I love that name
LMFAOO
Ugh that is the worst 🤦🏿♂️
Yeah that is the WORST!! I am a 16 year old busser girl... I help the waitresses set tables and get drinks.... I hate when they do that or when I am busy and they are busy on there phone and won't tell me what they want to drink.. 5 MINUTES LATER THEY SAY I WANT WATER NO ICE AND 7 LEMON WEDGES
😂😂😂
And there’s me: I won’t ask for anything for fear of being annoying.
Annoying people exist. Asking for something is fine. Servers only really get annoyed when people ask for more than the average person and then tip less than the average person.
There are high maintanence people at my bar. If they tip 20%, IDC if they ask for anything their heart desires.
But if theyre high maimtenence and tip 10%, Im gonna remember that, since I have to tip out bussers 4% of everything sold, drink runners 4% of drinks (including refill costs, despite making nothing on them, food runners 5% of food, and bartenders 4% of drinks.
If somebody tips less than 10%, I literally lose money by having them.
Dont fear asking for things. Just dont go out to eat if you cant tip a server for the best service of your life, because one day youll get it, and people who stiff then are remembered for years).
Same 😶😶😂😂
haha thats so relatable

I once had a panic attack because I felt pressured to have a steak remade because it was overcooked 😂
I was fine with how it was but I had it remade anyways
"STOP SHOWING US THE FOOD IN YOUR MOUTH!!"
two seconds later:
"We walk over when you have food in your mouth on purpose"
Katie Runyon we just want the nod not a sentence and if you really want to verbally respond then put your hand in front of your mouth like a civilized human being
I just tell them, 1 sec, then I finish chewing my food, then I reply..
it's better than them coming over asking how my food soon after I start to eat
Or don't chew with your mouth open??
@@samanthahillshafer you didn't get that,,,, they're trying to speak while chewing cuz of the waiter and not just chewing with their mouths open
Gluten allergy at a pizza place "I'll just get you ice cubes" *most deadpan delivery* 🤣🤣🤣
Daisy Brianna lol
I worked at dominos and they had gluten free pizza bases so
I almost spit out my food I laughed so hard.
😂😂
So many pizza places have gluten-free pizza bases now, i didn't quite get that example.
WHEN PEOPLE COME IN 5 MINS BEFORE CLOSING......
Or when you just locked things up and they come pounding at the door, and beg endlessly until they give up, and leave bitching and moaning, or you give in and havr to stay there for two hours until they leave.
AND GET THEIR STEAK WELL DONE!!
xocheerle6 i work at a fast food restaurant so i just tell people “that’s gonna have to be to go :-)” if they come in at about 15 minutes before close lol.
My dad
I'm a cashier. Trust me, you're not alone. They do it to us, too, and they'll even show up after the register is closed down.
"Hey I'm gonna get this and that and a couple of those."
Through the glass: "Sorry, we're closed."

"Okay, have a good night!"

I READ THAT EXACTLY WHEN HE WAS SAYING IT
Elie K. Lol
that happens to me every time 😂
same
As a server i have to say there are rude ass people but waving us down or not remembering my name isn't exactly rude i mean i can't remeber every customers name and i sure as hell don't remeber servers names unless i regularly see them every week
TheBobtheturtle lol why would anyone remember their servers name, its weird af to call a waiter by its name lol, and the waiving thing i think its perfectly fine, i think its a way to make the server know that you have already chosen the food or that you want the check. Usually in my country we only waive when we want the check and commonly waiters will know that u are asking for the check so they will automatically go to make the check. Anyway sometimes they take a really long time and literally end up forgetting
My dad does that and it’s so weird and the servers are sometimes taken aback.
This! How are you suppose to flag a server down if you need something or a check? I thought waving was the most polite thing to do.
Shade Empress yeah i didnt like when my dad did that but now i just don’t care tough i don’t do it lol
My dad calls some severs by the name but we have been going to that place every week for as long as the place has been open which is about ten years
Their pet peeves are valid but all this video did was make me even more anxious about eating at restaurants
You shouldn't. I promise you not all servers are this extreme about their pet peeves. If you're nice to us, I PROMISE you, we will respond with the same amount (if not more) kindness. We LOVE sweet customers. We adore patience. It's perfectly okay to flag us down or raise your hand as we're passing by (at least for me it is) If you need something. It's our job, trust me we don't care.
youre the one that searched it
Don’t feel anxious at all!! All we ask is that you’re polite and respectful. Even if something is wrong please don’t be afraid to let us know. We will always do everything we can to make sure you have a decent experience and as long as you’re polite everything will be fine!!
If you tip well (20%) and try to be polite servers wont mind you. Mainly, order off the menu, don't complain, be quiet, tip well, and leave at an appropriate time (1h 30min). Servers will be happy. If you have a good server, tell the manager. You can ask your server for the manager, or ask another employee. Always preface it with "I'd like to compliment you/my server to the manager. The manager will walk out shortly excited to hear from you. If you have a complaint a manager will begrudging approach you.
Just be respectful leave a tip we would love to have you back if you do that
"I'M gonna speak to my manager."
Oh how the tables have tabled.
Maham Hameed yes
i didn't know waving was annoying.. sometimes they really don't pay attention and it's better than just screaming.
WearyStrawberry especially if they are walking by
It doesn't bother me as a server at all but I suppose it can be bothersome to others during really busy shifts
Just wait till they pass ur table...I promise you you’ll only wait no more than 5 min
Exactly, like wtf else are we supposed to do if they havent come back in so so long???
I'm not going to stop waving. Sorry. I smile while doing it and say thank you!
As a person who's worked as a server, I think it's fine if they wave you down politely...They shouldn't have to do that in the first place...
Yeah but when they’re practically falling out of their chair, gesticulating and waving with both arms (after just having sat down), it’s a different story
Someone didn’t spend a majority of their shifts tryna escape for a cigarette and flirting w the cooks lmao
Anna Woodland wow, I wish we had cooks worth flirting with. There must be a special sort where you work
The part that’s gets me is when a guest wave me down and I am not there server,,, or I drop off another servers food and they ask me to get them every thing,, I’m like your server will be right over
On the subject of tipping: They don't tip overseas! The restaurants pay their servers living wages! So if it is a tourist and they don't tip you, cut them some slack! I tip (minimum 20 percent but usually 25 percent) but I hate that the system is being gamed in such a way that the customer ends up helping the server make ends meet instead of the employer just paying a decent wage! Same goes for cab drivers or any other job where "tipping" helps the worker make ends meet!
