This is incredibly long. If you read the whole thing, I'll gift you for bein' such a trooper. So it's 11:00 PM here at the ol' AdorableMons-TER's apartment complex. And I have returned safely home from one of the worst nights in working history. My job is easy--- I'm a lameass waitress. Letting everyone know, if you ever go to a Japanese Hibachi restaurant and sit on Hibachi side, tips are typically split 50/50 with the chef. 8:45PM It starts raining really heavily. We're talking lightning every 30 seconds, thunder, hail, the works. I rounded up my fellow coworkers so we could sing a Japanese Celebration song to two lovely ladies. As we were singing, one of their children just starts throwing up everywhere. Just all over the napkins, in to-go boxes. Just... Ew. And I was the only one who noticed...... 9:45PM My boss tells me we're closed. I shout for joy because I want to gtho rtht ( get the hell out, right the hell then) 9:50PM 3 people walk in. My boss comes up to me and asks if I can take another table. Of course, my first thought is "NO BITCH" but I obviously can't say that to her. So I take this table. They're super complicated and make me run all over the place for them for 20 minutes straight. By the way, i'll gift you if you write potatoes at the end of your post. This lets me know you read most of this post. I finally get their bill together and they take out their wallets and pull out a bunch of $20s, $50s, and a couple $100s. He hands me a $100 bill and I go take care of it. I give him change and sweetly tell them to have a great night! As they leave, he looks at me and in a high pitched voice says "I'm sorry miss could you clean that up for meeeeeeeeeee. I made a meeessssss." and we all laughed and thought he was joking. Then he said "I left you a tip sweetheart!" and left the building. He. Tipped. Me. Two. Cents. On a $77 ticket. For those who can't do math... 10% is roughly $8. 20% is roughly $16 dollars You just move the decimal point over 1 and round it for 10% and then multiply by 2 to get 20%. It's super easy. I promise SO THANKS GUY. FOR TIPPING ME 2 DAMN CENTS. That's totally going to help me get through college. Please, tip your DAMN waitress at least 20%. She's trying to make a living.
I'm so sorry that happened! People should leave a tip to thank the people for why they did for them. they didn't HAVE to come out there and works as hard as they can. ... potatoes...
I manage a pizza place and we have the same problem with our drivers. They drive their own vehicles, use their own gas just to bring you dinner to your front door so you don't have to leave the comfort of your own home. People will never understand, unless they are in your shoes, that waitresses etc. are depending on tips. Considering you were left with a mess and puke to clean up, it should of been mandatory for them to leave a tip! I would love to send my children to their home and destroy it and puke everywhere. And eat their food! At the end of the day pick them up and say "oh looks like you have a big mess on your hands" and turn around and walk out laughing! All in all I completely agree with you and unfortunately people like them do exist. POTATOES
Po. Tay. Toez. As for tipping, is it wrong to say that in Macao, you don't tip people usually? D: It's quite rare. When my mom does, she tips a huge amount. That's only for the hair stylist though. e.e
potatoooooooooess chad.. Whered ya live? I'll send u $20. Maybe chad forgot to give you the damn $16. I dun wanna be waitress And what Is the mess anyway? i want a complete detail story..
I mean, we get paid $4.65 an hour. And in Alabama they get like 2 bucks an hour. so I'm semi-fortunate to be a in a state where the cost of living is higher. It'd make sense if I made like $7.50, which is federal minimum wage. But I don't. The mess was rice all over our carpeted floor.
The life of being in the restraunt business. There are people at the restraunt where I work at. I'm gonna be a server, but right now I'm a busser. They want a refill, you get and come back they want napkins you get them and come back now they want more napkins you get it and come back now the kids want more refills. I mean come on ask for everything at once. Hello The least you can do us just give me one trip and tell me everything at once. I do have two other servers and 13 other rabkes to watch over. Ten minutes pass and they call u over now they want to speak to a manager. They complain eat half their food and say food was awful. They frustrate me and their server complain about everything and get 20% off their meal. Then their table is a complete mess. Then they don't tip the server. And I want to be a server I am proud to admit I always over tip If you come to my restraunt keep the damn POTATOES on the plate and not the floor. I would of gave you $40 as a tip $5 for coming in late $5 five for the mess $30 for excellent service POTATOES
