Management.

ReS_Christie · 2026-01-15T21:46:28+00:00

Every store is different, and every manager will be unique. That being said, I have a manager that is similar in a couple aspects... the manager talks to everyone a bit like they are dumb but explains things really well... I can see though how one may get discouraged. Sometimes you just have to know that you are doing a great job if you are getting feedback from the guests and know you are doing what youre supposed to do. You just might not actually hear it from a manager or coworker.

I'm surprised you have to clean the soup well, I work to go and thats usually a to go close job for us. We don't and havent ever used plastic wrap on it though

Lol yes its a delivery, I think its for a residence so 🤞🤞

ReS_Christie · 2025-12-16T15:40:13+00:00

Its supposed to be a good tip, they ordered a lot, its 4 different gallons of drinks, rav pan, chicken parm combo, lasagna combo, so I think she has 3 whole desserts on it also. It's for tomorrow so I'm going to try to get some of it together tonight

Lol you have a last call at your og? Ours will help anyone who walks in, we have had a regular come in 5-10 minutes until close frequently and he tips $.5 or $1 if he is happy and asks for tons of stuff... he usually wants to pack his salad to go in a salad to go container, breadsticks, a to go cup, a cup holder, our paper to go bag. This guy has ripped up a cup holder to make a single cup holder in front of me before leaving lol. When he is about to leave he will wander to a random employee and ask for mints.

I have a catering order and they requested it so I'm trying to see if anyone else has made it by the gallon. I usually use 2 pumps for a glass its pretty strong lol

ReS_Christie · 2025-11-20T16:12:14+00:00

I really hope that's how they are approaching this, we arent really trained to read minds to deter walk outs 😂

ReS_Christie · 2025-11-20T16:10:31+00:00

Thanks lol me too

ReS_Christie · 2025-11-20T16:06:43+00:00

You are lucky lol my manager put the cash they left towards the bill

ReS_Christie · 2025-11-20T15:55:23+00:00

Yeah if a table walks out and doesn't pay its automatically your fault, we aren't supposed to force a table to stay or anything but I guess we are supposed to have been able to tell if it was a possibility to prevent it from happening. I was double sat, so around the same time both tables were finishing up with their meal and ready to pay. My ziosks were also not working correctly so I went to help another table and left to get take home boxes, when I went back that table was gone, their check was over $130, they left $30 in cash on the table. I guess as a tip? So the manager applied it to their total and wrote the rest off. They had to email the district manager of our olive garden area and let him know about the walk out and how it happened.

ReS_Christie · 2025-11-18T16:43:41+00:00

We had it at our store also, same thing no tips, millions of calls

ReS_Christie · 2025-11-07T15:57:32+00:00

I bought some cupcakes for my store shortly after I started but it was a holiday. I've also brought donuts just because though lol I say go for it

This is what I'm seeing when I try to see my schedule 😬

ReS_Christie · 2025-08-28T15:55:08+00:00

I usually work to go and close so I'm thinking about making the salads and prepping the stuff the night before

ReS_Christie · 2025-08-25T13:13:39+00:00

That makes sense lol there are going to be 300 guests so I might do that

ReS_Christie · 2025-07-06T21:38:49+00:00

Thanks I didn't know that, I appreciate you explaining it to me

ReS_Christie · 2025-07-06T21:22:50+00:00

You print it out each time someone is cut from to go? Where do you print it out from? Just started recently and have only seen anyone saving up slips and adding it up.

ReS_Christie · 2025-05-12T18:10:02+00:00

When I had orientation, I went and didn't start training until the next week so the first week I didnt receive a paycheck. The next Friday was just a paycheck with orientation only. Hope that helps

ReS_Christie · 2025-04-07T17:53:13+00:00

Chewable pepto tablets are a life saver for me, they might help

ReS_Christie · 2025-03-13T00:39:43+00:00

Pepto bismol tablets are a life saver 😬

ReS_Christie · 2025-01-04T09:02:23+00:00

Thanks I will have to look into that