KatKMeanders I’m in the UK and we definitely do tip over here. Not as much and there’s no rule regarding percentage but in my experience most people tip at least a bit
KatKMeanders people should do more research on where they are going. I feel like some people just don’t care to know how other people’s systems work.🤷🏽♀️
@@francesca1687 where abouts r u from? I'm from Birmingham and ive also been London and Oxford a lot and no requirements for tipping anywhere...especially as much as America where it's like a 20% tip
eseudeo tea Outskirts of Birmingham. And yeah, there’s no real set rules or anything but most people will at least leave a token, more out of social pressure from not looking like a stinge in front of your family/friends xx
@@francesca1687 I live in Japan, they will chase you to give you the money you left behind. Even if it is 50yen ($0.50).
Hi my name i- DIET COKE.. I LOST IT
DIET COKE
Stfu
Excuse me?
hailey rae why though
ITS TOO REAL THO
I wonder how these servers are as customers.
lifeisablessing. They tip well I guarantee
lifeisablessing they are the best guest another server can have!
The EASIEST customers and BEST tips
I've been a server, and as a customer I am patient if the restaurant is busy, tip very well unless the server is being exceptionally rude, and always try to be nice to them because I know the stress that comes with being a server
We usually are the ones that tip the most. Even when I eat at the restaurant I work at I tip well beyond 20%. I even clean up and pile dishes to ease their job.
This happens ALL the time:
"Are y'all ready to order?"
"Yeah I think so!"
"OK whoever wants to start go ahead :) "
.....crickets......
And then they start asking you questions like, they weren't ready at all
As a Resturant server, I couldn't agree more. Some people are just so rude it's unbelievable. Like, were you never taught how to act and interact with people appropriately?
Worker-"Hi my name is-"
Costumer-"DIET COKE"
Worker-"😑"
😂😂😂😂
As someone from England, I will never understand America’s tipping system, it’s sad that people don’t get payed enough so they have to get people who don’t employ them to pay them enough to live comfortably. Here we tip £5 - £10 on average, I think tipping over £100 seems crazy! But then again that’s common in America and I get that the minimum wage is not even enough to live on.
£100($127) isn't a common tip in America at most restaurants the largest you'll get is about $20. $5-$10 is the average here too.
The tips here are typically 20% of your meal cost.
I don’t tip at all in the UK, they never ask for it.
Also, why should I? You’re supposed to be paid by your employer, I’m not responsible for your salary.
If they have a problem with that, mabye they should get a better job?
Cookie K Ig it’s just different in the us. Yes, the employers should pay better, but they never will, that’s why we tip. It’s just how it is 🤷🏼♀️
TheUglyDuckling If you can’t afford to tip, don’t go out to eat, it’s as simple as that 🤷🏼♀️
I always tip at least 20-25% and I know how important it is to tip, but I would MUUUUCH rather restaurants just increased their prices by 20% and paid the servers a reasonable wage.
You don't rralize that the average quality of service would drop because they would still be getting paid the same if they're not nice or smile. Look at a lot of customer service jobs that don't get tips i.e cashiers.
also, you shouldn't always tip. Tip accordingly to how good service really was. I'm a server btw
In the UK, servers do just as good of a job and we aint tipping nobody!
Unfortunatly that's unrealistic. The system has been this way for far to long. You have to factor in food cost and waste pay for cooks, dishwashers, prep cooks, bakers, host, managers etc. Etc. Not everyone would have the same mind set ethier. If a pasta dish that used to cost 13.00 suddenly cost 27.00 (which it would HAVE to increase that much in order to compensate for the now higher wage every server in the restaurant is making) people would be outraged. Resturant would close and be a thing of the past. Paying servers 2.80 an hour is a big part of how restutants stay open
I lived in Europe (Germany) for 3 years and I realize that it seems that literally every other developed country pays their waiters and waitresses enough that they don’t need to be tipped.
When the 6 year old has A HUGE IPad and they are playing T.V. HELLA LOUD
i would like this but it’s at 69 likes do
"What else am i supposed to give you? Ice cubes." 😂😂😂
I feel like that's something Gordon Ramsay would say XD
this is honestly rly rude tho :/
My step-brother has Celiac Disease, my family always make sure ahead of time to make sure he has something to eat. Sometimes it sucks but its common sense.
Suuuuuper rude to be upset with someone for having an allergy. Most of the time pizza restaurants will advertise gluten free pizza or say they can accommodate an allergy that they can't.
the only reason i liked the video 😂😂😂
I tip well but idk I could never be a waitress. Customers are rude af. Seriously.
I can’t understand people anyways, if I had them clicking at me I’d be fired at every server job going
Why do yall even tip the get fuckin paid cause it’s a fuckin job
@@ivikpetersen8477 Because tipping is basically their salary.
Arctic Ivik because they make a lot of their money from TIPS you idiot and don’t get paid much besides their tips!!
Artmiese 💋Elizabeth we live in nz we don’t get tipped at alll
Something I’ll never forget is when I was a server , and when my two costumers sat down in my section I asked them if they needed anything , and the lady goes “oh you don’t have to keep asking me if I need anything I will let you know ok “ and she was so rude about it. I ignored her for the remainder of her stay.
Props to her for calling him out on his "lucky" remark 6:09
How's that bad? I consider that a compliment.
@@JTmaxx your not OK in the head
@@JTmaxx you can tell his remark had good intentions behind it. However as a woman, unwelcome and persistent interest can feel threatening very quickly. We are used to “watching our backs” so to speak. Whereas men aren’t in many cases. So the idea of someone flirting with you on the job probably is nice for a guy
"Do you want some more waaaater?" .-.
Rene' Craig Yes please!
My mum told to never p*ss off a server
Ishan Ali Mm sureee
Ishan Ali I see u literally everywhere
Ok, wanna save SOME likes for us? 😕
Or they’ll spit in your food
My dad told me that because he said they might poison ur food or do something weird to it
My family is always very nice to servers, my brother always puts all the plates and silverware together and the garbage as well. Sometimes my family gets annoyed with him but he is just making their jobs easier, so yeah. That’s for serving ppl and dealing with their sh*t!!
