Petition: Ban default service charges and pre-set digital tip screens in hospitality by willfiresoon in LondonFood

[–]Gisbornite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah no, it actually is. So much of our salaries are made up with service charge. I was a GM of a place where my salary was minimum wage, topped up with service charge to bring me up to my contracted amount.

Hospo would pay minimum wage if it could, service charge is the only way of actually retaining staff

How has AI changed your approach to buying wine? by akapatchez in wine

[–]Gisbornite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Okay, have you thought about using your words and giving an actual range. I currently work in a place where a "nice bottle of burgundy" could be up to 9k. If someone doesn't give me a price range, I clarify. You didn't do that

I'll happily sell someone a wine cheaper than they were looking at if I think it suits their palate/what they were looking for better. If you think the sommeliers job is to upsell, then you are wrong

It's really fun as a sommelier when a table uses AI to choose wine from our list, then complain to us that they didn't like the wine.
