These American Servers: January 2014
http://theseamericanservers.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 24, 2014. I waited on this fivetop the other day. They were pretty nice. A somewhat elderly gentleman in the party ordered a Miller Lite. I convinced him that his best bet would be our 22-ounce Blotto™. Sure thing sir. Just a second. The other beer drinker in the group polished his off just fine and you could tell he wished he'd opted for the larger serving and it was a little bit of a struggle for him to not order up another. I'm fortunate enough to be a member of a credit union. I'v...

Wednesday, July 29, 2015. 8482; It was a little more my kind of place to work and I put in a lot of effort to prove to the bosses and myself that I was good enough to belong there. The chef when I started there quickly took a dislike to me. Not so much that he thought I was a bad employee (I don't know his thoughts on that) but a personal. Well, he's gone now and while the new, current chef and I are far from best buds, we're cool. Merrie. Chez Swanky. That Tidbit of Intel. The Valley of Despair. July 31...

These American Servers: September 2014
http://theseamericanservers.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 30, 2014. I'm back. I was maybe going to abandon my little project here, but I'll think I'll stick with it awhile longer. But I don't have anything new ready to go, so here's a blast from the past that I kind of like. Nobody read it then, so if you stumble onto it this time it'll be new to you, right? Tracey had station three on Tuesday. Nobody's guaranteed the same station every day but it usually works out that way. And as usual, I was working Curveside. One deuce was a middle-aged c...

Friday, January 23, 2015. Do you ever enjoy a salty snack while you're consuming a long-awaited new episode of. If so, insert the Orville Redenbacher. Product into your trusty Kenmore. Microwave, 'cause it's. I ran into Sheldon Silver, a fellow waiter of my acquaintance, today. He shared a story with me about how he'd visited the little wannabe doctors' office at Walgreens. Back in 2012 I went in search of a night job, still having a day job at The American El Chico. A guy (the General Manager) stuck hi...

Wednesday, September 19, 2012. I can no longer deny that my managers are bad managers. As people I think they're great, I would even hang out with a couple of them, that's why even though they do all sorts of stupid "bad manager" shit I would always try to defend them.even against my own doubts. What has prompted my change of heart? Here is where I completely see their point of view:. Communication- between each other, us and the managers, us and the kitchen staff. Solution: fix it or be termed. Sit down...