Thank your brother! When you’re busy, it makes such a difference :)
This video just made me insecure about eating in restaurants
Malaika Tah just treat people like you want to be treated
Malaika Tah just be nice and leave a fat tip. Trust me you WILL be remembered and prioritized
imagine the insecurity about depending on the kindness of strangers for your income.
Woman : *Gets harassed at work*
Man: damn u lucky I don't get hit on at work :/
I hope your saying women just complain because obviously a man would like it
Owen Brookshire i’m guessing you’ve never been sexually harassed? because it is not enjoyable whatsoever
@@Liftedpeace61 Man would like it? You are so ignorant and fool. NOTHING FORCEFULLY IS ENJOYABLE.
@@nataliew.1206 Someone attempting to flirt with you =/= sexual harassment
@tjašikaThen let them get mad. If you don't want to get hit on at WORK then maybe don't WORK at a crowded public place filled with drunk guys specifically looking to hit on women in a job that demands interaction.
I will never understand the tip culture in the USA.. a restaurant is a service business like many others, good service is literally the job. Consumers shouldn't have to carry the restaurant's owner's responsibility. Restaurants - PAY YOUR WORKERS DECENTLY. Waiters - Start unions and/or demand appropriate legislation. Tips around the rest of the world are earned from an exceptional attention, good service is expected by default. Tipping can be even viewed as disrespectful in some places. The reason why decent wages in this industry are rare is due to workers getting used to the almost forced down tipping system that can lead to crazy sporadic income if the restaurant has a high influx of customers.
i know its insane the way they are in the US!
Amen!!
-
It started during the great depression, I believe. Restaurants couldn't afford to pay their waiters so they shifted blame to customers if their waiter went home with barely enough money for essentials like food and clothes. Nowadays waiters and waitresses are allowed to get paid as little as roughly $2/hr (depending on what state) and tips are expected to make up the difference to equal minimum wage. While it is unfair that service workers arent paid enough, and while service workers and employers are trying to fix legislation its not immediate. In the meantime please TIP YOUR SERVERS!
I'd never get it too
“what im supposed to give u, ice cubes?”
No, you're supposed to give me some respect. YOur restaurants lack of putting that information on the menu ahead of time is not my fault.
People who have said any negative things have clearly never been a server/bartender.
Brianna Fure fact
So true I’m seeing these people saying snapping at people isn’t rude, or working in a restaurant isn’t hard. Clearly you haven’t worked in one or you would know the disastrous people you have to work with, like have some respect seriously, when I worked in a restaurant I worked very hard and snapping or waving is so rude, Trust me I see you, I just have other people to serve other than you so if you can just be patient I will get to you. These comments frustrate me so much
Dealing with the public is always difficult; however, you knew what you sign up for when you decided to be in this line of work
Ok, just as a person with a lot of allergies, we're not trying to be difficult. Most of the time we were dragged to a restaurant with family and we just want to get out of there because we know that you're annoyed at us.
As a server I honestly don't have a problem when people have allergies. I get it, you're gluten intolerant but you like pizza, that's not a crime. It pisses us off when people change around every single aspect of their meal because of some diet trend. If you have an actual medical condition, that's actually pretty refreshing and (good) servers won't get upset at you for that.
Nix Levencheen THANK YOU
yeah no like that dude who was like complaining about it??? like??? i have a severe milk allergy i’m so sorry that i just wanted to eat out...
I hate it when people with fish allergies come to our sushi restaurant, it's like they have a death wish, or they really want an excuse to sue someone. Trust me no food in an inner city sushi restaurant is more than 1 metre away from fish. We cut the fish in front of customers, we cook it in front of customers, it wheels past customers on the conveyor belt, everyone else at the table will be eating fish - it is not a safe zone!
It's not your fault tho
Dude said “you’re lucky” lmao do guys seriously think we enjoy them flirting with us cause I don’t, it bothers me. Like obviously there’s no problem with trying but if they aren’t interested just stop.
he was frustrating me every time he spoke
MTE. She was basically saying she doesn't like being sexually harassed by customers and he thinks she's lucky to have that.
you actually think getting hit on is the same equivalent as being sexually harassed?
In a workplace environment, where there is a power imbalance (such as when a service industry worker is assisting a customer, which is literally the subject of this video/comments), yes it is.
Also, "same equivalent" is redundant.
Racist
My fav thing is when customers think “getting the manager” gets you in trouble... lmao they hired me and I’ve worked here for years.... YOU ARE THE PROBLEM. HA.
"I'm getting sweaty cuz I'm getting angry."
As a fellow server, I'm getting sweaty just watching this video 😂😫😂😫
I could NOT be a server.
and they cant either hence why they should get other jobs
I would like to that I am a server and yeah, some people are very unpleasant. But, most people are nice and fun to talk to. Going out to eat is a fun experience and it is absolutely amazing to help make their time even better. It's not all bad and we don't hate it. Hence, why we're servers.
lovemyslowee most ppl don't get a choice sometimes
I thought the same exact thing. Now I am one! There's awful people everywhere. The experiences that I have had with some customers are really nice, it's not about just giving a plate some food and not talking to them but making them feel welcomed and have an amazing experience and good conversation.
Besides mean people, it's actually really nice to have conversations with people and almost be like a friend. :D
serenityq26 they are here to show pet peeves. 😑 Everything they said seems totally reasonable to get annoyed at
I’m just genuinely asking. If not waving, how do you call the servers at the other side of the restaurant without yelling? If I’m ready to order and nobody’s coming to take my order, how else do i call a server?
Put your hand up and make alot of eyecontact. If its a good server, it'll work.
wait.
I think they were talking about people waving excessively at you when you are clearly busy with another table. People with be leaning out of their chairs and waving aggressively at you, or even calling for you when you’re in the middle of speaking to another table. People even grab or tap you, it’s crazy.
I am a server, eye contact or just smiling or a little wave. I think that's totally ok and not mean at all or annoying
Edit: also if you have empty cups at the end of the table or menus, etc it's easier to spot when it's busy- i try not to be annoying by asking y'all need water all the time, so I can easily refill and take away plates or check if I can visual see what's up- if not then it's like a guessing game for the servers but good servers can tell when's the right time to ask how's everything doing, more water, check, etc :D
They will be back....don’t you worry!
4:43 Does this dude really have a problem with homeless people simply coming in? He didn't say loitering or causing a scene, just the homeless. It's California. Lot's of people are homeless. If they came to buy food idk what the problem is. Shame on you.
