I also flatly refuse to use a QR code and order my own food at a restaurant. I tell them I'm old and need a menu AND waitstaff. It's not that I don't know how to use it... I just think if more of us refused, more wait staff will get to keep their jobs.

On the Marine’s birthday, and Veteran’s Day tomorrow, I give you this joke:
I was humpin’ ALICE before you ever met MOLLE.
Thank you. Please tip your waitstaff.

Like LA waitstaff, you have great headshots

I don’t see this as merely petty but rather illustrative. It’s like being rude to waitstaff; you can’t also be a good person.
This is far and away my pettiest Tim Kaine gripe but the Senator’s advance staff always deliver a bottle of Maker’s Mark that is for him only to fundraising events so he doesn’t have to do toasts with the cheap beer and wine the hosts provide and that always really irked me

You can judge a lot by how people treat waitstaff and also how fucking day shift pharmacists ignore techs when we say good morning. Fucking dicks.

It’s not only waitstaff who deserve a living wage.
Are men in uniform, ladies and gentlemen
What an absolute smack in the face

That’s what my mama always told me to look for. Not how they treat their mama or waitstaff or gifts or w/e.
The man that knows you like iced tea with lunch, hate mushrooms & that your trash goes out on Thursday? The one that keeps some of that coffee creamer you like at their house?

Thinking about how poorly the waitstaff is treated.

Now all we get is grasswalls, hookah, and automatic gratuity from lazy ass waitstaff.

They may not even be proud boyz. These are folks that responded to the ads for up to $50k bonuses & the reduced training to 47 whole days. Real waitstaff takes 1-2 months to be sufficient. I took an 8 week course to be acceptable entry level phlebotomy.

This has reminded me of a restaurant I went to with a friend many years ago. The owner pushed his waitstaff to go up to people while they were talking or eating and initiate "friendly" conversations with them. I had to ask them to leave us be when we were discussing a sensitive topic.
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.
They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.
If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."
🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.

Target is now requiring its employees to smile more
As the holiday season fast approaches, Target is urging its employees to add a little more “jolly” to their work routine.

🌀 When we were waitressing our most common complaint from customers was the music was too loud. That was management's fault though, waitstaff complained about it too.
Also we love that he's calling out a specific Jimmy John's lol

No one I know gives a fuck about this kind of buttkissing from store clerks, and I imagine the kind of people who do are the same ones who whined during the pandemic because they couldn't go out and feel important having underpaid waitstaff serve them for under $3/hour plus tips.

Unfortunately, the waitstaff didn't inquire about Howard's dietary restrictions before the meal.

You go to a restaurant. The food is not only worse than it used to be, but it costs more. You can eat standing, but a stool is $60. The waitstaff is still paid the same crappy wage, but the owner makes 1000x what she makes and she is forced to offer you a credit card that gives bonus meals.

The patience that the NoMa Ted’s Bulletin waitstaff have for me and my old work team when we cram 7 women into a booth…inestimable

James Watson, the co-discoverer of the structure of DNA, has died. tinyurl.com/j7cau27e
I met him when we were part of a panel discussion on how to improve the portrayal of scientists in TV & in film. I remember most his very dead-fish handshake.
He really didn't like women in science. 📰🧪

Growing up in the south, I picked up the small talk with strangers (cashier, waitstaff) but it took me almost to my thirties to calibrate for the workplace. It's a way to say "I recognize you as a fellow human being and not just the instrument of a transaction."

Couple next to me at the bar seemed to have no regard for waitstaff. Kept making food runners hold plates for an extended time and then couldn’t manage to outright ask for their check when they were done

For elders, it is often the only social contacts they have and they are DEEP. And the cashiers, and the waitstaff and the meals on wheels drivers know it and mostly honor those connections. The need and reciprocity.

I think I remember reading that she mostly puts on an act - she's apparently pretty nice in person and able to work with others. Supposedly she's even nice to waitstaff, which is always hard for those hungry for power
