No lords you are not invited to respond to this and we couldn't careless what you have to say on this subject!
That being said....
I would never do it her way because I would never make any money and never get any of my work done! I am 41 years old and have over 25 years in the industry. (That's if you don't count my childhood spent with my Mom at various bars/restaurants helping her out)
I'm just starting this thread and have a million reasons why I wouldn't! But please those that ARE in the industry share with us all why you wouldn't do it her way! |

Hmmmm..........tough question.......
Maybe because she's an idiot? Because she's admitted she can't even work in a mailroom without screwing up?
I wouldn't want that moron waiting on me. I'd end up eating her for dinner. I'd chew her up and spit it out. Forget my 25 sides of bernaise sauce and you're done biatch.
But that's just me. I'm a tough customer. Ha. |

Oh wait, I'm not in the industry anymore so I'm not allowed to comment. I refuse to eat at chain restaurants so I just shouldn't be in this thread. Plus, I just plain like people, whether they are serving me or not, so I can't be unbiased. Most people are imperfect but it seems that when somebody puts on an Applebees apron, they are supposed to become perfect robots and kiss the ass of trashy people that eat there.
I didn't know anyone actually ate at Dennys. Who would, except for homeless people who can't afford anything else?
Sorry. My bad. Carry on. |

I'm just LOVING YOUR CAPS COORLITE BEBE!
When I was a server, I not only tended a 30 seat bar ALONE, but I waited the tables upstairs. I did it all by myself. And I did shots when my clients bought them for me. The people waiting for me to do the shots before I made their drinks cheered and tipped me $5 if they wanted me to dance on the bar.
They didn't care about their selfish little "bellies" as Lords of Ass likes to call her stomach. They were there to have fun and HAVE FUN WE DID! Customers and waitstaff together, we all had fun.
On the rare occassion that I got a moron like Lords in the bar she got ignored until she left the premises. I'd actually point that person out to my regulars and "poof" they'd be gone.

Why? Why, you ask? If you have more than one table its rather impossible, unless you dont plan on tuning that table over. There are times when you have to fulfill more than one request at the same time Its rather important to not alienate the kitchen staff, or food runners. Its critical to save time by multi tasking, which may include pre bussing a table while going to get a check. |

Lords just wants to be waited on by her mommy. Maybe mommy never gave Lords what she needed so the world is going to have to pay for it.
MOMMY I NEED MORE RANCH DRESSING!!!! MOMMY I DON'T WANT DR. PEPPER NOW, I WANT COKE THIS TIME. MOMMY MY FRIES ARE TOO DARK/LIGHT, THEY NEED SALT/THEY'RE TOO SALTY...............
MOMMY LOOK AT ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But mommy wouldn't look at Lords so she pays people for attention and if they don't give the "right" level of attention at third rate restaurants she docks their tip. Everywhere she goes life is all about her because now SHE'S PAYING FOR IT. What she doesn't even know is that she's dissing her mommy.
MOMMA, I NEED SOME MORE RANCH AND I NEED IT NOW!!!!! MY FRIES ARE TOO DARK. FIX IT MOMMA!!!!!!!!!!
If that won't happen and we know it won't, Lords of Ass will terrorize servers for the rest of her life.
Well, she tried. Until I put this wonderful hex on her ass. She's done now. |

Actually, I'm going to go the other way. I wish I could do things like lords in a restaurant.
- Memorizing the menu and the price of everything would make my brain really strong.
- Doing everything in order would mean I have lightning speed to meet the needs of everyone without causing anyone to wait.
- I'd be able to read customer's minds for I would know if they want a refill or not without bothering to ask.
- I would never make mistakes, therefore being perfect is like being a god.
- I would be caring and would not need money to support my life because it's more important for the customer to be happy, than myself.
- I'd have magic powers to create sauces and condiments out of thin air.
See, these things would be cool to have, so yes. I would do things like Lords.

