Welcome to Morsels, your go-to newsletter from MAJC✨, breaking down hospitality insights into bite-sized chunks.
“It’s finding people that you like, that work well together, and then giving them the tools that they need to do their jobs.”
– Paul Donahue, co-owner of The Colonnade and Lingering Shade Social Club
Hiring is not about filling roles. It is about building a team that can hold the work, and a culture that can hold the team.
That same principle guided our launch in Miami. We publicly released MAJC✨ Jobs during the South Beach Wine & Food Festival, bringing a structured, verified hiring platform built specifically for hospitality into the hands of operators.
Because tools matter. Alignment matters. And the right systems make strong teams possible.

In this week’s Restaurant Ready episode, Paul Donahue shares how he leads The Colonnade, a nearly 100-year-old Southern landmark, while also running Lingering Shade Social Club, a modern neighborhood bar built on experimentation and community. If you care about culture that actually lasts, this episode delivers.
Takeaways:
- Cross-training builds accountability and long-term stability
- Small systems prevent chaos without killing creativity
- Loyalty grows when leadership shows up consistently
📖 READ: MAJC✨ Is Officially Live in Miami
Hiring in hospitality is expensive and unstable. Replacing one frontline employee costs around $6,000 when you factor in recruiting, onboarding, and lost productivity, according to Cornell research. Most restaurants repeat that cycle multiple times a year.
MAJC✨ Jobs interrupts that pattern.
It is a mobile-first, AI-powered matching platform built specifically for hospitality. Verified candidates. Structured alignment. Direct communication.
We also launched MAJC✨ Academy alongside our MAJC✨ Community, supported by an advisory group led by chef Andrew Zimmern and industry leaders across the country.
Read the full announcement and see what’s next.
