The Collapse Of The Restaurant Industry Rant
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 вер 2024
- People are leaving the service industry because it's nothing like what shows like The Bear or MasterChef make it out to be. Also, too many people have too much knowledge about food and remember when cash tipping was a thing?

Without girlfriends and wives 85% of fine dining restaurants would go out of business
But then again, a lot of people also don’t know how to cook 😂
@@jaycho6747 Ok, but why would you go to a fine dining restaurant instead of just getting some takeout?
@@jaycho6747 has nothing to do with fine dining.
@@jaycho6747aaand
yea same for most venues
“get the girls to come & the guys will follow”
“People used to come into a restaurant and get a steak and cheat on their wife. It was nice.”
😂😂
Emphasis on “it was nice”

"the customer is always right' - this statement single-handedly ruined the restaurant industry.
Any industry. Look at gaming. We went from Laura Croft to Brokeback Bear humping in the span of a generation.
Have you seen that old clip of Marco Pierre White talking about throwing people out of his restaurant because they were disrespectful? He says he wouldn't accept them into his home, and his restaurant is his home.
@@Morale_Booster thats how it should be. either shut up and serve the customer what they want or tell them to piss off & not come back.
Anyone who says that statement in general is an idiot to me. Or "the customer comes first" That tells me that you'll take the side of some random stranger before you support an employee who's worked loyally for you for 10 years. Fuk outa here with that sheet
That’s because that quote is misused. It’s not saying “the customer can do whatever they want” it means if someone is willing to spend money on something frivolous or “stupid” then they are correct.
Example: pet rocks. Pet rocks are objectively dumb as hell but if people are willing to spend a crap ton of money on it then they are “right”. The manufacturers may think it’s dumb but “the customer is always right.”
I got into cooking ,after reading Anthony Bourdaians -Kitchen Confidential- in my early adult life , I spent 18 years honing my craft and working in the best restaurants in my city, because I wanted to. Along the way something changed, it wasn’t fun anymore and I wasn’t getting anywhere. Just felt used and abused, I used the break during Covid to get the hell out of dodge . Changing careers was the best thing that ever happened to me , now I have holidays and weekends off to spend with my family, more money with a pension at the end , and a way better quality of life. Moral of the story, don’t be afraid to jump ship if it doesn’t suit you anymore.
I started growing weed at 30 and never looked back. My old roomate is doing fine dining serving 3-5 hundo a shift 3-4 days a week. But he also works at a nursery trying to learn the trade and wants out.
What do you do now, if you don't mind me asking?
I left the USA 26 years ago. I don't miss the restaurant culture, the out of hand tipping culture, poor behavior on flights, the stroads and car necessities, paying $10 for a surupy concoction pretending to be coffee served to go in a paper/plastic cup. I don't miss any of that at all....
What did the happy people do for work after the switch?
@@thealternative9580I assume you mean growing legal weed? If you're still making enough money to survive growing illegal weed and not having to steal power or other shady things good for you.
“Black pepper is too spicy” I heard that once. Wanted to tell the lady not to eat out.
Happened to me too. Lady ordered black pepper on the salad then asked why her salad was so spicy!??
With some white people, God forbid they feel just a little bit of discomfort. Are they actually that hypersensitive or are they just babies?
Was probably Jackie from DIS Unlimited
Those people are losers
We had a regular who would order the same soup every visit and say it was too spicy. At first we replaced it then I just started going over and telling her tough, guess you shouldn’t get it. It literally just had black pepper. She died of cancer shortly after.
No one gets treated and paid worse than the kitchen staff.
California lifting restrictions on food vendors is the best thing that ever happened to me.
All I do is cook and sell.
Plus in some cases the waiting staff judges how much tips you get
@@odo27epic-cage83 Never got a single tip working in the kitchen in over a decade, the rest of the staff were making thousands in tips alone every week.
Ummm bar backs???

I always tip cash and stop doing business with places that don’t use cash.