"I didn't know anyone actually ate at Dennys. Who would, except for homeless people who can't afford anything else?"
I, my husband, and my mother like Denny's. Also my friends do too. SO WHAT if it's cheap, it's GOOD QUALITY FOOD in my opinion. I LOVE their ranch and I LOVE their grand slam entree. I also LOVE their club sandwiches. It is YOUR opinion that homeless people only eat there, but it's NOT the truth at all, FAR, FAR, FAR, from it.
"The people waiting for me to do the shots before I made their drinks cheered and tipped me $5 if they wanted me to dance on the bar."
They were tipping you for the dance, like a STRIPPER WOULD. NICE to know that you are TRASHY as they come. You made the $5 ONLY for the dance, NOT for your TERRIBLE and INCONSIDERATE customer service, which you are ADMITTING in your sentence that they tipped you for the dance.
"They didn't care about their selfish little "bellies" as Lords of Ass likes to call her stomach."
LOOK WHO'S TALKING about SELFISH when YOU were thinking of YOUR SELFISH BELLIE, NOT the CUSTOMERS that were WAITING PATIENTLY TO BE SERVED. WHAT A HIPOCRIT YOU ARE! LOOK IN THE MIRROR AT YOUR SELFISH SELF. You were suppose to be WORKING, NOT dancing or taking your own shots, doing the work you were SUPPOSE to be doing that was your job. If you were only a bartender, then that is what you are suppose to be doing, NOT dancing for customers or taking shots for your SELFISH BELLIE. HIPOCRIT, HIPOCRIT, HIPOCRIT is WHAT you are.
"On the rare occassion that I got a moron like Lords in the bar she got ignored until she left the premises."
That is INCONSIDERATE and RUDE as well as MORALLY WRONG. If I wasn't causing any problems, then WHY ignore a PAYING CUSTOMER and a POTENTIAL tipper?
BTW, the word "occasion" has ONE s. You are ALWAYS hounding me about my spelling, LOOK AT YOUR OWN HIPOCRIT.

"Its critical to save time by multi tasking, which may include pre bussing a table while going to get a check."
It saves time ONLY for the OTHER customer's as well as yourself, but NOT saving time for the customer's that just requested their check and are READY to leave as SOON as possible. If the table needs cleaning, do it AFTER you do what the customer just asked for, otherwise you can't honestly except a good tip for making customers wait LONGER for your side work. That's just inconsiderate. WHO tips the server? It's the CUSTOMER, NOT the dirty table or the dirty dishes, the CUSTOMER, so act like the customer's time actually MATTERS and you'll see BETTER results in the tip. Maybe, just maybe, a person was going to give 22%, now they will give 20% because they are being delayed 2 min. for the server bussing a table. The server DOESN'T honestly know if they WOULD HAVE RECEIVED a BETTER tip if they would have thought of the "CURRENT CUSTOMER'S" request instead of doing something else to delay it that wasn't something ordered before that request such as let's say 2 entrees for a table is ready before the server gets to the computer, then that's DIFFERENT because the table's entrees had been ordered BEFORE the request for the check had been made. So I CAN and DO VERY MUCH UNDERSTAND that type of situation coming before a request, but NEVER, EVER, EVER, dirty dishes and dirty tables. That can ALWAYS be done AFTER a customer's request has been fulfilled. Think of people's FEELINGS that are WAITING LONGER TO LEAVE, NOT to think of dishes that are just sitting there. That's just plain NON-CARING about the customer. |

In a small restaurant like where I work now, I would be fired and they would be out of business if I did everything Lords way! 15 tables and at lunch they all fill up at the same time. Not just once but sometimes 3 or 4 times depending how early they start and when lunch actually ends. With her way, I would have 14 tables unhappy, because I was going in order and they only have an hour for lunch. Those 14 tables would leave mad and tell everyone about how thier lunch was horrible because they never got thier food because I was kind and caring and fair and going in order. So I will have one table happy and 14 that will never come back. Over one weeks time I have made about 100 tables mad. That's just with the first rush. Now my boss is mad. I'm not making any money and they are locking the door. But loa would be happy. Whatever! Shut up lords you were specifically NOT invited to this conversation because you have nothing to offer us on this subject! You've never been in the restaurant industry. Shut up! And go away! |

I know I'm starting to sound like a broken record (or maybe a scratched CD . . . we've got to update that analogy sometime), but the only way you'll get Lords to go away is to ignore her. She's an attention whore, and she thrives on provoking you. By responding to her, you're giving her exactly what she wants.
Is that what you want?

lords, stop lecturing me on how to do my job, I read it the first time, and dont need you to reiterate it again. Besides the server doesn't know if they are receiving a worse tip for clearing a table while going to get a check either. Since when waiting tables I usually had more than one table, so I had to consider everybody, not just the table that requested a check. |

Hey I'll tell you a Denny's story. I worked there over the summer when I was 18 and needed a summer job while home from college. Anyway, a customer calls in a to go order. It was a grand slam with sunny side up eggs. They then call back and say they have an emergency but will come later to pick it up. Instead of throwing it out and remaking it later the manager makes them keep it and microwave it 2 hours later. This was back when grand slams were $2.99. This is the quality food LOA is talking about. |

Ass: "LOOK WHO'S TALKING about SELFISH when YOU were thinking of YOUR SELFISH BELLIE, NOT the CUSTOMERS that were WAITING PATIENTLY TO BE SERVED. WHAT A HIPOCRIT YOU ARE!

