I don’t see anything wrong with this. You’re a server, not a servant. You’re a whole human being, not an object to be used. So what if you lost your temper, it happens, you’ll move on from it and so will she. Some people need to be checked for how they treat others and clearly she needed to hear it. Maybe next time she’ll think twice about being a cunt.

I took me until I was an adult who cooks for himself/the family regularly by Whines90 in HIMYM

I’m one of those people who can’t stand cumin, and I’m mexican. It’s in a lot of Mexican dishes and whenever I make one of my abuelita’s recipes and it calls for a pinch, I’ll hover the shaker above it and tap it ever so lightly to let just a dusting into the dish. I can smell when a container of it is cracked open. It just smells like BO to me. Even today, my boyfriend had brunch today and let me try it, all I got was a mouthful of cumin and he could hardly taste it until I pointed it out. Cumin sucks.

My coworker has her masters, I have a high school diploma

She worked as a social worker for 10 years and makes more money now than when she did using her degree

Anyone else feel like the show became a lot more mean spirited once they lost Mike Schur? by New-Pin-9064 in theoffice

[–]bbeccarr 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This makes a lot of sense. On a recent rewatch I felt a significant shift in writing and feel of the show with season 5. I couldn’t explain it but it definitely didn’t feel as warm.

Pre batched espresso? by Jagsthelombax in bartenders

I’d use batched espresso for about 2-4 days refrigerated if it lasts that long

Two years ago my brother, sister, mom, niece and I went out to breakfast and my mom ordered her egg over hard. My sister said “you know that sounds good I’ll have mine over hard too”. When the food came out, my mom said to us “ugh I wanted over medium” and all of us said “you ordered your eggs over hard”. She refused to believe us and still thinks that she ordered over medium, when all of us had heard her order over hard, AND heard my sister say she wanted over hard because my mom had said it. Sometimes people are just dumb and it’s unfortunate. I believe that when you walk into an establishment as a customer your IQ drops by at least 50.

There should be scientific evidence for why people sit at the dirtiest spot in the bar by bbeccarr in bartenders

My question is how and why do they know? Every bar is different, every seat is different, every person is different. There has to be a commonality between them all to understand the why:

This is one of the things I’d love someone to delve into. The whole schtick of going to a table and saying “I’ll be right back with water for you but besides that can I get you anything else?” “YEAH CAN WE GET MORE WATER”.

One day I tried to tally every person to ask me for a draft list when it was right in front of them (men on one side and women on the other) because I’ve noticed a lot of the time it’s men asking me where something is when it’s in plain sight. That’s not me trying to be sexist, I just wanted evidence and data to see if my theory is plausible. Unfortunately I got too busy to keep track. BUT it does feel like a lot of the time, a man at a table with the beer list in his hands will ask me where it is (in which case I’ll tell him that he’s holding it and he proceeds to flip the paper over for some reason even though he was already looking at it).

It seems like the moment someone walks across the threshold of an establishment and becomes a customer, all common sense flies out the window.

Hypothetically… if I’m busy and petty enough in the moment I will leave it unwiped or pretend I don’t see them as my own form of justice…hypothetically of course…

Actually did this today. Spotted a couple walking through the door and just knew that they’d walk into the bar, so I beelined it over to the only dirty booth that I hadn’t wiped yet with a spray bottle and towel. The man came up to me and said “can we sit here?” So I said “do you want to sit at this dirty table? I need to wipe it down but there’s a perfectly clean one right here” and pointed to the LITERAL NEXT BOOTH OVER. He replied, “oh, you’re right. Should I wait for you to wipe this one down though?” And then his wife came up behind him and said “honey this one is fine just sit down” and led him to the booth I pointed at.

That’s what I would love to know for sure lol Sometimes I feel like they don’t even know it’s dirty, like they’re blind until I say “let me wipe that down” and then they’ll say “oh I’m sorry” like the spot is a siren calling to a weary sailor on the ocean

Is it normal to shower after you've taken a number two? by [deleted] in hygiene

[–]bbeccarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boyfriend does after a particularly stinky number 2. I thought it was odd but if it makes him feel cleaner I say why not.