You're doing way too much. If you're going that route, then you better start trying to abolish tipping all together
Good luck attending a concert or pro sporting event. All the venues are pretty much cashless now.
It's not the place, is the government. "Oh, you were tipped 5 dollars, we'd like our 1 dollar please." - Electronic ensures they get their cut.
@@onephatdudeWho wants to go to one of those ripoffs?
My man.
Who needs restaurants when you have ozempig?
Diarrhea, Cha Cha Cha….💩
Now imagine being a private chef for a client who has health goals and bam, Zempies gets released. You go from having carte blanche to cook whatever you want for a happy client to,
Having to create on the fly, the nouveau riche Zempies Diet where the goal is to minimize them shitting their pants, having constant nausea and still manage to get basic daily nutrients covered while the client now is absolutely disgusted by food
@@angela_apple😂😂😂😂😂Yes!!😂😂
😂
Joke will definitely be on the drug users with all the side effects and loss of all their muscle
I don’t complain when we go out but dude, restaurants suck now. The food everywhere is mostly a disappointment.
Working in a busy kitchen has got to be one of most punishing jobs. Sure you're not digging cobalt out of the ground with your bare hands in some African hell hole- but for most of us, toiling in a hot, stressful kitchen for 14 hours a day, being yelled at the whole time just sounds unthinkable. No wonder all the chefs I've ever met were psychotic.
I tended bar for 7 years and so I've spent time in kitchens. Those people are built different. I don't know how the hell they subject themselves to that level of stress, and that's saying a lot tending bar in a big city. You couldn't pay me 250k a year to work in a busy kitchen. Compliment the chefs as often as you can if you're ever out, they love to hear it.
Those cobalt mines are mostly open-pit, so they also get frsh air 24/7 and probably a siesta when the sun is at its peak too 😂
Tip pooling is illegal. The worst part of electronic tips is people don't get to leave most of their tips undeclared like they used to.
Taxes
Tip pooling is very much legal federally. State laws may vary by it’s not illegal everywhere
That's why more customers need to know to leave cash
"Illegal" mattering at an independant resturant hell even a smaller chain makes you seem wildly out of touch with the reality.
And the cost is thus transferred onto the consumer by means of those iPads that ask for 25%, 35%, or 50% tips rather than a flat 15% to 20% if service is exceptional. Literally, the consumer is being taxed by the "grid," as Tim calls it, so that the business can profit, the government can profit, and the worker can still only get a pittance of what they once received when they could, as Tim said, claim the tip was undeclared.
In essence, the system is draining everybody, consumers and workers of all our liquidity.
When I worked at Domino's as a delivery driver at 6.25/hr using my own car, they wanted to know my tips to tax me on them. If I got a cash tip, I kept my mouth shut. To be honest delivery drivers put their lives at risk and get paid like your working in a redemption center
Hell I almost got shot in an armed robbery of a commercial kitchen while working the fry line. They hired a guy that the owners son was in prison with, and surprise, he robbed the place.
@@Steve-ev6vxsame except they pissed off an employee who has unscrupulous friends.
@@Steve-ev6vxthe owner son was in prison 😂 it’s still there son
@@alexapexgod4643 But they didn't have to hire the gangbanger they where paying protection to while he was in the can did they?
Cash tips are a gift.
“Coyote ugly, look at my titsssszzz.” Tim has one of the best deliveries in the game. Appreciate you brother. You’ll have me laughing when it’s ALL burning down. 🙏🏻
🤣🤣🤣
That had me dyin laughing cuz you have to be from that era for it to really hit the way it did 😄
I don't even know we as chefs make menus anymore... Ppl come in and literally make their own dish, it's literally insane.
One of the many reasons I left the industry. People treat restaurants like their own personal chef/kitchen
@@acurry722 exactly, I work at a simple sandwich shop. We specifically just do sandwiches, yet ppl come in and ask for platters, different toppings, trying to combine two sandwiches in one. And the owner jumps through hoops for them. It's crazy 🤦🏻♂️
Yup. I would refuse constantly. I remember the last kitchen I was in there were people asking for vegan bolognese. I believe that was the breaking point for me.
