Title: So exhausted...missed you all! Post by Mrs Deej on Jul 31st, 2006, 2:29am Heeelllllooooo everyone! [smiley=wave.gif] So in the past 48 hours I have worked 27!! My brain is moosh, my muscles ache, feet are swollen, and my knee is on fire!!! (For those that don't know, I work at Applebee's as a bartender) I don't think people quite understand the hours (and running their asses off) that waiters/waitresses, hosts, cooks and bartenders put in to make your dining experience great...now you know. (not that you didn't appreciate it already ;)...) But I have to vent, I had some of the rudest people come into my restaurant this weekend. I wanted to say..."are you always this pissed off or is this just the way you are?" STFU!!! I absolutely love what i do...but I miss my husband when I'm away so long. :'( The next time you are out at a restaurant enjoying your meal, think about how many hours your waiter/waitress has put in for the day, if not the week. (AND working for $2.13 an hour!!!) I love you all and missed talkin with you this weekend. Hope you have a FABULOUS week...talk to you soon! Love and Support... Steph..... [smiley=sleep.gif] |

Title: Re: So exhausted...missed you all! Post by LeLimey on Jul 31st, 2006, 5:44am It really peeves me when people treat those in service industries badly, I love the stories of waiter/waitress revenges, they really amuse me! Personally, I've always used how boyfriends treat waitresses, barmaids etc as a guide to whether I want to be with them or not.. and whether there will be another date or not! Those are hellishly long hours Steph, time for some R&R for you now [smiley=hug.gif] lots of love Helen xxx |

Title: Re: So exhausted...missed you all! Post by brewcrew on Jul 31st, 2006, 7:52am One of the things I've learned, now that I'm firmly entrenched in middle age, is to NEVER take out your problems on bartenders / waiters / waitresses. You think YOU had a bad day? Think what it must be like schleppin' food and drinks for some a$$hole who thinks it's cool to use you as a verbal punching bag. And I ALWAYS show my appreciation by leaving a good tip when the service is good. 25-30%. It's only right, especially when you consider what they are making as an hourly wage. |

I do the very same. Nobody deserves to be treated badly. (My boyfriend is one of those people who will compliment the staff when food is great etc.) Steph, I hope that the next time you go to work your customers will be wonderful ones! :) Best wishes, Sanna |
