@@uuuultrawhat are you talking about? The customers? I’m a millennial but I would say z would probably be more sober than what I’ve seen in the past at Waffle House. They don’t even drink much less come in really f’ed up and act out
I worked door Corp on the weekends for our waffle house when I was 15, about 22 years ago. Opened doors, got coffee, Bussed tables, etc. Other waffle houses in our area didn't have it though.
I’ve been to Waffle Houses in at least 5 states in the southeast US. I saw a Door Corpsperson once. I was so anxious about the thought of her walking behind the counter, lest the entire staff jump her and drag her into a back room for a beating, that I couldn’t enjoy my food. NEVER GO BEHIND THE COUNTER.
Close the blinds so they don't know the wait is 90 minutes... but not late at night, those guys are drunk and need to see the light so they know we're open
I like going to waffle house for exactly the opposite of everything this video portrayed! When I go into a waffle house, I want to hear the waitress and the cooks talking about all their personal problems, complaining about the new person who called off sick, forgetting half the order, and insulting each other!
yeah before both political parties started spending without abandon and printing money like it grows on trees the working class could afford housing beyond rentals.
@@uuuultra HAHAHAHa i'm not your fking friend you wool eyed commie. how is the money printing thing going for US inflation? i mean we can end all poverty by printing money right? and put illegal immigrants in $5,000 a month motel rooms in nyc
If I was getting this job I'd hate this video, but sitting at home stoned, well lets just say I'm on my third video taking mental notes and smiling. Also at our waffle house our door greeters are called bouncers and the coffee bar over by the bathrooms holds the mop bucket and yellow slip and fall sign.
I'll never forget when I was young, my mother, a waitress her entire life and worked at WH for years, needed a job because we were a military family and moved a lot. One day, after a recent move, I was about 9. We went to a WH, I got a waffle, and she went behind the counter without saying a word to anyone and started taking orders and refilling coffee, calling them out perfectly. She got the job immediately.
I was a door corp/host for 4 years, pretty rough job I’ll say. When the location I worked at used to have free coffee while you waited, people sure liked to abuse it
Uhm… where are the drunks nodding out at the table? The crackhead in the parking lot trying to sell you a broken cassette tape player? The server with jail house tattoos saying “I love Clem ❤?” Waffle House is gritty my friend… embrace it.
@@-iIIiiiiiIiiiiIIIiiIi- You're not breaking anything to me "bud." I was simply commenting on how Waffle House is at least making an effort to treat their people right considering the work and economic conditions. I wouldn't call what I listed slave wages. Are you at least grateful that I gave you a break from smelling your own farts?
@@kitchentrout5867 manager said that was a lie just to get you to come in and apply those wages are for people who have been working at Waffle House for years
I sure wish Waffle House was west of the Rockies. I've never been disappointed, and I've visited ones in Georgia, Tennessee, Texas, and Missouri while on business trips.
I guess I’ve seen this on a Sunday randomly on occasion during breakfast. I always thought it was the regional manager checking things out and helping bc it was busy. Never had a clue they had a door corps,… ummm but a coffee bar? No.
As a long time WH customer (45 yrs), who eats there at all hours, though mostly later than 1:30 am, I've never encountered the "Door Corp". I've eaten at WH restaurants throughout the entire Southern US. My favorite thing about the WH experience was playing Waffle House songs on the jukebox.
This my favorite breakfast place unfortunately I live in. Minnesota so we don't have them but when I travel where there are Waffle houses eating there is a must everything and everywhere I have had a super experience with super friendly staff that have been there for many years.if people are treated with respect they will remain as loyal employees this shows that job satisfaction is more important than salary.
Sitting at the bar at a Waffle House is the poor man's version of Benihana's. I love just watching them cook. Oh, this is the first time I've ever heard of or seen a "Door Corps".
I moved to the west coast as an adult, and I still think about Waffle House all of the time. Hanging out next to the cook and wait staff was the best, especially after a late night. Sometimes I’d play Magic: the Gathering with friends until like 3 in the morning, as we kept ordering food all night. I miss those times and the food.
Drunk, late night, maybe even tripping on something. I cared nothing as long as they gave me some food stuff. 3:36, man save some for the rest of us mullet man!
Waffle House employment; fun conversations: “bitch where my eggs?!?” “ni**a I tol you, I ain’t got yo money!” Customer relations: fights, fights & more fights!
This reminds me of new employee videos I watched in the late 90's at jobs i had just started, all of them which paid the same $8 an hour no matter what it was...
i've never had bad service at a waffle house to be honest, and the food isn't bad for the price, get your hashbrowns scattered smothered covered and peppered!
Have you ever been driving hungry late at night and see the waffle house sign from the highway and say "hell i aint going over there at this hour" Not closing the blinds on 3rd shift must have to do with holdups.
I went into the local Waffle House in Taylorsville Indiana not long ago,and received rotten service,the waitress stood directly across from where I was sitting,just straighten up the glasses and plates, ignoring me the entire time,didn't even offer to take my order,so after about ten minutes or so I got up and walked out, haven't been back since.
I really like waffle house. I've never been offered coffee while waiting for table. And workers now have new uniforms. They shouldn't have changed classic look.
Never leave the building. Never ever step behind the counter. Neverv ever clean the bathrooms. Your job is standing by that door! "Door Corp" were professional assholes back in the day. I honestly hate this video. The people who did this as a job must have been so insufferable to work with.
Clearly the corporate trainers haven’t ever been to an actual Waffle House.
Remember this video was made before Gen Z
We should get them drunk and take them to a Waffle House after the bars have closed…
idk about you buddy but most of the people i see workin at the waffle house are Gen X and older@@uuuultra

