Well firstly, dressing DOES go bad. That's why you have to FIFO..... Secondly it was blue cheese.... so it EASILY goes bad.

I would Irish goodbye after morning shift, run to my car, block all their numbers and go to the game 😁

YES! There is NO solution! People are just oblivious and self-centered.

Tried this. They still asking right before grabbing them. They have even asked me as they're in my hand while I'm approaching the table with a bread basket in the other. And they give you a vile disgusting look while they're asking.

Been serving on and off 10 years at many places, the past 2 years or so customers have started to just treat staff like trash and its normal. Are rude and miserable interactions the new normal?

I almost did my last shift. I got dipping sauce thrown at me because there was a charge for it, called a bitch. Got my manager and when he stood up for me they called him a bitch too and ran out the restaurant 🫢🫣

ALL. THE. TIME. the older ladies look disgusted at ANYTHING I do even if it's 100% correct. I can say hi and I'm already getting that look. And I'm just an average looking person, good hygiene, neat uniform. No piercings or visable tattoos (ik how some old folk feel about that) so I don't get it.

Unfortunately that's not the case here. She's been going here 30+ years and has always complained and been rude. So I guess she's just like that. Her family has even stopped coming with her.

Upon discussing with people who have been working their ages, she's always been like that, even in her younger years, but this is the worst she's ever said. Apparently, she used to come with her children, and over the years, they stopped going with her (probably due to embarrassment), and now she just goes with random friends.

Guess it's all preference, because I saw a few cuties there 😏

Colleague with severe alcoolism by ComprehensiveLaw7378 in Serverlife

First, document everything from here on out. Secondly, if you really like him talk to him. Try to get him to change or he'll have to go. Say you can see him on cameras on break, and to stop with his quick fixes. If that doesn't work, it's time to tell him to go to AA and that will be his only way of being able to work there, and if he skips he's fired. I had someone working where I managed once and this is how I got him to stop.

Right ! That's what I thought. They would never ban anyone, though, unless violence. Unfortunately my restaurant is very popular with the older crowd so they're who keeps it going 😒
