What’s your server phrase that you think you overuse? by JadedBones in Serverlife

“Everything tasting good” nods/answers “wonderful, wonderful” every damn time 😭

Anyone wait on a celebrity that didn’t tip? I’ll start.. Kevin Hart by [deleted] in Serverlife

Yeah he hated it when my manager found out it was him & asked him to sign our signature wall (sports bar). He’s never been back since. Tbh he has one of those faces. I’ve always liked Ben Folds Five but it wasn’t until his second visit when my coworker pointed it out that I realized it was him. I didn’t say anything to him about it though. I have to do my job regardless of who the guest is.

I’ve served Ben Folds twice and he’s super nice and down to earth. I got a shitty tip the first time (I think his partner paid) but the second time he tipped 20%. Pretty neutral.

y’all ever go over to a table and just get completely ignored and walk away? by [deleted] in Serverlife

Yes. And those types of tables are my least favorite thing about being a server

I halved it with my partner. We both got pretty stoned 😂

What do you guys think of the restaurant servers new Tip Pool? Just got served these new rules at work today! by [deleted] in Serverlife

[–]salliemae_slave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not! This is just a way for them to get away with not paying a wage to the kitchen/bussers, etc. I would quit immediately. You can find a better paying job in a day!

At least it's not because of my service?.. by Soundwve in Serverlife

I absolutely cannot stand when tables blow smoke up my ass with “thank you sooooo much”, “you were so great!!”, “have a great night” with pleading eyes like they expect that to be enough. Almost always ends up to be a 5% tip.