"Never close blinds during third shift" Sounds so much like an eerie warning in a horror movie.
That's so they can know when the police arrive to break up the massive fight happening in the dining room
5 Nights at Waffle House
I have never had a door opened for me at a Waffle House, nor have I ever seen or heard of a "coffee bar".
Lmao. Right! Same here.
Only in the high volume stores
I worked door Corp on the weekends for our waffle house when I was 15, about 22 years ago. Opened doors, got coffee, Bussed tables, etc.

It’s a door corps position

outdated. no basic self defense course
The wait staff isn't tatted up enough.
"We never let a customer get away" Hell yeah Waffle House take no prisoners
“After they eat, all of our customers become customary employees until we deem fit for a suitable release.”
They left off the ending to that sentence: "we never let a customer get away.....without crippling indigestion and explosive diarrhea"
As Jim Gaffigan says, "never been to a waffle house? Just picture a gas station bathroom that serves waffles"
Being a former employee of Waffle House I shouldn't have laughed so hard at that joke
That depends on the store!
here i am on thanksgiving break 10pm, watching obsolete Wafflehouse training videos.
NEVER LET A CUSTOMER GET AWAY
Close the blinds so they don't know the wait is 90 minutes... but not late at night, those guys are drunk and need to see the light so they know we're open
Especially if they didnt pay! lol

....without indigestion and diarrhea

And when you go to the next WH down the road you pick up on the same conversation.
You know it!! Just spent a week in Nashville TN and wouldn't have it any other way 😂
Soooooo every restaurant in America?
Gotcha. 😉
Got to love these corporate "perfect situation" videos that never happens.
That's how they get you stay
That'd be the cleanest Waffle House I've ever seen. And they forgot to make sure the light bulb was out in at least 1-2 of the letters of their sign.
There was a time when a Door Corpsman could afford a small house on their wages.
yeah before both political parties started spending without abandon and printing money like it grows on trees the working class could afford housing beyond rentals.

I love tipping the Waffle House waitress at least 40%.
Good for you. They're women who work very hard for very little pay. They deserve a generous tip.

I always slide more than the tip in with a Waffle House waitress
This is really good acting. 🤣

In Texas, Waffle House is its own FDA nutritional food group. 🏋♂️🥇🏆
I’m supposed to be watching corporate videos for a new job I was hired at, but instead I’m watching this.
Get minimum wage to open the door and point people to the coffee at waffle house, then be told to smile 💀.
So this was back when Waffle House was still trying to compete with IHOP before they gave up & went full Battle Royale seating.
I sure wish Waffle House was west of the Rockies. I've never been disappointed, and I've visited ones in Georgia, Tennessee, Texas, and Missouri while on business trips.

Last time I went to a WH, they no longer had the steak and eggs breakfast on the menu. That was my favorite.
the whole bit about following a customer.. and never let a customer get away gives off serial killer vibes
being a door Corp is better then being a waitress
Except you work 8 days out of the month. Maybe more depending on the holiday.
I love door Corp
I'm a door Corp at my waffle house and including can smile but have to wear A Mask 😷 due to coronavirus but how much do you Actually get paid
It’s been a long time since Waffle Crib was ran like this portrayal.

Savor that good memory
I can't find the latest orientation videos from 2014. I started waffle house as a second job today and i really want my friends to see these videos.
In the '90s. I remember us going to Waffle House @ 2AM and waiting for an open table.
Now it's a lawless oasis
0:24 That 80s intro blend edit to the music, classic lol
They need to update their training video. I work there and was sent to MMA training camp followed by hostage negotiation classes.

In other words, be a perky little chipmunk for $7.25 hr.

I'm British and have always dreamed of having breakfast in a Waffle House. Then I read the comments on here.
Can’t get no further than six foot from the door! What is this? A labor camp.
I've been to a Waffle House. There was NO ONE at the "Door". Girl, I had sit down and almost pour the coffee myself.
Every time I go to Waffle House the employees are yelling at each other
Back in the day when people wanted to work.
Decades of stagnant wages has that affect
For the most part a lot of good ideas. 🌈
And where is this fantasy restaurant?
It’s good to know that if the blinds are closed, the place is too crowded.
Waffle House don't seem like this..People have become less Quality.
There’s still places like this. The dream ain’t dead just yet.
Probably because people are getting paid peanuts and barely surviving. Care to tip them more?
I wonder if any of the people in this video have watched this
Door Duty and wearing a shirt/tie. What a joke roflmao
How come the thumbnail is that of the pretty white girl and not the Nubian Queen?
So dudes can glam it up? 🤔