Jade Thrasher I understand exactly what you mean. But as someone who has been a waitress and bartender in the past. It’s not workers that actually are annoyed by it. The customers get on their high horses and have a go at the staff for allowing them in. So the worker doesn’t necessarily get annoyed at the homeless person but the don’t want the conflict at the same time. Xx
Jade Thrasher a homeless person can also come in smelling like butt ass when they sit inside a restaurant with the aroma of that smell and thats one of the reasons customers come at the staff for that
Cesar Sanchez Sounds like an entitled customer problem. Shame on them. I've worked in food and at a laundromat so I've had my fair share with the homeless, if I can handle them, so can Karen. I'm not here to discriminate against anyone (especially when they're not causing an issue) and neither should that restaurant. Also, there's plenty of homeless people that take care of themselves. The ignorance of people who think like that is astonishing. I'd push some people off their high horses if I could.
Jade Thrasher im saying the aroma of the smell is what ticks people . I mean come on you’re eating at a restaurant and have a homeless dude sitting a table away from you smelling like the devil’s asscheeks while you’re eating . you’re gonna get disgusted stop fronting 😂😂
No front, sorry you weren't raised to be polite.
"I'm getting sweaty because I'm angry." I felt that.
Probably my biggest pet peeve as a server is, "We're ready to order!" "ok, awesome! What would you like?" "hmmmm......" *sweating, 2 tables waiting for their checks, 1 needing refills, 1 table needs a ranch, food needing to be ran in the kitchen window, etc.* I have NO problem giving you more time with the menu or answering questions, but DONT tell me you're ready if you're not because I could be doing 50 other things during your "hmmm" time.
Dana and while they’re pondering you go “I can give you some more time, I’ll be right back!” And they’re like “no no we’re ready” and then 10 minutes later you’re finally done
and you feel your other tables staring at you the whole time
Omg that is so true!
I’ve never related to anything more in my life
Dana and then they finally decide what to order and you ask what they would like for their side and it’s another 10 minutes of hmmm
SNAPPING YOUR FINGERS IS LITERALLY THE WORST - speaking from experience.
I am not even a waiter and I agree.
MumbaiGlutton ughhhh my dad is always very kind to servers and tips extremely well, but if he needs someone’s attention he snaps and it drives me crazy!!!! Just know that not everyone is trying to be rude :(
My dad does that sometimes at restaurants and I can’t tell you.... HOW EMBARRASSED I GET THAT I LITERALLY TRY TO HIDE MY FACE WHEN THE WAITER COMES BACK 😂😂😬
Daniella Marsam omg I can totally imagine 😂 I get so embarrassed I feel so bad for the waitress !! If I ever need anything I just try to make eye contact with them or if they pass by I say excuse me __etc etc..
i am a waiter myself and i really don't mind. I do think that there is a very big difference between snapping your fingers or just putting your hand up. If someone just puts their hand up because they want to ask me something I find it actually quite helpful because i now know they need something.
I work at a vegan restaurant. One time, someone called and ask us what vegan items did we serve. Lol
A lot if times, I have to tell customers to please look at the menu.
dude we have huge signs all around our restaurant that say "BREAKFAST SERVED ALL DAY" and i still get asked if we serve it all day 🙄
I had someone ask me the difference between wings and boneless wings once, I had to walk away before I burst out laughing.
1. "What's the difference between the 2 piece fish and the 3 piece fish?"
"One piece of fish."
2. "Schells Dark? Now is that a light beer?"
"It's got 'Dark' right in the name."
i hate it when people sit themselves or they move themselves from where they are sitting to a booth... IT MESSES UP EVERYTHING! and that is so unbelievably rude!
What about in bars inside of restaurants you can sit yourself there
I hate that!! We sat you there for a reason! There is a rotation and that will throw it off completely
FR ! Like damn y’all did not just move sections like that !
Yes! I worked at a hotel and people would always sit themselves at dirty tables for breakfast then get annoyed they havent been offered tea or coffee. Umm you sat yourself and have pots on your table, we presume youve been sorted.
I swearrrrrr
"Hello! Welcome to (enter restaurant name)!What would you like to order"
"...Coke and a sandwich."
"Egg,ham,chicken or beef?"
"I said i want a sandwich!"
^ I had to deal with this yesterday. The customer was angry cause they thought i ignored them and recommended other food.
They didnt even apologize when i explained but instead they just yelled, "Obviously i want ham! As a waitress you should know what a customer wants!'' Like, OH IM SO SORRY THAT I, A PERSON YOU HAVE NEVER MET BEFORE, DIDNT KNOW YOU WANTED HAM.
I feel your pain. I had to deal with a customer that got snippy with me when I made her what she asked for
I've never been a waitress, but I have been a cashier at a McDonald's...near Columbus Circle...during rush hour...with customers that knew little to no English.
The flashbacks, yo.
When I worked in a grocery deli people wpuld just point at stuff and get mad I couldnt see it. My general response was "I'm sorry my mind reading powers havent fully developed. Professor X has been to busy fighting crime with the X-Men to train me. " that usually got a laugh and diffused the situation.
My personal favorite happened to me the other day (I’m not a server anymore, but I do work in food)
customer: I would like the pico guacamole sandwich
me: okay would you like beef or chicken
customer: yes
Yeah my family always tips but when they say we give "bad tips" it makes me feel bad cause we're poor and going out to dinner is a special occasion so we honestly don't have enough to give a "good tip." We do what we can but its sad to know that the servers think badly of us for not giving a lot
Eliza h. Don’t feel bad, as a waiter myself as long as you’re kind customers every tip contributes, no matter how small😊
If you have a special occasion but don’t want to tip a server, then order catering and stay home. It sucks but as a server, I depend on others for my income. That server is probably working their butt off to make sure your family has a good time, and to say you “honestly don’t have enough” to give a good tip is nonsense. If you can afford to eat at that nice restaurant, then you can afford to tip your server.
Robin Trevor you cant always afford tip. Maybe they need to save more money for something other than a tip
Robin Trevor they didn't say they don't tip they leave a tip but not as much as desired. They can go out for special occasions, that's rude af to tell the, they shouldn't come out😐
Robin Trevor well I mean if the costumers don't wanna tip the server, they don't have to
Some dude I’m serving: Flirtatious remark
Me: *subtly fiddles with a gay pride bracelet*
you're gay, you should know that doesn't stop cishet men :/ 😂
@@felixhenson9926 Unfortunatley -__-
"What's good here?" I don't ask because I haven't looked at the menu, I ask because I want to get something that they feel represents their restaurant well.
