lol I worked in restaurants/bars/diners for about 10 years. Believe me most places are disgusting; in part because of poor training, ignorance, and lastly, mean people.
LOL, if your average, thin skinned, entitled, sensitivity-trained, corporate drone were ever subjected to the employee interactions of the restaurant world, they'd melt. Oh the hazing, sexual harassment, general harassment, physical altercations, derogatory nicknames...
haha I worked in the Blarney Rock Irish bars in Manhattan in the late 70's. Good money to be had but you had to be quite deft playing the game between being pleasant enough to make good tips yet keep off the lewd drunks. I do think there were perhaps more gentlemanly manners then than now though. I got more grief from bad customers in the fancier places I worked.
Great thread, I was a chef in the early 80's. In cooking school in my class there were 18 men and two of us women. My mouth was way worse than Trump's little pussy grab joke. It was east coast too and I get the people who are offended by Trump, until I adapted I found it offensive too, now it is just funny. We women learned to handle ourselves. When I worked at a Marriott one of the waitresses was serving a table of athletes. One of them flashed her his dick, she looked down her nose at him and said, "What did you pull that little thing out for?" Totally humiliated him and came into the kitchen to tell us the story where we were just dying of laughter. We handled ourselves back then. Today a waitress might burst into tears and file a complaint.
Yup this. I always treat the restaurant people like they're the next person to give me a BJ, because I dont want spit in my food. If I was arguing with someone working on a restaurant, I wouldnt eat there, I'd just leave. It's not like they're gonna spit in your food because of an argument, but these people deal with BS all day for minimum pay, so your arguing might be the drop that overflows the ocean
As a former kitchen slave, Never Piss Where You Eat.
You do NOT know where your food comes from or what bodily fluids are in it unless you can watch every step of the way.
Ordering food is a sacred trust agreement, and restaurant staff are NOT above breaking it. And this from experience pre-dating the TDS era.
I simply would not order food in this day if I did not know the cook and the staff personally.