Wtf thats so true
Yep main reason I left the industry. Last place I worked was a crunchy "locally sourced" sandwich/salad/soup shop, a relatively new small business with a very small kitchen. Staff shortages lead to underpaid and inexperienced employees taking on significant workload and long hours just for all of your slips to have a paragraph of red text about their allergies, preferences, hopes and dreams, etc. Before you know it nothing can be made in batches and the kitchen slows to a crawl. Nobody just orders food anymore they have to customize everything like it's a McDonalds kiosk. And your average weak-willed business owners give in immediately for fear of being Yelped poorly. You put up with these toddlers long enough and you understand why the industry is dying.
I still tip cash. Don’t let them eliminate cash in our society.
Years ago at the Italian Restaurant I used to work at we had Gluten Free Pasta as an optional substitute. It ALWAYS fucked the line because on busy nights when we were slinging easily 75-100 plates at a time, we'd have to cook it separately in a pot away from the pasta cooker where we were making normal orders. Main reason why it fucked us was that we only had 12 burners (This was a smallish - medium sized establishment that got buttfucked for dinner every night, worse on weekends) and so naturally the space fills up fast on the stove and we need every burner. Even though it was only a 10 minute cook time that space that was taken up was critical. 10 minutes is an eternity on a line during a dinner rush.
Now I work in the cafeteria at the HQ of a large company. Benefits, pay and hours are way better but Tim spoke gospel to me on the allergies. In the last few years it feels like it's gotten out of hand. I'm starting to think when half the people say they're allergic it's customerspeak for "I don't like it. It's icky."
Lol are you me? I also worked the pasta station at an Italian resturant in the Bay Area. We had a gluten free option and people always ordered it at the worst time possible. I don’t miss that. Left the industry for IT and never looked back. Now I get PTO and can sit in AC all day 😂
On another note, we had a regular that would always remind the servers that she was allergic to raw onions but cooked onions were fine. Just say you don’t like raw onions lol
Yeah, the allergy sht is out of control. 99 percent are lying.
Yup. I hate this time line of life hacks.
I worked in a 100% Gluten free eatery inside a high-end grocery store. It was hell. I couldn’t wash my uniform because if I brought it home it could “get gluten on it”. I put on and took off about 10 pairs of gloves and washed my hands each time in the span on 5 minutes. It seemed like everything I did was a potential hazard for gluten contamination.
Working in a Restaurant is great if you want to get laid. I's a cesspool where everybody sleeps with everyone. A different experience where your hate of the job and the people you serve brings the workers together.
You still need to be halfway decent looking, or at least not fat. 😂
@@Steve-ev6vx or short either. I'm 5'6 and tried getting a bar back job and everyone height shamed me.
Only white guys get away with doing stuff like that 😂😂
Waitresses do be thirsty as hell.
They are also fucking insane.
thats why people work in the industry
I worked at one of the most expensive top rated hotels / private estates in Austin and I can confirm it’s collapsing, it’s a nightmare
But that could be a good thing, to entrepreneurs out there I would like to encourage you to think of an evolution for the food in beverage world that involves barter, I have a friend who’s an incredible chef and she’s thrown these events where everyone is trading stuff rather than paying for it, cutting to the chase to to speak, the musicians wanna eat great food, the chefs wanna hear great music, the volunteer staff wants to enjoy both of those things in exchange for setting up / breaking down, I think this could be a better way to live if this style of living and trade were made common
@@kinthirteenAunt Tim is looking at you like you’re a pig right now.
People still aren’t going out because of inflation.
@@kinthirteenhow would you pay your bills? "Trade" a handjob for rent?
@@thealternative9580 that’s what I am saying, we should rework the model to benefit the most people toward good food / entertainment that can be accessed in exchange for helping with the event? That’s at least what my friend did and she said people seemed to dig it, I’m sure it could improved upon further
“You’re working at red lobster!” 😂😂
I'm tired of restaurants with the 8 hidden fees. The service change - not a tip! The health and wellness charge - not a tip!! The mandatory 20% tip and you don't know who it's going to (everyone including managers and back of house). They expect 20% when you go to the counter or get takeout. Absolutely insane.