I usually ask: "What do you recommend?"
And no server has time or cares about what you're eating. You're here to eat what you want, not me. If that weren't the case, the roles would be reversed. Read the fkn menu.
A better question to ask is “what’s your favorite thing here?” cuz “what’s good here?” is really up to you. Everyone one has a different taste so what’s good to one person may not be good to you.
Sometimes servers don’t even eat the food at their restaurant. You came here to eat, not me. Look at the menu.
Right like damn I wanna know what you recommend.... You want a nice tip but I cant even get your opinion 🙄
I am a server. The worst thing are mean kids, not just impolite I'm talking MEAN. I've had a child throw his mom's glass cup at me. Not a good day at work.
RooFooChoo oh that has to be bad..
But u have to agree the allergy comment was very rude.. I'm allergic to gluten I can't always force my friends to not eat at a certain place because of me.. And I'm not mocking you for not having gluten free... How can u be irritated by a person Asking if u serve gluten free
Oh hell no!
When the parents let them throw food everywhere too😭🙄
Oh, cry me a river. Work with youths who've attempted suicide and much worse and then we'll talk about your terrible day.
A B
Oh shut up. Why the hell do people complain about other people complaining? That’s so hypocritical! Also, nobody wants to be a waiter as their career, you chose your own career, so if you want to complain, please feel free but don’t put other people down because of it
My family just waits until the waiter comes and ask if we need anything. Like "normal people" 😂
I would have died of thirst by then!
Until your waiter disappears...
@@kaylamwalker1 it also isn’t that simple either, you don’t know what it’s like to be quadruple sat on a Saturday night do you? Having a party of 10, a 4 top, and 3 2 tops? I want you to go in on a busy night and eat one time at a popular restaurant and take some time to actually observe the servers and see how many things they are expected to do at once. All of y’all think it’s all about you and y’all are the only ones that matter when I got about a total of 20-25 other people I’m waiting on as well, and little things add up, “oh I don’t like this I want it off my bill.” “Can I get some more ketchup?” “Can I get a refill?” “I never got__ is it coming soon?” “It’s my sons birthday today and I have a cake so when we’re done eating can you__?” “Okay we’re ready to pay but we’re splitting the bill 10 ways and we’re not all paying card we got 5 people paying cash” Picky eaters who want to create their own dish, so on and so on. Do you think you could handle all that at once? Just you by yourself? It’s a lot. So y’all gotta be patient when you go out to eat in busy days, expect waits you’re not the center of attention. Often times your waiter isn’t inattentive, they’re just weeded. “In the weeds” is a sever term basically meaning I’m fucked rn..
I always clean my own table before I leave a restaurant, if you don’t there’s something wrong with you 😂👌
Yeah. I try to make it easier for the servers, ie stacking plates, trying to clean up spills.
I just put all of the plates together but it's also part of their job to clean the tables??
Honestly I hate when people get mad at the WAITERS because of the food, like they dont cook it...
If there’s an obvious error or your server rung it up wrong then why can’t they be upset about it?
WHEN SHE EXPLAINS MEN HITTING ON HER...... AND THE MAN CALLS IT 'LUCKY'..... you, sir, are the whole problem. LISTEN TO WHAT THE WOMAN IS SAYING.
ThatOneGirl97 he listened but obviously didn’t understand because he never got hit on
PERIOD POINT BLANK 💯❤️
Gold C men don’t really get it on. Or at least I don’t get hit on....
************** you’re absolutely right we don’t. Women are too scared or shy to hid on a guy.
im a woman. getting hit on is a compliment. dont be such a snow flake.
Wait so how do you get a waiter to you if you don't wave or make a sound? I mean I always try through eye contact but it's difficult when you have a waiter who avoids eye contact
Kathryn McCallum Just say “excuse me” when the get close to your table.
or you can wait until they come to your table again after dealing with their other tables
Mariah Jones I don’t get why people think “waving” their hand is necessary when you can just... I dont know... leave your hand up and be still? Servers are not blind...
If you need a drink refill, place your glass in an easy reach, easily visible place.
Kathryn McCallum I agree with you so much. They may think it is really rude , but I kinda feel like it isn’t? You are just signing that you need a waiter. Maybe you need something fast? Do they think that just sitting there is going to help? Like no.
As someone who has worked in the hospitality industry for almost 4 years I love watching these videos cause most of them are so accurate.
Whenever I go out to eat with family, we try to tip as much as we can and be friendly to servers. We usually don't end up with a very high bill (I'd say about $50 a lot of the time, maybe less), but we still leave at least $10 when we can. Usually more, especially if the server is good. A lot of my family has had jobs like that, and I most likely will as well considering I'm still in the beginning of high school and getting commissions for art. That will probably be my line of work, and I will most likely need a job or two working at restaurants to live while I'm working my way up and building a reputation. As long as you have the money, I don't get why you wouldn't leave a nice top if the service was at least decent? I mean, I get leaving a very small or no tip for horrible service, but that'll be very rare.
So if we can't call you, can't wave or raise our hands, are we just stranded?
just smile at your server and it always works
When the server passes, and it wont take long for them to pass you, say excuse me and ask them for what you want politely.
"Stranded" they aren't leaving you on a desert island. Wait a couple minutes. Patience is a virtue.
Smile at them?
They’ll get to you lol
The one thing I have to disagree with is the allergy thing. If you want to go out with friends you gotta make do with your allergies. Some places cater to that, some don't. No need to get mad at somebody because their body won't let them eat certain food.
Colonel Lemons he’s saying basically “if you’re lactose and gluten intolerant, don’t eat at a pizza place; instead eat somewhere that caters to your needs.” By your logic, those friends don’t sound like friends because they don’t take into consideration their friends needs.
Ellie McHale Okay, but there is gluten free pizza sans cheese.
So asking if a place has that option isn’t really a problem.
Cleodel But there is also no guarantee that it didn’t come in contact with anything gluten. My sister has celiac disease so pizza places are on our top so not eat at places because those happen to be one of the most celiac unfriendly places ever, even if they do have gluten free options.
