Refocus
Since I was very young I always thought I would have my own little mom and pop cafe/diner/catering company. Over the years I have worked for a handful of people always becoming the one that is given more responsibility, and utmost trust to interface with customers, and make decisions. I have currently worked in the same place for 4 years. I opened this spot, she's like my baby, yet at every turn when I try to do things to get more customers, increase revenue, I get shot down. My frustration level is to the point that I am not even enjoying the industry that I have loved so much. Due to convenience, I stay... but I wonder how many other women feel like this or have felt like this and what did you do? I have kiddos so I can't just flake out, I have to keep the roof over our heads and food in their mouths.

If I'm hearing you correctly, it sounds like you've put a lot of blood, sweat and tears into this and management isn't listening to your feedback to make things better? I would say it's time to look for other opportunities. I've been in that situation and moving on was the best thing for me.

What I meant is that I helped open this place, built chairs, shelving, etc. We have very limited preorders but it is always an option, there is just a lack of business in general at this point

What exactly are you doing that is your baby? And is there a way you can do pre-sales or pre-orders to bring in more revenue?