That’s crazy where do you live?
@@youtubedrifter5594 In a city run by leftists with a high minimum wage that applies to everyone, including tipped employees. Every counter service business now does the tablet flip tip request. I'm not paying more for counter service or takeout and if I'm guilted, I won't be back. Just say no!
Health and wellness lol what a grift 😂😂
The next generation is already learning these bad habits. My 14 year old nephew quizzes the wait staff sometimes and requests 3-5 changes, and when I try to say “Just order something you know you’ll eat”, my sister tells me not to tell her child what to do.
Your sister is part of the problem and is spoiling that brat into a neurotic monster.
They do that anywhere else but America & the West and their butts are out of the restaurant/street.
Tell her I'm not a step Dad. Don't tell me what to do
@@JaredCosgrove-gg3xj meanwhile, my brother in law takes a bathroom break before the check comes hoping me or my mom cover the bill…no wonder I push for dinners at home haha
Don’t worry your nephew will learn soon enough from the outside world that thank kind of behavior isn’t appreciated
I would disown them and move on
My dad used to be a banquet chef. He developed a cocaine addiction due to the long hours and an alcohol addiction to come down from the cocaine to sleep at night.
It was already a brutal industry, now it's exacerbated by the customer base.
Cool story bro but I’m going to call my buddy whose in expert in cool stories to verify
He was an addict who had a job and did drugs.
@@Adam444Tv _Hey I'm Ted Davis, I'm a Licensed Verifier with the American Cool Story Association, and I'm here to check out a cool story today!_
I remember in high school in the late 1980's some of the older-looking classmates had waiter/waitress jobs and they made bank on nights and weekends. A lot of them paid for everything they needed just from tips working Friday and Saturday nights. Society has really changed. Back in the 80's as kids were weren't even allowed to eat at Red Lobster, the rare time we went it was for someone's graduation or special event, and we had to wear a tie and jacket.
He's absolutely right I work in a restaurant where we have a five dollar burger special and people have the nerve to ask for substitutions on it.
Nerve. No wonder restaurants fail
If you mean they're gaming the system, making the deal burger into a higher priced burger, I completely understand.
Substitutions is what killed the $1 Big n Tasty at McDonald's. People figured out they could sub it into a $3 QP with cheese, so they got rid of it prematurely.
@@cheechdubinsky6709 when you have no place left to eat in your shitville suburb you’ll get it.
I was at a local bakery where they had a burger as a special. Some chick asked to replace the relish with avocado like it is the same price.
@@thealternative9580As if we can’t go cook at home lmao
As a 20 year restaurant person FOH, I can tell you he is nailing it. It's not worth it. Ive watched it all change. The entire waiter is there 9 minutes segway nails it. We know our entire section is going to shit, we cant stop it.
I hate when waiters are too buddy with us it’s highly uncomfortable
I've cooked in a few restaurants when i was in my 20s. Lots of drugs, alcoholics, and other sins.
I DM’d Tim a while back about this. How this country is tooo free sometimes, and gave chipotle as an example. The workers need to say “no! No extra shit, that’s all the chicken you get, NEXT PERSON!”
The dining scene in Last Holiday perfectly exemplifies this.
A bunch of execs complaining about fat and butter.
In comes Queen Latifah and orders all the specials as they are.
In the back the chef is yelling his nuts off about the order from the exec table and gets handed the other order and his mood completely changes.
Such a cool comment
Still working in the industry. He’s not wrong. 😂
Get out man. What are you thinking, saidest
I’m watching this while I wait until the last minute to head into the kitchen. It sucks
This hit deep. I transitioned from service industry and it was like being in purgatory but needing to work for shit tips to afford basic needs while there.
After Anthony Bourdain murked himself the whole thing crashed.