What you don't understand you moron, is that people go to bars to party and have a good time. The waitstaff can make or break the evening for a bar. When we partied with the guests, EVERYONE had a good time. Nobody was counting the seconds until they got a drink or watching if the barstaff did something "out of order". We were PACKED every Wednesday-Saturday nights. My boss used to start the dances going by giving me the first $5, so he was happy and I was DOING MY JOB by getting the party started. I thought he was going to cry the day I gave my notice. He's still a good friend of mine and for years I'd stop in sometimes and dance on the bar for him, just to get the party started. LOL
But you wouldn't see it that way. You'd be the person in the corner that didn't join in the party. You're the odd man out everywhere you go. And I think it's hysterical that you consider dancing fully-clothed on a bar trashy, yet you behave in public the way you do. You're too uptight to have a good time anywhere and you're young enough to be my kid! It must really suck to be you.

"I would have 14 tables unhappy, because I was going in order and they only have an hour for lunch."
WHY in the HELL are they GOING TO LUNCH at a NON-FAST FOOD restaurant if they ONLY have an hour? It's THEIR fault if they are late for work, because they CHOSE to go there.
There are SO MANY things that can happen like a server pressing the wrong button and delay a co-worker's food at the table. At least at McDonald's you can get another sandwich within 5 min. or so, you CAN'T at a non-fast food restauarnt.
jenaclaree
"Instead of throwing it out and remaking it later the manager makes them keep it and microwave it 2 hours later."
Actually I AGREE with the manager on this one. This INCONSIDERATE customer calls in and DOESN'T cancel the order, they decide to come pick it up later, so WHY make the business LOSE money over an INCONSIDERATE CUSTOMER that order something they can't come pick up right away? I understand if an emergency has came up, but it must not be much of an emergency to pick the food up later. I would have just went to pick it up and PAID for it because I ORDERED IT, it's ONLY FAIR to pay for what you order.
They wouldn't microwave a meal if the customer was a CONSIDERATE person. You can't expect Denny's to WASTE their money on a person that called in an order and then decided to wait 2 hours to pick it up. By not telling Denny's to wait 2 hours to COOK it, it's the CUSTOMER'S fault if their food is crappy.
"You're picking on her spelling and in the next sentence you spell hypocrite wrong. The irony is that is so hypocritical of you."
Actually it's NOT, because I KNOW I don't spell very well, but big_momma acts like he's PERFECT with his spelling and grammar. So big_momma's the hipocrite who keeps throwing that in my face.
jammie
"Since when waiting tables I usually had more than one table, so I had to consider everybody, not just the table that requested a check."
In a line you don't consider EVERYONE at ONCE, so WHY do it when someone requests something? Like let's say table 6 just asked for their check and table 7 asked as you were walking by to get a refill(you didn't stop to listen, just heard that the person had asked for one AFTER table 6 asked for their check). You SHOULD go get table 6's check FIRST and THEN go get the refill just like you'd serve someone in a LINE. First come, first served. HOW would it be FAIR or morally RIGHT to go get table 7's refill BEFORE table 6's check? It would be WRONG to make table 6 wait LONGER when they requested something FIRST. It may take 2 minutes longer to get table 6's check. WHY DO THAT TO PEOPLE, WHY? WHY make people wait LONGER when they requested something FIRST? It's not right to let them "CUT" in a sense, it's just NOT. |

Ass: "WHY in the HELL are they GOING TO LUNCH at a NON-FAST FOOD restaurant if they ONLY have an hour? It's THEIR fault if they are late for work, because they CHOSE to go there.
I've gone out to eat at sit-down restaurants thousands of times and gotten back to work within an hour. Real restaurants understand that people have to get back to work in an established amount of time. From what I've seen at a local Applebees at lunchtime driving through the parking lot the patrons are missing teeth and scratching lottery tickets as they hobble to the front door.

They didn't have to call back at all. They didn't even have to come pick it up. It's not like you get a credit card number when you take a to go order. However, putting eggs and pancakes in a microwave is horrible and not very hospitable. It is the hospitality industry. It cost them about $1 to make a grand slam. They could have re-made it. |

