Please mark Brainliest! It is greatly appreciated. The answer is irony. If she works in a sushi restaurant, that is seafood. If she doesn't like the food she makes, isn't just a tad bit odd? It's funny to see the coincidence here.

It's irony. The fact that she doesn't like seafood is ironic to the fact that she works at a seafood restaurant. Malapropism is mistaking a word for another word. A pun is a joke that exploits the different possible meanings of a word. A metaphor is a figure of speech.
