    What Working In A Steakhouse Is REALLY Like! | 8ighty 6ix Order #14

    New Episode Out Now  In this episode of 8ighty 6ix, I’m talking about working in a steakhouse—from my experiences at Longhorn Steakhouse to Ruth’s Chris and everything in between. Different logos. Different price points. But sometimes it feels like this…  Steakhouses pointing at each other like the Spider-Man meme. The truth is, steakhouses are all the same—but different. Same pressure. Same standards. Same expectations. Just executed at different levels. If you’ve worked a grill, manned a broiler, or survived a busy steak night, this one’s for you.  Available now on Spotify, Apple Podcast & wherever you listen  Watch the full episode on YouTube  Follow @__8ighty6ix  Like, comment, and subscribe for weekly 8ighty 6ix content

    NSMH Presidential Tenure, Working in Hotels & Being A Housekeeping Manager | Chantz Jackson | 8ighty 6ix #12

    This episode is for anyone who’s ever worked hospitality and said, “Yeah… people have no idea what this job is really like.” I’m joined by Chantz Jackson, a Housekeeping Manager at a 600-room hotel, and we get into everything — from our college days and being part of NSMH, to the real challenges of working in hotels that nobody talks about. We break down what it’s like managing a massive operation, leading teams, handling pressure, and dealing with the day-to-day realities that come with the hospitality industry. The highs, the stress, and the lessons that come with the grind. And because this is 8ighty 6ix, we also jump into some classic foodie debates — soft vs hard shell tacos and the never-ending war of creamy vs crunchy peanut butter. Real conversations. Real hospitality stories. Real opinions. Tap in, laugh a little, and let us know where you stand in the comments.
