Line cooks, dish washers, night cleaning staff, and bus boys are often male. People "out front" are often female for various reasons. When I worked in a cafeteria, the men and boys often did the dirtier and heavier work like stocking freezers, cleaning grease traps, etc. I don't think it needs to be this way, but it's what happened. I'm not sure if that's typical or not, but it probably affects the longevity in food service work over time. That is, different work cultures and different managers may treat men differently.