The worst part of all of it is when the princess is done with her very difficult order and then turns around and complains and not tip! Rude is getting old! People learned to be victims bc it gets them free food! Lying thieves
For the last time, Timothy, please open a McDillon’s! Thank you, in advance!
The staff could wish you well as you collect your order.
Tended bar for 7 years and now I sell booze to bars and restaurants. Bidenomics and the price of food/drink is out of control. Getting wings used to be something I'd do on the way home, now it's something I do on my birthday to treat myself. I'll be out of a job soon enough and then I'm moving into the woods because this country is depressing the shit out of me. Vote Trump.
Bidenomics lol are you delusional? Have fun in the woods you're doing society a favor
I was making 2.75 an hour and a thousand dollars a week in the early oughts
Yup. And the sad thing you see nowadays are the older Millennials who had to keep their bartending job a lot longer because it was the only thing available after the recession that would pay the bills. There are a lot of 40 year old bottle service thots still on the hustle out there. And that's part of what you're seeing now too are these older career hospitality workers who got through the recession and then covid and are quitting to take an entry level sales job.

Tim Dillon, for the love of comedy please don't succumb to the "BLEEP" machine mandate. Otherwise you too will be joining the collapse movement. If they don't like to hear certain words you say then they can go somewhere else. I hope we won't have to pay to hear people cussing. Sometimes it is part of what makes something funny.
He wants the most money. Watch the long form full episode and it doesn't bleep
He's right about the customer owning the restaurant. When I was 12 I wanted like 3 different things off a red lobster menu but didn't want all 3 of the meals so the dude literally came out with a pencil and notepad and worked out a total price on 4/6 things I wanted as 1 meal. Bro I would of slapped myself back then today. Chef there had the patience of a saint.
This could literally be stand-up material. He just riffs for hours
That's how he creates a lot of his comedy
His stand up literally is just lame podcast bits
In the movie “waiting…” they’re working at shenanigans lol
Everyone's an asshole nowadays, on both sides of the table. It's over - it's done.
I think people are leaving cause there is a lot of wage theft by restaurant owners and managers
Watch the documentary 'Hey Bartender' its a good one.

Tim is correct I have met more than a couple of people who worked in restaurants because of their love for reality TV 😅
It's a nightmare
Are you serious? I bet it wasn’t so nice once they started 🤣
This is actually true lol
Im 28 with a masters degree in economics. I paid for all of my schooling serving and bartending. I also still bartend because i make more than any job i can find. If you find a good serving or bartend gig, you can work 4-10pm 5 days a week like me, and make around 60-80 an hour. Now obviously some gigs are horrendous. Corporate places usually suck. You need to find a place to get into that is a local hangout bar/restaurant and always steadily busy. I sometimes hate it, but i cant justify leaving while sometimes making 500 in 6 hours
I remember going to our local Benihanas (hibachi style restaurant) as a kid and the experience was amazing. You ate what the chef gave you.
Went back a couple years ago, and nobody was watching the chef. There was a lady at the end of our table who had a headset talking to her friend the whole time. When the presentation was over and the chef gave a bow before trying to leave, the lady with the headset snapped her fingers at him and asked to recook her fried rice but with extra butter. The chef did as she asked.
I never went back.
The online reviews have also ruined the restaurant industry.
“Got diabetes?! Take an insulin shot and order that mega chocolate volcano right after! Live on the edge a little!!”TD
Definitely leave cash. And make sure the right person gets it. 💯🤘
It’s way funnier to imagine Tim doing this in a restaurant over something so trivial 😂😂
You are so out of touch on this Dillan. Stay in your lane bro. Just keep being funny and rich. But super out of touch rant. Also, who are you talking to? The people in the restaurant industry? Because we know what it is. LOL.
