Rudeness

Some people are so rude, it's unbelievable.

In the hospitality industry, just because you say "thank you" repeatedly to the waiter/waitress doesn't mean you can tip any less or be incredibly rude when ordering. It's definitely appreciated saying thank you and please. It is a myth that we spit in food or do something on purpose to hurt the meal or drink they are ordering. I have never seen it happen in my workplace and it is hard running around trying to make sure everyone gets what they ordered correctly in a timely fashion. But please don't come in with an attitude, like we are beneath you and treat us as servants. There is no such thing. Everyone should be respected and especially those who are trying to earn. This isn't my career, but in my restaurant, I feel extremely sad for those who work jut as hard but don't make as much. the bus boys. They're incredibly decent, and for them this is a living. Also, it takes some serious skill to always greet and serve with a smile after being on your feet for 14 hours without sitting down and not eating much, dealing with rude and disrespectful customers.
