Produktbeschreibung
Behind the Scenes in a Restaurant: A Study of 1017 Women Restaurant Employees is a groundbreaking sociological and economic investigation into the lives, working conditions, and experiences of women employed in the restaurant industry in the early 20th century. Drawing on detailed surveys and personal interviews with over a thousand women, the book offers an unprecedented look at the realities faced by waitresses, cooks, dishwashers, and other female staff in restaurants, lunchrooms, and hotels. It explores their daily routines, wages, hours, living arrangements, and the challenges they encounter, including job insecurity, health risks, and social stigma. The study delves into the motivations that lead women to seek restaurant work, the opportunities and limitations they face for advancement, and the impact of their employment on family life and personal aspirations. Through vivid case studies and statistical analysis, the book exposes the often harsh and exploitative conditions endured by these women, while also highlighting their resilience, resourcefulness, and sense of community. Behind the Scenes in a Restaurant is both a compelling human document and a call to action for social reform, offering valuable insights for historians, labor advocates, and anyone interested in the history of women's work and the evolution of the service industry.
