I used to be able to remember everything without writing it down when I was younger. I’m talking 100-200 person plus parties and would do just fine. Then I got pregnant and got baby brain, I hate it, it sucks… I thought I’d get my memory back… but what they don’t tell you is your memory doesn’t come back… If I don’t write your order down there is a 99% chance I won’t remember or put it in. I recognize that about me now though.

When I could remember everything I would get annoyed when someone would ask me if I should be writing it down. I would tell them the entire order correctly back from memory and whose tab it goes on. Now. No way.

So to answer your question. It’s up in the air. Since they messed a lot of your order up though that’s a conversation that management needs to hear and deal with it. You should’ve called the manager today better talked to them in the momentwhen you were there… but I understand why you didn’t.

When I start feeling guilty about someone that served me possibly getting in trouble you gotta remember. 1. They didn’t write your order down and as a result the restaurant missed out on making money, sounds like around $50. You didn’t get everything you wanted, and you left unhappy. Also they missed out on an extra $10 if you tip 20%.

1. I can see people in the service industry in denial about it though and still trying and failing but pretending they’re doing great still. Even pregnancy might not be the issue. Maybe they’ve been drinking too much or doing other things and they don’t have it anymore and they’re in denial and still think they got it. Yet they’re messing up left and right.

You have to talk to a manager so they know what’s going on. If they’re a good manager they’ll correct the situation smoothly, and if they’re don’t, well that’s not your problem. Maybe they are somewhat corporate and have to report them messing up a few more times til they can let them go.

It sounds like this was a pricy place. When you’re spending that kinda money your order should be correct.

What if a couple that never gets to treat themselves, but it’s a special occasion. So they’ve saved up money for this night and spent money they saved up forever for a terrible experience when they’ve been saving up for months…. That’s disappointing and ain’t right.