Nope. If they have internet connections or the restaurant is clearly for food that caters to specific foods, google a place that might serve you. I worked at a southern bbq place and people would come and ask if anything was vegan, gluten free, healthy. NO. Why would it be that way? The question only made sense when we got foreign customers because they probably weren't familiar with the food. Or I also worked in a bakery. So many angry folks that were mad we weren't making healthy, sugar free, gluten free, vegan friendly cakes and pastries. Google it and find the bakery to cater to you. Those types of recipes might be in progress, but it's hard to make good tasting food recipes that caters to certain diets. Especially sweets.
Colonel Lemons I was going to say the same thing. I have celiac and can't tell you how many times my family or friends really wanted to get pizza and I ended up just ordering a salad because I couldn't eat anything else. I used to be a server, well before most places made accommodations for allergies. I get how difficult it can be, however allergies are allergies and can kill someone
I went to a restaurant once, our waitress wasn't exactly mean, but she was kind of blah. I asked if she was ok. She told me she was just having a really bad day, people being rude, etc. I gave her a hug & told her "Don't let anyone here get to you. Try to ignore them" She ended up giving me a bunch of gift cards & when I left she was in much better spirits
" i just wave back.." Lol nice!! Love it! 🖤
IS NO ONE GONNA MENTION HOW ATTRACTIVE THE GUY IN GREY IS
THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING! IM LIKE "HOW IS NOBODY IN THE COMMENTS MENTIONING HOW GOOD LOOKING HE IS?"
Nobody is talking about it ‘cause he isn’t
who finn balor
I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS COMMENT
The guy beside him is hotter imo
Im a server and I get all of these things except the allergy one, they don’t really have a choice and are usually uncomfortable about having to ask for things specially done and I’m usually really sweet to them because I feel bad about it
Magnolia Starr THANK YOU
My mom has celiac disease, so I also try to accommodate people with allergies as much as I can. What I can't stand though, is when we have a big wedding reception going on (200+) and a guest comes up to me while we're already serving their party to tell me: "So... I am allergic to X... could you get me something different?" If they ask as soon as they read the menu when they arrive? Great. I'll get the kitchen on that immediately. Half an hour before dinner will be served? Okay, talking to the chef right now. But when we're already serving? And you expect me to magically conjure up food for you right this moment out of a busy, bustling kitchen trying to get the planned menu out as fast as possible? No. That just doesn't work. I'm always happy to help if they are willing to wait, if they forgot to ask before we started serving but I get seriously annoyed when they just expect me to randomly get food matching their specific needs out of thin air, stat.
i think if you have celiac you definitely have a choice to NOT go to a pizza place, which is what the guy in the video was talking about.
But vegan Pizza and Glutten free pizza is a thing, the only way to find out who serves it is to ask. Tbh I’d ask before I sat down but like, still worth finding out.
I think they are referring to people who say they have allergies to food, but obviously don't. I had a customer who swore he was allergic to onions. Deathly allergic. He then asks for salsa. I tell him there are o ions in it. He says, that he can eat them in salsa, but not on a burger....ummm, dude you're not allergic lol
"I'm gonna put these salt an peppers up your nose" 😂
3:28.. “I gotta whooooole page of burgers” idk why that’s so funny to me
Are servers really that annoyed with people with allergies? My friends with allergies do tend to eat at home most of the time, but if we all want to go out somewhere together you would hope they would try their best and take it seriously instead of being so irritated?
Many places including pizza places have vegan, dairy free, or gluten free options. So it seems like a pretty reasonable question. :( I can understand if the customers are being unreasonable about it somehow but it seems like something that should be expected and trained for instead of being offended by it.
Right? That was the stupidest thing in this video. Being annoyed because people have allergies.
i have a milk allergy and like i don’t know why servers get so annoyed? like i’m so sorry that i wanted to eat out...
Please, that's not what he meant. Obviously if the place offers gluten free options it's not a problem, but the example he made was more like a vegan going to a steakhouse and expecting to have countless options to eat.
I think it was misconveyed or whatever. We get annoyed with people who have allergies to the biggest ingredients in our food. Like don't go to a pizza restaurant that's flour cheese and bread if you cant eat any of it. Dont make us create a new dish for you. Go somewehre that has steaks and soup and salad . or people who say they are allergic just because they dont like something. Just tell is to take it off lol
It's irritating AF!! People coming to a seafood restaurant but allergic to damn seafood. WTF!!!!
when that dude said she was lucky for getting hit on PFFFT MEN
Kermit Marbles the type of men that hit on us like that are definitely not ones you’d want to meet
Kermit Marbles i see what you’re saying but if someone is at their place of work, they are usually nice because THATS THEIR JOB and its extremely uncomfortable when people think you’re flirting for just doing your job and try to flirt with you
When people say “you’re lucky to get hit on” they are talking about how that means people find you pretty. Many men don’t get attention like that. You might not know notice it if you get hit on a lot but men don’t usually get hit on
That same dude also complained about the homeless issue. Maybe speak to management about creating a feeding program with the stuff that’s about to turn? Or literally anything that doesn’t further demonize homeless people. I’m broke constantly but manage to carry fruit and packaged snacks (from Aldi, coz they’re cheap!) in my car when I know I’ll be in a high homeless area.

Honestly tho, if I wave at you it's because you've either not heard me say excuse me 10x, or you've ignored me for 30 mins.
Basically if i'm waving at you, you're not doing your job. 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
Sahara Anne Burns they have other tables to serve plus they might be doing other stuff in the back
I love how they bleeped the s bombs but not the f bombs 😂
Can we have waiters vs the kitchen? Because the servers get the tip and deal with the shittiest but the back is gruelling sweaty work
sam M I agree it is hard work, but where I live chefs/back of house get paid more hence why servers get tips to make the rest up
The kitchen usually gets paid more hourly and also gets a percentage of the servers tip at the end of the day. In some restaurants the kitchen will also get free meals while the servers don't.
horselover1904 I've worked in both positions. For my jobs servers got all tips, but were paid less. The cooks worry about the food and making sure everything is stocked for the next day. Servers are in charge or dishes and doing most of the cleaning. Free meals for both of us. If it was a to go order the kitchen got the tip. It pretty much evens out, I mean both of you are going to always have something to do and work hard. Either way you gain respect for everyone that has done the same
I've worked both jobs and I honestly prefer to serve tables, being a cook near the stove heat for so long is rough. You get sweaty, greasy, and easily pissed off if the kitchen isn't running at a good pace. In my last experience as a cook the servers where I worked were the laziest and had no idea how long it took to cook anything. The servers are a cooks annoying customers lol.
sam M I always tell the server to thank the chef for me, it's a really nice thing to do, and I recommend you doing it as well. 😀
I bet the guy with the brown shirt probably works at The Cheesecake Factory. Their menu is a mile long lol.