Since you insist on being where you were NOT invited... Most of the population enjoys great food, great service and McDonalds only offers crap that you enjoy! These people "CHOSE" to eat in the restaurant that I work at because I bust my butt to make sure that they get in and out in less than an hour. By never ever doing it your way. I multitask, prebus, chit chat... I sell more apps and desserts than the two girls that work at night everyday! I do this at LUNCH! Because I am good at what I do and have 25 years plus under my belt. I not only sell the product, I sell myself, and I sell the entire experience. I upsell without being pushy. Today my goal was to sell out the dessert case. I did it. Because I'm good at what I do! I have customers that will not eat there on Wed and Thurs because those are my days off. They don't see my car out front.... they don't stop. Real simple because I don't do things "YOUR" way I have the smile on my face and the money in my pocket. Yet you are a miserable customer that gets horrible service all the time because of your rotten attitude and total disrespect for everyone but yourself. But maybe when you hit puberty and start to grow up you'll be able to understand what a mean and selfish child you have been! How ashamed your parents must be of you! But by the way you have been raised they do have to shoulder some of the blame. No manners, and you being raised in the south... shame shame on them! And never taught to share! Again shame shame on them! You remind me of the 4 year old I had today and her mommy. Mommy kept telling spoiled child "Honey, don't take the lid off your drink" Child SCREAMS! "But it's MINE"... Child spills the drink all over herself. I brought napkins and walked off. I thought about you. If she had been my child and she showed that kind of disrepect (just like you do to us all the time!) first of all she wouldn't dare, second she would have had her butt beat. Maybe that's what you need. Instead of people trying to correct you for your 4/5 year old behavior... You need to have your butt beat! And my guess is if you don't wise up, some server or bartender may just take on that task!
That being said.... go away. |

I know, that was hysterical! I'll have to keep a closer eye on my stray chin hairs, huh?
I just made the most incredible Italian Wedding Soup. I'd never made it before and it came together within 45 minutes. I ADORE my convection oven, those little meatballs cooked up in no time while the rest of the soup was being thrown together. My daughter loves learning how to cook and we had fun seeing how small we could make the meatballs. |

OMG wedding soup is my favorite!!!!!!!!!!! I used to work at this restaurant in NY and Mrs Miele would make it and would give me some to take home.. It was like heaven! Wedding Soup is something I am trying to get at my restaurant now. Cheap, easy, and so freaking wonderfull! When we go "home" I always call ahead to order it. I swear to you I am JEALOUS! I really want to make it but I am afraid that I won't make it like hers and she is sooooooo Italian that will only pass it down. Crap, I'm off tomorrow... I'm making wedding soup. I watched her for years, I know I can do it. I love wedding soup and I love you! Yummmmm home made soup! Was going to make chili but wedding soup... all over it! Thank you for making me a better person Momma! Without you I would be thinking about how evil she is, now I am on a different mission! Love you! Karin |

Love you too Karin! It's nice to spend time doing little, worthwhile things, and cooking is my favorite hobby. Here's the recipe I used. Hubby is 100% Italian and he ate three huge bowls.
1/2 lb lean ground beef
1 egg, slightly beaten
2 tablespoons breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
5 3/4 cups chicken broth
2 cups chopped escarole or spinach
1/2 cup orzo pasta, uncooked
1/3 cup finely chopped carrots
grated parmesan cheese
In medium bowl combine, meat, egg,bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, basil& onion powder; shape into 3/4" balls.
In large sauce pan, heat broth to boiling; stir in spinach, orzo, carrot& meatballs.
Return to boil;reduce heat to medium.
Cook at slow boil for 10 minutes or until orzo is tender.
Stir frequently to avoid sticking.
Serve with additional Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top.
I doubled this recipe and used both parmesan and romano cheeses, and added a clove of garlic to both the broth and the meatballs. I also used fresh spinach but I think I'd prefer escarole. |

Oh god Anne I felt like a heathen searching for a minute. The people I work for don't like romano cheese but I love it! I am so going to make this tomorrow and bring it in to work! I am so thankful that you sent me that... I can see Mrs Miele and everything she put into it. AND her heart too! John is very excited too! LOVE YOU! I am so excited I may have him take me to the local WalMart to buy everything I need... I have the spices, but the rest... you know I suck and don't have much around here but beer and diet pepsi! Yum Yum Yum! My tummy is already aching for it!!!!!!! |

Wow I so prefer romano to parmesan!! I can't wait to hear what you think about this soup after you make it.
Have you ever gone to http://www.recipezaar.com/?
I've gotten some of my best recipes there. There's a chicken cordon bleu recipe that's to die for!
I'm glad that I got to see you here tonight, it's made everything better. I don't know why I bother wasting my time replying to that moron, but her ignorance infuriates me. Now the family and I (and our 3 pugs) are going to snuggle up on the couches with blankets and watch Big Momma 2.
Enjoy the soup! I'll be at the table with you in spirit. Mangia! |

I am going to go to the couch myself... I am so excited about it! I know how you feel... train wreck... pisses you off and have to respond although you know that it will make you mad! John is off tom, so will be there and let you know how it turns out! I am drooling and can't help it! Not only for the soup but the memories that it brings!!!! (PS Romano is my choice too...) Love you so much and glad you are not a man! Although I would love you just as much! Your heart your mind and your spirit are incredible! Enjoy your time with your family and know that tomorrow I will love you even more! That's how life works! |

I wouldn't do my job the way lords wants it done because I would get fired.
Bottom line.......
Please read this again lords.....I would get fired if I did it your way.
Reason: Every guest would be complaining about me.
Again...I would be fired. |