I’m 50 years old instead of being a mechanic or a welder I became hairstylist because well I’m I was a good looking guy. It was good at bullshitting women so is a natural fit. It was great had sex with lots of amazing women my clients and staff. The fact is no matter how I was to cut your hair or any of my staff was to cut your hair if you’re a overweight, obese woman with no neck and you expect to be a supermodel good luck on that one and I loved. I enjoy telling women and firing clients as I had a very long waitlist to get into my services and my salon, I love pissing off rich, fat people that mom and dad gave them money.! I loved pissing off fat, entitled women that were middle-aged Karen’s they was in and say I want to have an appointment with Chris and not realize it was free referral and the reception. Sometimes we screw up and they come and sit in my chair and I say sorry I can’t do your hair because you didn’t have a referral and you are not attractive enough for me to do your hair. I can’t make you good looking, nothing can no one can you’re unrealistic with your dreams and goals change your genetics, get taller thinner and more beautiful and younger. I would say these things and it was so fun I miss those days.
You can’t make unattractive women attractive it’s a genetic look at the draw! I love and I miss the woman with a potato head and no neck that would show me a picture a beautiful woman like Charlie Theron with a neck can you give me a Bob then after you gave her a haircut she’s like well, how come it touches my shoulders because you have a potato head and you have no neck and your 5 feet tall and you’re 250 pounds obese and fat I would love to say these things and I have said these things many times too many women and it was such a amazing revelation to these women they thought a haircut and some make up to make them look beautiful! A potato a potato is a potato !!🥔 youth is beauty Karen’s and can only hold for so long
Your a fuckin sociopath lmao

Bartending was the best job ever when I was 22.
Bro same! It’s the greatest college job there is. But his point about cash tip is spot on. That would hurt today

Drinking was even better then.
Bartending is pretty sweet as long as you advance to luxury hotels and fine dining. I couldn’t be my age (45) in a fucking Outback or Red Lobster.
Well yeah cause your probably like 50 or 60 😂 when people actually had disposable money
Anthony Bourdain is still hanging in there.
boom
Corporate america and greed destroyed the restaurant industry. Tim is describing annoyances by customers in all industries.
I was a line cook for 20 yrs, those cooking shows irritate me. Unwatchable. And you're right Tim it is HELL. The work is hard but at least you will get to live in grinding hopeless poverty.
The 2008 era is over, its dystopia time zoomers and boomers are not a good thing for a country
What a negative outlook on things
@@slimdaniels3322you must be new here
@slimdaniels3322 it's not just in my head, it's apparent day to day. He'll you can even use the Google Street view if you think I'm larping.
Go back in time and see for yourself, I guess I'm glad to have at least experienced 2000-2010. It will never recover now...
@@Day-dreamer488 you’re not gonna convince me to have a negative outlook on life buddy. Nice try tho. I hope your day gets better!
@@slimdaniels3322 I am positive. I just tell the truth
Restaurant industry as a whole is fucked. Unless your a food truck or an extremely successful dining establishment that repeatedly seats all of it's tables, you're losing money. It's a dumb business.
You won't live the bartender movie life, but if you're a good looking guy you can get part of the way there. If nothing else you take home a bunch of the female coworkers and some customers who are cougars. It can be fun but you'll also have to bust your butt. Regulars help a lot too, those 50% tips are welcomed.
Yeah my better looking coworkers were having way more fun and making way more money.
bro ide hit the pub and order a massive 8 dollar hot pretzel and a beer. bro, same fucking place, same fucking pretzel, its now 23 fucking dollars. for a fucking, for a goddamn mother fucking pretzel.
God dude bring me back to the porch days
I left Culinary Industry cause it’s dominated by Illegal workers 😂
Gordon Ramsey has actually showed this reality , which i appreciate
I’m 27, I’ve worked off and on in the food business for my whole adult life, (and also doing other things, but kept ending up in that vicious cycle.) 3 months ago I started a new job where I’m so much happier. I have weekends off for the first time ever, holidays off, not in a hot kitchen 12 hours at a time, have my nights, get paid better for my work and don’t have to deal with the people. I don’t miss it. The customers ruined the food industry (baby boomers especially)
This motivated me to become a bartender. I didn’t think I had what it takes but Tim makes me feel like my mediocrity might be just enough to get the job
It's not that hard
If you find the right place it can be an awesome gig
Yes the substitutions of the dish! And the 9 min at the table! So damn truuuuuueeee 😅 Hell yeah Tim!