TheSesime exactly what I thought
TheSesime who ever you are, could you please help me get to 150 subscribers? 😊🙏
i work at cheesecake, for a server you have to take a 5 day course just to memorize the menu and drinks
TheSesime truuuu

"I'm not your servent"
You job title is litteraly server
But I do agree, snaping is rude
There is a difference between servent and server, but even if I had a servent, I still wouldnt snap because I would still treat them like a human being
Server or waitress or waiter. But not servant. Idiot.
Server, waiter, or waitress. Not servant. Idiot.
I’m a SERVER i SERVE you YOUR FOOD but i am not your servant...
Servant: a person who performs duties for others, especially a person employed in a house on domestic duties or as a personal attendant.
Server: a person or thing that provides a service or commodity.
For me my thing is "excuse me miss/m'am?" And some waitresses get so pissed. Like I mean they are bussing and I just want to know where the bathroom is or they haven't been around in a while and I want dessert. I mean that's like a 1 time thing maximum. I swear waitresses hate me for it.
redspirit17 I personally don't I'm so busy and I often forget to check back on tables. this is really polite
redspirit17 I LOVE miss/ma'am. It's polite, and you get my attention. PLEASE keep doing this.
redspirit17 sometimes they get rlly busy ... and don’t worry someone will come round to you .. this one time I was busy and I gave a customer some water and a wine list .. I was busy making drinks then .. they come up to the bar and was like “CAN SOMEONE TAKE MY DRINK ORDER ?!!” I said I’ll be with them in a minute .. they got up again and did the same thing .. customers don’t understand that we r busy sometimes.
One thing remains universal - screaming, obnoxious children are both a nuisance to customers AND staff
Some of my biggest pet peeves as a server are 1. When the Sunday crowd leave bible passages and pamphlets as the tips 2. When parents just let their kids throw their food all over the table and the floor then leave. 3. When they completely ignore me when I ask “how’s the food or could I get you anything else?” Customers could be so rude sometimes
Ive worked at a restaurant for 6 yrs and tbh i don't agree with ALWAYS having to tip. Yes i know its courtesy, but its just that, COURTESY. Guestes/customers aren't obligated to tip.
i didn't actually know it was rude to wave at a server! i'd never snap or click my tongue at someone, or yell out at them. but if i see my server a table or two away i'll try to make eye contact silently, smile, and wave saying "excuse me" if they're within earshot. is that rude? i always thought i was being polite but maybe not...
I was a server for years.. I don't get this one.. Of course customers can politely wave at you when they want something. the other option us what telepathy?
But really like everything else, its all in how its done.
It's all about intent. I don't mind most waves but people can definitely wave rudely. Safest bet is to add an "excuse me"
It’s only rude when we are clearly taking someone’s order or talking to another table and the customer sits their waving... like I see you but I’m in the middle of helping someone else right now. It actually happens a lot.
I hope these servers realize that in other countries besides America tipping is practically nonexistent.
American waiters only make 2.13 an hour, when minimum wage is 7.50 averagely. They need tips to feed their family. The reason they are paid so low and live off of tips is so restaurants can keep Food prices lower. It also encourages waiters to be more friendly for that extra money.
Lort in Israel tipping is a very common thing and everyone leaves a tip because some waiters don't get an actual salary and make money by tips only
Epsilon oh well I've never been to Africa or Asia, I'm basing my knowledge solely off of trips to Europe and South America.
Lort regarding Asia, I think you're right because as an Asian myself and seeing others, they aren't one to leave tips, but here they try every now and then to do so
That’s because in most other parts of the world gratuity is included in the bill
If I forgot a servers name, I just wait until they pass and say “excuse me?”
“Extra well done but juicy don’t burn it!”
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ok srsly, 10 bucks is a low amount of tip? Im not comming to america thdy need to fix their resturant practices
It's cause if minimum wage. Some get paid like 2 dollars an hour(way below minimum wage) cause they really on tips. You kinda have to tip. How will they live off if that.
It's total bs and a lot of servers are very entitled.
American dining out is probably cheaper tho cos the restaurants cut costs by not paying their servers properly. Servers make 1-3 dollars per hour. Just imagine earning that wage. It should be criminal.
@@DawnKellyPhotography let's see you make 1-3 dollars an hour as your wage honey. Servers are not entitled. You are just cheap.
10 dollars is standard, if you where there for about an hour and spend 65-85 dollars, a general tip is about 15%- Also generally speaking middle to upper class restaurants have cheaper food prices in America than in Europe which help balance a tip, I.E. let’s say 4 people went to dinner for an hour and the total is 65 dollars, 15% of that is 9 dollars each person is responsible for about 2.25 of a tip, it’s not expected that each person pays a individual tip its collective, if your there for more than an hour/ hour and a half, it’s appropriate to tip closer to 20/25% because the longer your at that table the less people they can wait on. But 2.25 is not a big dollar amount for going somewhere, having someone serving you for an hour or so....
I have a severe gluten allergy and it makes me so sad that I can't just go out for pizza or donuts with my friends, or when I get dirty looks from the servers just because I want to be a normal teenager and go out to eat with my family. People always think that my allergies aren't as severe as they really are and I have gotten very sick and had to go to the hospital because the waitress at Buffalo wild wings told me that they could make the fries in a separate frier but really they couldn't. So that was it I just wanted to rant a little and feel free to leave a comment of you have food restrictions or allergies and you want to rant because we do that a lot 😉 also have a nice day ❤️
Katherine Hames same
Thank you I have severe dairy and egg allergies so eating out is a whole sitch for me. Lots of repeating the order haha, birthday parties and holiday foods are a particular sore spot. I desperately wanted to rant I just wanted to see that someone else has a similar problem. I dont want to be judged for not being able to eat what I want to. At least I eat healthier!
@@DaJizzyJ Yeppers, I hate it when people are like, "it's ok for you to have SOME gluten, just not a lot." And I'm like when did you start being an expert on celiac disease 😂😂
I have coeliac disease and some of the staff give me such dirty looks when I ask them if they have any gluten free foods like???
@@saraklinkosz2623 I know It's like there're annoyed with the fact that I have food restrictions, and I'm like "Would you like to not be able to eat basically anything!?!"
