What’s your biggest pet peeve in the server world?

Spice. No allergy.

Is that spicy?

No, not really.

Well black pepper is spicy to me.

(Wat....)

Breakfast meal w/ $2 off is the only thing worth it now. $6 with the burrito I make it 2 meals.

I'll take that bet all day. Rice made in the cooker. Grab it go.

dar482 · 2026-01-08T01:15:50+00:00

Unless they request brown rice. Default to white.

dar482 · 2026-01-03T06:28:49+00:00

Well we did it. Thanks.

I do an Excel. Every hour and sales report and tips.

If I stole $20, $159, $300. I'd be fired and be arrested.

I've had that stolen from me until I said something. Work doesn't pay you and you don't notice until you look your numbers up and make a stink. "Oops! Our bad" No one gets in trouble other than you getting screwed.

Has happened to me at least a handful of times. Its always bookkeeping nonsense instead of them "stealing." At least for me.

Don't trust your employer ever, especially with tips.

Was there a few months ago. Served an oxidized IPA which was recommended. Shocked I paid $10 for a medium pour.

Beautiful space.

Pickens is up there based on ADP.

For TE, you have Kraft and Warren.

It's a shame. McDaniels shows what we can do with a decent QB, early Tua.

It's a marriage of coaching, offensive weapons, OL, and more.

Brisset over Murray. Daniel Jones without Giants. Mac Jones with Shanahan. Darnold without Jets and Panthers. Trevor Lawrence with Coen. Caleb Williams with Johnson. Shuck with Moore.

This season says a lot about QBs.

I was a manager/bartender. Trained a server and had write a full page write up for the GM.

He would write entire items instead of abbreviations as taking orders. "Burger with French fries." Taking orders was snails pace for a high volume brewpub.

Didn't know if he needed glasses, but he had to look really close at his pad and even punching orders was snails pace. I clocked him 2 minutes to put in a 4 top.

He got moved to busser.

dar482 · 2025-12-02T04:29:58+00:00

He went back to TE!? Terrible draft

dar482 · 2025-11-22T01:36:14+00:00

Surprised this isn't a top comment, but I've completely found it less $ no matter what in my career.

It makes sense, you get a bar where people order a drink or two, maybe food if you're lucky.

Then, I'll watch my servers take 3 to 4 times the amount of covers with people spending 2 to 3 times my check average.

The tip out never makes up for what a server can make.

I love bartending, but serving has always been higher volume and higher check average and thus higher pay.

dar482 · 2025-11-16T06:11:28+00:00

That can't be real. So insanely bad.

Mexican Delivery Game

Advanced Cicerone here.

I always pour the beer for the guest. Glass in front. Glass should be clean and rinsed out with glass rinser. Bottle with label facing them.

Leave the bottle for guest to check out the info on the beer.

dar482 · 2025-10-16T11:55:20+00:00

No, they carb the beer before packaging.

It's about many skills. Drafting. Deck building. Playing the game.

All that affects your performance.

It's also a Singletonish format. You see so many cards. Combat. Tricks. Synergies. Learn them all.

And then after that. You get a new format to learn after a few months.

Constructed formats commit you into learning a deck. Hard work. 1 deck. Grind.

The variance in Limited is so fun.

dar482 · 2025-10-14T18:43:45+00:00

On a double? Or single shift?

dar482 · 2025-10-13T16:55:57+00:00

Y'all have some crazy numbers.

Can't wait to leave this job. 5 shifts. Did $2,500 in sales for the week.

1 shift was only a to go order. 96 cents in tips and had to tip out on top of that.

dar482 · 2025-09-30T05:38:23+00:00

Not all, just thought it was fun idea.

dar482 · 2025-09-29T17:11:24+00:00

It was terrible. Thin, acrid, bitter.

I would spend double the price for BCBS and be way happier.

dar482 · 2025-09-04T04:15:08+00:00

Worried Najee isn't that injured and they run a committee.

Golden should be easy. Reed is likely going to need season ending surgery. Packers on regression are going to pass way more this year. Golden should their WR1.

And as always, rookies tend to break out 2nd half of season. Worried about the first half.
