Im now The Operations Manager for a group of restaurants, but i’ve
worked my way up the hard way.
I am still amazed at the rude, stupid people that i come into contact
with on a daily basis.
Guys, remember that this job is not for everyone, take pride in doing
something that “normal” people will not be able to hack

Great advice
Thank you so much Rueben…There are days where I want to just cry and walk out or scream and hit someone. Thanks for the support and you are right, not many people can do this job. At our restaurant, I’ve probably seen over 30 girls come and go through the doors…hard stuff.
Still fighting the good fight and still meeting complete aholes. Why do people become so thick as soon as they walk in a restaurant? Ive never figured that out. Why sit at the one dirty table when there are four clean ones? And why oh why do you bitch about having to wait twenty minutes for a table when you can see that the restaurant is full?
I feel all your pain people, but know that the world over, servers are going through the same things that you are

Hi Reuben!
Greetings from Finland! I’m dealing with the same idiotic customers here too. Every freakin’ day I get the same “why do we have to wait 30min” etc.. so frustrating!!!
Oh my God! Sitting at dirty table when there’s few clean around, air conditioner blows too strong, while two seats further – it’s too hot in here! Wrr .Guys, I am a waitress in a foreign country, English is not my first language and my frustration hits the highest levels when talking to an angry, rude customer and not being able to answer back fluently.
My boss is a viscious men. Each time a customer (following head office’s advice I should say: a guest..) presses the “calling” button placed on every table you can hear loud: Can I order please! hello! hello! I’m thursty! going all over again till someone reaches the table and on every shift I clean hundreds of dishes – last kitchen porter I saw a year ago – manager is saving money. I feel filthy and exchausted most of the times. And I guess I just wanted to say to someone who understands.. take care all of you!
Best regards,
Ewa