I have been a server for years as a college job. Loved it at first but I worked at 5 star, 5 diamond hotel and I do have to say I’ve never experienced worse people. This is my college job and I’ve gone anywhere from people kissing me on the cheek every time they see me, to saying I have no shortage of words (when I was answering their questions.) I’ve been mentally degraded as well as working 12-14 hour shifts for awful money. I get that the job is to serve people but I also want to state that there is no excuse for being so rude and demanding just because you “deserve” the service. I worked my ass off trying to pay for school and the occasional kind person made it worth it, but the common, pretentious rich person made me want to tear my hair out.
I can relate to so much of what they're saying. Being a server doesn't make us your servants, we are working. That is how we make money. It also doesn't mean we are "below" your standards for being a server.
Isn’t tipping based on how good service is?
Zack's Channel if you eat out, you owe them 15% regardless.
Zack's Channel last time I checked
YOu should watch a documentary how tips are supposed to be made.... Here in the states tipping is actually supposed to be done because the servers dont get paid hardly anything hourly.
Eric Wininger no it’s 20%
Why do Americans tip? Servers get paid
I am very very nice to restaurant servers, smiling and polite and stuff.. but sometimes some of them are just assholes and rude even if you are very polite with them
Servers are always amazing when a customer I can always tell they work in food with they way they approach you .
I actually got a server fired once, but not on purpose.
I was at lunch with a friend that I hadn’t seen in ages. We had placed our drinks, appetizer, and meal order, and we were eating the chips and salsa while we waited.
I was telling my friend about this creepy sorority video I had recently seen and was demonstrating the creepy snapping thing that they had been doing. I was very carefully making sure that I wasn’t drawing attention to what I was doing and didn’t even fully snap so there wouldn’t be sound. My hands were just barely over the table, and I wasn’t even looking in the direction of the server, but she came storming over and threw a glass of sweet tea all over me (the sugary southern stuff).
She started yelling about how rude I was and about how she’s not a dog to be called at my whim. I apologized for the misunderstanding and was drying myself off with the (thankfully cloth) napkins while explaining to her that I wasn’t calling for her when the manager came over and fired her.
I tried explaining to the manager, but apparently she had been a crappy server and had dozens of complaints against her.
I still felt a little bad about it, but at least someone who needed and appreciated the job replaced her.
We actually met her replacement the next time we came in, and she was a wonderful server and had already been employee of the week 4 out of the 5 weeks she had been there.
I’m a waitress, but I don’t mind being waved down 🤷🏽♀️
I don't mind the wave down either. The snapping is kind of bothersome. But at least they're letting you know that they need something so you don't have to guess and waste time walking over there just to find out that they don't need anything
Trust it’s not easy to get attenti9n for a bill if the waiter forgets
How else to do it ?
Waving or the one finger or raised hand I never minded especially if I had a full section and it was hard to get my attention snapping or yelling is rude
Shan Parker right... never bothered me either.. some days it was appreciated It gets busy
I work as a hostess at a restaurant and I'm the one that has to clean up those messes children make. I thoroughly enjoy my job, but when a customer has 6 children and doesn't even remotely attempt to help clean up, that gets under my skin. I've spent 20 minutes cleaning up ONE table for 6 little kids and it was absolutely disgusting. Also, as a hostess I have to go around and cater (pun) to the customers by refilling drinks, collecting dirty dishes, and help out the servers and bartenders. I have seen the lousy tippers, rude and inappropriate customers, verbal tips, and awkward encounters. I've only had my job for 2 months, and I've witnessed a lot of these pet peeves. 😂
Taylor Ma sorry “ bad tips?” I personally live in a poor family and it’s hard to tip a lot so people can think we are rude please think about that we also just spent hundreds of dollars on this food
13지민 unfortunately servers rely on tips to make a living, so if you can’t afford to tip you should probably just be cooking at home. It’s all around cheaper anyway
Ugh seriously pisses me off. I get that families should get the opportunity to eat out too but for god's sake look after you children.
@@scubadiver8770 please think about servers who only earn 1-3 dollars per hour. Imagine earning that. If you cannot leave a tip order take out.
13지민 Yes... bad tips. Imagine making $1-$3 an hour.
My dad has full on conversations with the servers. You can tell their like “mk dude shut up already” somethings, but a lot of the time, they enjoy it. He’s honestly quite funny sometimes, and the servers laugh a bunch
You see the thing about Buzzfeed's video is that I either don't see their videos for a few years or I binge watch the entire channel 😂
When I bartended I would wear at least a silver (naturally antimicrobial) wedding band. I might spend $30-$40 on it but it saved me from every guy from hitting on me. Now, if I liked them I would take the ring off.
Sometimes, that doesn't even stop them.
I’ve always wanted to tip a waiter a $100 dollar bill at least once a year.
Fluffy Potato that would be amazing lol
“You could eat some ice cubes” I would take it as long as it’s crushed😂😂😂
I pride myself on being that customer that makes a server glad they came into work that day. There's enough assholes in the world. Being pleasant never hurts.
I hate that in America you Have to tip. Your employer should be paying you enough and customers are not your employers.
LovatoLover22 judging by their attitude it sounds like they think they’re entitled to it. And also no one should be paid so little that they need tips to survive. And I do tip when I go out for food because I don’t go that often.
Ideally yes, but that's now how the system works in America. Please keep that in mind.
Im surprised no one mentioned this: when a large group(like 10 or more) wants separate checks
TheOscar401 separate out customers by what they order?
TheOscar401 lol well sorry that some people don’t want to pay for an entire group’s food, while other people in the group only have credit card/debit card on them and can’t directly hand you cash to have you cover them/combine your checks. going dutch is very common among Americans, coming from a Chinese family, i’m not going to ALWAYS let ONE person pick up the check (that’s chinese tradition)
rachael on busy nights where each server has around 8 or more tables at the same time and multiple servers share 1 register?
why would that be an excuse for the customers to have to pay altogether? it's not the customers' fault that it's busy as hell and there is only ONE register. even so, people in America aren't EXPECTED to pick up a full bill unless it's for a special occasion
It’s not so much the separate checks thing, it’s splitting up the checks in weird ways. “Yeah so us two are together and I’m paying for his drinks and her food down at the end.” Like all or nothing people. It takes a while to split your ticket up like that and we only have a couple server stations to do that.
“What are we suppose to give you ice cubes ?”😂😂😂
You did such a good job. Lmao