HIGH ENERGY COSTS have the potential to ruin the restaurant industry
Tim is just so right about everything. Growing up on Long Island is an amazing education as long as you are an information sponge like he is. I’m the same age as him and I’m sure that we ended up at the same party/bar growing up lol
Line cook of 6 years trained by 3 chefs. This shit blows hot ass, Showing this rant to management at my work and then the owners 🤣. The lunatics run the asylum
Leave cash people. Please.
Me and my elderly grandparents were kicked out of a restaurant in 2020 for not being able to provide medical proof of the Vax. It was a humiliating experience I've never forgotten. As far as I'm concerned, the entire industry and go bust!
I’m glad you weren’t allowed in. Get over it.
@@jimjiminy5836boot licker
@@jimjiminy5836no
It honestly doesn't sound like that big of a deal but being the drama queen you are, it got your bloomers in a bunch
That was a state law not a restaurant policy. Not sure why you’re mad at the restaurant for that.
Not being a chef was the best decision of my life.
I was in at the peak, after bartending lol....cooking is worse hours, worse pay, worse life, drinking for pain, psychotic creepy owners who bounce checks
My partner was a bartender in the 90's - made $300 a night in tips. Seattle. Rent was $400 - so made rent in practiacallly one night - the average was $300. Now same person is unemployed - and people think things are better now? Was a bartender for almost 20 yuears - 90's through 2000's.
Ya, gay bars tip well, especially back then ;)
I make 65 k a year working 25 hrs a week as a server
@@georgec5212 That's great. I've had good restaraunt jobs but I do think there are less of those good jobs now, in this industry.
As a food and beverage worker for the last 45 years I can testify with expert certainty that this is all true. Props. Respect. Keep telling these truths.
about "95" seems it became impossible to stop at a fast food in 20 min. I haven't had the time for "fast food" since.
Hollywood made jail look sexy, what did you expect ? 🤷♂️
Trump literally said today he’s going to do away with taxing on tips. Crazy.
Review sites killed it too. Everyone is a food critic.
My rist job at 16 was Taco Bell at a mall in CT (1997) during high school. And that was my last food industry job. Not the same as a restaurant but working in the food industry turned me off from that type of work. Bless the food industry workers.
The French have it right. Servers get a salary, they just ask what do you want? Give it to you and shut it. No tipping.
Two of our band members serve at Capital grille. It’s a fun and rewarding job. You just need to know your stuff.
You should just eat microwave beans and fish like Tim Dillon. And if the can explodes, it explodes. Stop complaining.
Coyote Ugly messed up a lot of girls in their 20s. Just glad there wasn’t a service industry show about strippers or PS. My ex girlfriend would be on that realty trend super quick.
Restaurant jobs are good if you are a felon or drug addict. If you are a skilled cook, bartender, or server, you'll always have work. Not great pay, especially kitchen work.
You were cooking... too bad you only hit the FOH/customer part of the restaurant. BOH gets far worse and it gets juicier.
I hate the rockstar/heroin addict/alt lifestyle idea of chefs. Make the fckin food and shut up, get wasted on your own time. Do what you gotta do so you don't get the shakes,but we don't care man. If you wanted to express your soul,you should've learned to play an instrument.
And i love cash. I still put money in pocket
20 bucks ..for kfc meal...25 for wendys combos...
17 for McDonald's meal...
Chilli's 30
Olive garden 20 for meal...
Tim is 1000% right.
I just realized the car dearlerships and the food industry are two sides of the same coins when it comes to toxicity (functioning addicts, alcoholics, and more).
The people who actually work there isn’t because they think it’s cool, no! It’s because they’re trying to afford rent! Because their day job doesn’t cover the bills!
This just isn't true. I worked into restaurants up until last year. Great money and vibe. I just quit cause of the schedule.
