About The Position

At Boxcar, our product is a good time. For us, that means cold drinks, exciting games, great pizza, and even better people. Boxcar has four locations across North Carolina. We’re not a chain. We value personality. What ties each spot together is a team that cares deeply about making each guest’s night a great one and looking out for one another. Our vibe is eclectic, sometimes eccentric, but always welcoming. Our customers are a mix of pinball regulars, after-work crews, party-goers, competitive skee-ballers, and folks who just want a smooth drink in a place that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Our Barbacks are the backbone of the operation. We are looking for people with a high motor who can anticipate needs before they happen. If you want to learn the industry from the ground up and aren't afraid of hard work, this is where you start.
