What I find worse is when I go to a resteraunt that I went to today. It was a mexican resteraunt. And it was a sit down resteraunt. However, the food was basically fast food. This was a fast food place, better than taco bell, but maybe worse than chipotle. It was priced higher than chipotle by about 30%. And then you have to tip because its a sit down resteraunt. Except.....my server took my order, and then I never saw him again. Never refilled my drink. Never came over to check if everything was ok. And it wasn't a packed house. I was one of 5 tables, and 3 of the other tables had a different server.
Meaning, this guy had 2 tables to attend to, ignored both, someone else brought my food out, and then I sat there, waiting for the check......and he just stood at the bar, and conversed. Finally I went to the hostess table, and said "do I pay here? Orrr......." and she said "No, your server will be by with the check."
I felt like asking "Will he though???" After like 15 more minutes he came by, meal clearly done, and he says "So, did you want another root beer?"
And then it asked for tip. Tip for what??? You pressed a few buttons on an iPad, and then ghosted the whole dinning room for 45 minutes.
And it shouldn’t be your job to reprimand them. And they shouldn’t be financially reprimanded. They should be taught better by mgmt or let go. Not on you to manage someone else’s employees or wages. Wish we would all stop tipping at the same time.
huh, tipping as outsourced management. Never thought of it like that. So it's a win-win: Lower wages and less work to do!
Make people do the math too which people hate
