaptable to an ever-evolving culture. Oh, and you must be a team player! There is no “I”, only “W3”!

amplifier
Best part?
CJ: The team. You’re not at It’s like you’re not at work. We feed off each other and are able to re-charge each other if we get down.
Chace: The food is amazing and you learn a lot about food. You can come in with zero experience and get a real education. It’s also fun to create experiences for our guests and their reactions when we bring them their food is awesome.
Hardest part?
CJ: Stepping out of your comfort zone. The job can throw a lot at you at one time. You have to get on yourself to keep up.
Chace: Being behind the scenes and getting limited “showtime” can be challenging. The spiels and menu knowledge are difficult.
Advice to someone considering joining the team
Chace: Be yourself and don’t overthink things. You must be social and want to talk to people. Most important thing is to be coachable. We will coach you, but you have to want to hear it.
CJ: Come in and be authentic and ready to work hard. I promise you’ll be great.

What is an amplifier?
Chace: "Someone who is everywhere. We are the backbone and foundation of operations. We don’t just drop food off at the table- we put our personality into it, and you know the ingredients to be confident and knowledgeable when you do. We support everyone. We may not always be seen, but our presence is felt everywhere."
door team
Best part?
Dewan: I enjoy connecting and laughing with our guests, whether it’s their first time or they’ve been here before. In our role we get to greet our guests before everyone else and be their first impression.
Xavier: Being able to interact with our guests and celebrating with them!
Hardest part?
Dewan: Turning people away. It’s challenging to have that interaction with a stranger when you are unsure of how they will perceive it, and each person takes it differently. We just want to keep them safe, and we hope they understand.
Xavier: Being able to pivot and cater to each guest. It can be challenging but is rewarding.
Advice to someone considering joining the team
Dewan: Be willing to learn and get out of your comfort zone. This role has challenged me and gotten me out of mine. You can’t take anything personal. We just want the best for each other, and that goes beyond work - that’s what makes our team so strong.
Xavier: Be open to learning. There is a lot to learn, but if you trust the process, it can make you a better person.

technician
Best part?
Seth: Learning new things and learning how our games work. Developing a skill in your arsenal and using it to fix something, and then fixing it… the dopamine when something gets fixed is real.
Hardest part?
Seth: Some game pieces are really small… smaller than your hands. Working on pinball machines can be like working on cars with the types of challenges they present.
Advice to someone considering joining the team
Seth: If you don’t have the desire to learn, this is not the place for you. You need to want to learn. Don’t be stuck in your ways and understand that the responsibilities from day to day can vary based on the needs of the business.
