Since this is an in-between job I would say do it. It will probably suck a lot of the times, but it’s not something you are going to be relying on career-wise. It’ll definitely help you build some bank, too

I'd do a trade.
Electrical, plumbing are hot rn
Stay a metric fucking mile away from automotive work, whatever you do

Practically my whole working career has been hospitality focused, couple years ago I made General Manager of the bar & restaurant I worked at. It's a slog, but it can be a whole lot of fun. Can't vouch for the US economy as I've been mostly UK/Caribbean based as an adult but there are always places that you can make decent wage + tips if you look into it.
That being said much prefer managing a bar than a restaurant... More creativity & general flair to enjoy it
Also if I were to sum it down to some basic pros/cons...
Pros:
- If you can handle being given shit when you don't deserve it 99% of the time you'll probably walk away with thicker skin
- Decent transferrable skills (there are bars/restaurants literally everywhere)
- Hours are usually long and demanding but in most places you'll get to know your team like your family. (Late finishes usually entail after work drinks)
- Money is usually good for whatever you need
Cons:
- People will probably treat you like shit because they're entitled
- Transferrable skills non-transferrable outside of hospitality (unless you stick with it and make a career out of it)
- Hours are usually long and demanding
- Money is usually good but you'll always find more ways to spend it

stop drinking. Just don't do the substances and you won't have to worry about becoming addicted.

job is so overrated
job 2 is better especially for a sequel

You are looking for a career so working at a restaurant would not benefit you at all. Look into HVAC they are so high in demand they will pay you for school as apprenticeship. I know people who have master degrees making 60k drowning ins student loans and people in trades making 90k with just a high school diploma and a 6m-1yr certificate
