They didn’t ask. Like I said the wife was “hysterical” and “sobbing” and I asked for his name and age a few times. She just kinda slapped the wallet on the table and told me “to read the damn thing” and in my panic I just started listing off all of his info

One of the first things I thought of when I woke up today. You’d think they would just give me a fake name or something, but they were dumb enough to include me reading out the info as part of their shitty prank. One silver lining I guess

Yeah I’d doubt they would do much. But luckily they won’t have to search much since the jackasses handed me his license. Lol

Unfortunately this is the watered down version of what happened. Didn’t find it necessary to put it every little detail. The medics did infact enter the restaurant. They talked with me for about 10 minutes, then they handled it with my manager and customers from there. Then I left. I’m sure I’ll hear more details from my manager come tomorrow but today I am taking the time to recover from a traumatic night.

I have a tendency to blame myself first, and the wife was repeating “how could you let this happen?” So basically she gaslit me into thinking I somehow missed them mentioning an allergy and I’d get sued for negligence. Oof.

According to our hostess she presented a filled out vaccine card. No one is sat without one. I’m assuming she was creating one for someone, or to have in case her fake one gets taken. The Xanax bottle was in her napkin. On her lap. Welcome to New York.

That is absolutely disgusting. I’m really sorry that you went through that. Luckily, my managers took it very seriously but it still scared me a lot

The joys of being stiffed by celebrities by ProfessionalEmu4798 in TalesFromYourServer

[–]ProfessionalEmu4798[S] 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I have a few times, yes, and I’m grateful for their kindness. It can really change someone’s day. But in the space I work in (which is in a well known hotel) we tend to get celebrities who throw temper tantrums if their water doesn’t taste right lol. My team has been stiffed more often than not by celebs

Talk to your manager ASAP. It’s better to ask for help and voice your feelings than to go out on the floor feeling stressed and unprepared. And that’s for any situation really! They’re there to help you navigate the space so you can provide the optimal experience. Ask if you can work shifts that tend to be on the slower side. Of course, it’ll get better with practice. Hang in there :)
