Grocery/retail/restaurant thread

What ? Are you implying that i'm telling lies or that it's "just" part of the job ?

Not at all.

I'm implying you should have made a bigger deal about it AT THE TIME.

That cannot be acceptable behaviour where you're from.

Oh yeah. Well i was a dumb 16yo and for some reason i was thinking that you can't sexually assault a man and/or didn't wanted to get shit from gypsies.
Now i'm 23, i still get my ass grabbed from time to time, i don't make a big deal of it. I play their game, stay nice and polite, in most case the tip is juicy so who cares ? As long as they don't do embarrassing crap and that i'm not underage anymore.

Apprentice chef life. Stuck doing prep everyday. I've traded a dead end office job for dead end manufacturing job.

At least I enjoy what I do.

>doesn't do anything about getting his ass grabbed
>"the tip is juicy"

user...

Well, my teacher always said that being a waiter implied that we whored ourselves. It's just taken a bit more literally.
To be really fair with you user, my mother was a whore, my grand mother too and my great-grand mother too, so in the end, this isn't exacly surprising i guess.

assuming this is real, you know you could've sued right? find camera footage of yourself in there and a witness who heard him told you to put yourself in there and you have a court case for a good amount of money

"Spoil them with service" was a primary tenet of one of my old grocery jobs. It does lead to an exceptional sense of entitlement among a few customers, Nothing you can really do about it.

There's literally nothing wrong with ass grabbing.

>work at a sit down restaurant
>it's obvious that we seat you with how the front is layed out and how there is a sign that says "wait to be seated"
>sunday lunch
>one of the busiest lunches I have ever worked
>restaurant I work at never has more than 3 people serving but today we would definitely need 4
>all tables completely full
>people waiting up front for tables to clear
>suddenly 2 asian douches walk in past the crowd and sit a table for 4 we aren't done cleaning
>tell them they shouldn't soit down at an unclean table and that other people are waiting
>"oh sorry"
>they continue to sit, I and everyone else working is to busy to deal with them so we let them be
>they flag me down not long after and tell me that they would like the table next to them after they finish because they have 6 more people coming
>my boss won't let us kick people out unless he says so, so I say fine
>they take over both tables with their six additional people
>after 20 mins they are ready to get their order taken and then proceed to all leave when we tell then how long the food will take

Can't say I liked those customers

Every time
Not me but at some italien restaurant i went to
>little place, few tables but it's also a two man team, one dude making pizza at the oven and the other guy doing everything else, from the orders to the others dishes
>nearly everyone go for the pizzas because they got a real oven fueled with wood and it's 10/10
>one dude want to get fancy and take some pasta
>waiter says that it will take some time, dude agrees
>then he bitches the whole fucking because it's taking too long meanwhile everyone else is getting pizza
>he fuck off 30sec before his meal is ready without paying
I was angry just seeing that

>sitting in this Hispanic local restaurant with my best friend
>everything is chill, wait for food is long but we can hold a conversation so the wait is actually nothing
>all of a fucking sudden this guy starts playing his guitar
>'we have live music every weekend sir"
>dude doesn't know how to play the guitar

top kek
also got one where i was the dude waiting
>go out with a friend
>we gotta eat, look at a chinese restaurant, seems to have enough people inside to not be total shit but not too much either
>go in, order etc
>we waited like 2h for entrée-main-desert
>didn't said a word because nobody else said anything in the restaurant, mostly old people tho so i can see why it didn't bother them
In the end everything was alright, but i don't know why i had to wait so much for a bunch of shit that takes 5min top to make with a fucking wok
Also they had like 5 waiters for maybe 12 tables

That doesn't sound very safe user.

...

Meanwhile, all those other orderly customers resent the one and you risk them losing what little etiquette they had.

This desu

I'm new here.
You know what I've learned from Veeky Forums so far?
Women really do suck at telling stories. The greentexts on this board are some of the worst I've ever read. I even admit I'm terrible at it, but piss on my fucking toast, this confirms the stereotype for me.

Wow so you're the retard who thinks that this place is full of women ? Welcome :^)
Put a trip already so i can filter your ass

the women of Veeky Forums are all on

>women
I accidentally click on that board about twice a year and every time it looks like a bunch of high school girls gossiping about tripfags. How old are you?

>he doesn't know

The one on the right isn't bad, but that stumpy fat foot in the shower is even more horrifying than the thing next to it

I'm posting in another "grocery" thread too but this one seems more official

I'm the Seafood Specialist (a.k.a department manager) at a Publix

>working at Macaroni Grill because I had hit a new personal low
>guy orders red wine
>takes a sip
>spits it back into the glass
>"I can't drink this, it's not cold!"

Also when I worked there we served the table wine in like juice glasses at the table. Literally every customer would ask for a regular wine glass, but if we brought the glass to the table management would bitch.

>quit in the middle of a Saturday night dinner rush because yet again a bunch of the staff called out sick so they could fuck each other and get drunk instead of working
>Manager was chasing after me because I was the only one with a sense of work ethic that showed up
>Manager: "If you leave, don't think you're coming back!"
>Me: "That's the plan!"

Felt great, I recommend everyone quit a shitty job like that at least once in their life.

>used to work for pizza hut
>giving a known bitch that comes in every Sunday her take out order
>starts getting bitchy with me about the price of 2 liter sodas as if I can do something about it

if you're trying to get a discount you probably shouldn't be a cunt about it

I'm too scared to not call in

Just start putting aside enough money to cover expenses for a month.

Waiting tables is such a high turnover job (assuming you're not serving at a high end place) that as long as you can speak English and don't show up to the interview drunk or high they'll hire you.

"hello" = "hi there I can help you"
if you're going to address someone you need to be very upfront about not being able to help them immediately

After working in food service for so long I've made an effort to point out pieces of shit in public and humiliate them.

I swore at the last guy who gave me a hard time at my job, surprisingly still have my job.

Just stand up to fuck boys.

My dream is to call a piece of shit a nigger and a kike, maybe get attacked and getting them arrested.

>Sued.
No, it's part of the job, a really shitty part of the job but still.
When going into the compactor you lock down everything and power the unit down.
And I am the only one with they key to unlock it.
No way in hell that compactor was going to activate.

>Customer wants to buy a table.

>Wants to see manager so they can get a better deal through broken English.
>Manager shows up.
>Tries to explain the same shit I did to them.
>This takes another 10 minutes, they keep wanting the display for 20% more off because it's damaged.
>lolno.
>They pay, finally and go to the loading area to pick up the massive 200lb box.
>Open the loading door and see that they are driving a sub compact SUV packed with child seats.
>They insist the box is going to fit inside.
>Off by a foot.
>Wants me to strap it on the roof because they don't know how.
>Company policy says I can't do that, so no.
>Wants the table taken out of the box.
>It's the same size as the box I try to explain, the whole table top is one piece.
>Manager makes me do it anyway.
>They take the chairs and we are stuck with a table top taking up room in the loading bay for a week.
>They complain that is is damaged when they pick it up finally, manager gives them 20% off.
