“In opera, there is always too much singing,” Claude Debussy once said. There is no such thing at the Macaroni Grill. If you got the power voice then head over to that restaurant and put it to the test. Play-Well TEKnologies is seeking some talented people to teach engineering principles to children using LEGOs and not to mention there are still local seasonal opportunities.
