Tattoo

Sun Aug 2, 2009, 1:07 PM
Last entry was freaking 2007. Crazy crazy. A lot has happened since then, I have 2 tattoo's now and am working on my third and possibly fourth. My third I want it to just say "Smile" in some nice font. If anyone wants to sketch something nice up it would be much appreciated. Also, i'm not quite sure where to put it yet. So those idea's will be helpful also. The other one will say Sing me to sleep and I need a nice font for that too. So if you're bored...

So i'm going to get a tattoo but I need to get the right design...I want a small design of a kitten curled up in a ball asleep. So anyone who reads this should submit a drawing. And If I had money I would pay you, but hey, it's still pretty cool for someone to get a tattoo of something you drew! Yay!

Tipping your waitress

Sun Apr 1, 2007, 1:57 AM
Just some bitching

So I'm a waitress...and people are fucking stupid, I don't think anyone really knows that on average waitresses/waiters make 2.50 an hour and that 2 dollar tip you leave when you're the only table in the restaurant is pretty shitty.

For those of you who don't know, the new percentage for tipping is 15% fuckers.

Alright, so I guess I'll actually explain why I'm in this frantic....

I work in a Chinese restaurant and the owner/cook doesn't speak that much English, as if it weren't bad enough, it was packed, and he doesn't know to stick to one fucking ticket, he does one dish from each ticket, then the tables of course blame the people who are serving them. IT'S NOT OUR FAULT THE FOOD DOESN'T COME OUT WHEN IT SHOULD! (about 99% of the time.) I'm the only one who fluently speaks English there so the people constantly complain that the other Chinese waiter screwed up. Alright, so here goes...


Today was general conference (I live in Utah...) and after it ended at 8, which is the time I normally leave, we get a huge wave of men in suits! I get two big tables, one of 6, one of 5 and some other tables that were 2-4 people. The guy I work with (the other Chinese guy) gets all pissed off because I took the two big tables, and I'm like "You didn't get to them fast enough, they were waiting and looking around for someone to take their order." So he was pissed, so I let him have the next two tables, and then the lady's like, "b2 is has been ready for awhile." and I thought that was his table but I took it cause he was going around with a water pitcher. So I go over and take their order. So he bitches to me about that and I'm like "They had been waiting!"

So the main reason I'm pissed off is that as I said before the cook doesn't stick to one ticket and switches back and forth so I get all the food out at different times (this is when it's really busy), which I shouldn't but I would prefer them to get it while it's hot instead of waiting for the rest of the order and letting it get cold. So I explain to the table of 6 the situation and apologized... I even gave them extra egg rolls and fried shrimp a good 8$ value. They left me a 7.00 tip on a 70$ bill. Not to mention a huge ass mess of spilled things.

But the other table of 5 thought I was an idiot or something, every time I went to the table they would ask for chopsticks and so I was going to bring them out with the meal. And it's not like I was BUSY or anything, ya know, with the 5 tables. And I walk buy one time and they said "Can we have our diet Pepsi's Now?" and gave me that look...(hello....there are about 10 tables in the restaurant.)

Another pet peeve as a server is, I'll get the food out and ask "Can I get you any sauces, some hot mustard, sweet and sour sauce, cocktail sauce?" and they reply "uh, yeah, just the sweet and sour sauce." So I smile and say "OK" and go get it, when I bring it back they say, "Oh yeah, can I get some hot mustard too?" so I smile again and go get it, I bring it to the table and they say "Can I have a small bowl of steamed rice?" It's fucking aggravating.... they make you make 4 trips to the kitchen until their happy, meanwhile the restaurant is stuffed with people and I have another 5 tables to wait on.

I'm not saying to not ask for something that you need, just don't make your server go back 3 and 4 times when they can get it all in one trip.

Basically, I'm saying be nice to your servers, if you haven't served before, it can be frustrating and hard, make sure you're patient with them as they are to you. Don't forget we bring out your food. That's not a threat from me but I've heard people tell me what they've done when people were assholes the whole time. (Be careful)

And not everyone one is mean, a lot of the people are awesome and fun to talk to but for the one's that aren't this is for you....
So please just tip well and be patient if it's busy.

(If the server is a jerk the whole time...you know. Just tip on how good the service was, not just the food, they didn't make it and you're the one who chose to get it.)
