'I felt like the queen of petty': Waitress shares her politely shady method of salvaging her coworkers' tips

'I felt like the queen of petty': Waitress shares her politely shady method of salvaging her coworkers' tips

Waiters and waitresses work so hard to provide fast and friendly service, but some people just don't want to tip, no matter how good the service is. This waitress shared her story of the time she refused to let her coworkers get stiffed on their tip, and it's an awesome tale of pettiness succeeding! As the OP shared to r/Talesfromyourserver, it was a slow day at her restaurant, so it already wasn't the best day for earning tips. At the end of the night, the OP encountered one couple on a date.…

Redditor u/throwraWaitress109 posted on the /r/AmItheA**hole subreddit, asking for advice on a situation that had come up with her and her husband after they went to a restaurant for a night out on his birthday.

When asked to stop, the waitress just smirked. So u/throwraWaitress109 went home and left a bad review, ultimately leading to th…

Server Waiting an Anniversary Dinner Catches the Man Messaging on Tinder, Cleverly Outs Him in Front of His Girlfriend

Working in the service industry has so many curves and dips, it's a chaotic job to say the least. You have Karen customers yelling at you left and right, you have inexperienced and yet entitled managers getting hired, and sometimes just the strangest things happen. For instance, you could be casually waiting on a table when all of a sudden you witness a man cheating on someone he's literally eating dinner with right that second. So what do you do?

Twitter Thread: Server sparks debate and discussion around the life lessons and experience that comes with working in the Service Industry

Your first job in the service industry (or retail, I'd argue) is a formative experience. For most of us, it comes at that time in our life when earning some cash is a necessity: Maybe you've just graduated high school or college and need a job; maybe you're still in high school; maybe the career you thought you were going to have as an Olympic level athlete didn't quite work out, and now you have no idea what you're doing with your life. Ignoring the fact that the last example is oddly specific…

'I do not do OF, nor have I ever done OF': Waitress recounts terrible treatment from group of teen terrors

There's nothing that makes you feel so entirely helpless as being bullied by children. It's this weird catch-22 where you both are unable to retaliate but are rendered completely vulnerable by their cutting words. Kids know exactly what to say to cut you down, and their frank honesty can leave you with no retort or means for retaining your pride. This is even worse when you're in a customer service role. Being bullied by anyone in a customer service role feels like crap, but when it's kids doin…
