    "Just because they're paying for it, they think they can be rude and obnoxious."
    This sentence resonates with most people who have ever worked in the service industry, regardless of whether it is a restaurant or not.
    This is why many people in the working class find appreciation for people like this, if even he comes off on camera as an asshole. He seems to genuinely care about what he does (which is to make a wonderful dining experience) and will not tolerate those who act entitled to misbehave.

      I work in security. I work in the control room. Basically I have first contact with clients/people who need help.
      The big boss once wanted to know why we were cutting off customers by asking them to stop talking so we can get their safety word and say goodbye (IE "bad customer experience"). My manager looked him dead in the eye and said "who do you want us to pay attention to? The person talking about how his childs friend is staying over and the son wanted to show his friend what the panic button is and how quickly we would phone and how he would be sure to give his child a stern talking to or the woman who is about to be raped who just pressed the panic button?
      The boss nodded, asked us to keep it respectful and walked out.
      If a client swears at us, we put down the phone. If a client is being an arse we simply get the sales department to give them a warning and if they keep up their bs they arent a client anymore the next day.

    Anyone fascinated by Marco who hasn't already seen it, I implore you to watch his interview on here where he basically just goes off and gives the entire story of his career, you learn exactly how he became the savage that he is. His father sent him to London to look for a job when he was like, 12, and told him to ask to work in hotel kitchens and room in the hotel, said not to even bother coming back if he didn't have a job, only gave him enough for a one way ticket. Just imagine that, he talks about how terrified he was when he knocked on the very first kitchen door to ask for a job and hoped it wouldnt open. He was basically an indangered servant to an unnamed chef who he only described as, "Not a nice man." which I imagine is really saying something coming from a guy like Marco, and the dude basically worked him to the bone, threw flaming hot pans at his head, and smacked him around on occasion. He eventually left for paris and just walked around the city all night waiting for the best restaurant in town to open so he could beg for a job. He was pretty much homeless. They gave him a job but only if he started right then and there. So he worked a 16 our shift at the top restaurant in the highest rated culinary city at that time with no sleep and having only worked in a hotel kitchen as a sous chef for a maniac. That's when his real culinary journey began and he eventually ran that restaurant before opening his own at like 19. The dude is an absolute badass and may honestly be a total sociopath but that just makes him even cooler.

I apologized to them for the server telling them they could leave. I told them she shouldn't have said that, that isn't her place. But I am the owner and I will kindly ask you to leave. I'm not that desperate for a dollar that I'm going to have you here disrespecting my establishment and my staff just because you're paying for food and beverage.

I felt like they had a sense of embarrassment because it was about 8:30 on a Saturday night, full dining room, and everyone was watching his party walked out half way through their dinner. I didn't tell him his money was no good or that he wasn't welcome back. But I'm quite certain he picked up on both of those things when we bounced them. I was very overt that we were not happy with the party's attitude, and no amount of money was worth subjecting ourselves to their presence for even a minute longer. They had a pretty big bill.

      I had one month experience working as a waiter, I took part on cooking too a few time, just simple one.
      The worst event for me is the customer blasted me for the food I don't cook, they then told me they wanted to speak with the chef. I go to him and I got his wraith in return. Then due to the stress of being scolded by both chef and customer, juggling what to do list in my mind, looking over 12 tables, dealing with the customers who ask something that's not even on the menu, a customer who wants their food earlier because they're in a rush, oh there's also kids running or playing a toy in the floor.
      My went blank and I forget everything that I was supposed to do. I'm a walking corpse that night, Thomas Shelby s**t. I had to resort on seeking comfort from friends and family cause my stress turn into hysterical laughter.

      You know what I just realized? this man is dumb as a box of hair AND rude.
      A majority of people can't just travel and go meet him even if they wanted to, it's not a day and age where u just open up, high speed affordable internet, youtube shorts and watch the guy at work, etc.
      THAT media reporter making sure she gets as much info about him as she can, would let SO many people who literally don't know his existence, KNOW him, LOVE him.
      So much for how unlike her, his customers actually pay for his food. How he said in the same breath that he won't sell his soul out.
      I mean, he just implied if she paid like customers did, he would sell himself out right? how dumb u gotta be, to not know, fame from media is a timeless cheque to cash? more people who definitely deserve better treatment than of his likes, are gonna go see him, eat his food, just cuz of reporters and shows and media portrayal of him. Not magically just cuz he had a talent at cooking.
      He is full of himself and ungrateful to everything but himself.
      If he is so private, there wouldn't be a book full of schedules of whom to talk to when. I bet there were tons of reporters.
      It was a matter of money, which is fine, everyone has to put food on table. But just turn her down if you NEED to be paid or shut up and do it. This is just mannerless.
      As if he is the only one dedicated to his job and not her, as if she doesn't have to do this and put food on her table,
      Just as he takes money from his customers by being loyal to them and providing them a service, so does she.
      Unfortunate for her, unlike him kicking out people not respectful towards his place/him, she can't do the same. She has to put up with his sht as it's the boss making the calls on whom she does the report on or not.
      He's as shtty as it gets.

    An excerpt from Page 161 of The Devil in the Kitchen:
    “The five-step eviction process was perfected to such a degree that often not one single word was necessary. This is how it would work:
    *1.* JC tells me about the irritating customers and I emerge to check them out before giving JC the ok.
    *2.* JC rounds up his waiters and nods towards the table where the offending customers are seated.
    *3.* On JC’s command the squad of waiters zooms in and clears everything - plates, glasses, cutlery, wine bottles, you name it - from the table in about fifteen seconds, so only the tablecloth remains. The customers are left sitting there, thinking the table is being cleared for the next course and marvelling at the fantastic service.
    *4.* JC swoops in, eagle-like, and snatches up the tablecloth. He disappears with it without a word, just whoosh. A few minutes earlier the customers were sitting there, drunk and imperious, now they’re embarrassed. There is nothing but a wooden table in front of them.
    *5.* The customers get the message - they have been humiliated - and they grab their costs and hurry out onto Bellevue road. And no, they did not have to pay the bill.”

    When I was going to Sixth Form College, the Catering School on our campus was manned by a Head Chef and Director of the Curriculum very similar to Marco Pierre White. Extremely talented, experienced but with a very short fuse. The catering college students were afraid of him because he would not tolerate any disruption, insubordination, disrespect and tardiness in any shape or form and he would shout and grind at anyone who didn't pull their weight. But he shaped them up and made those guys very competent chefs.
    I know this because my Mum worked very closely with him when she was a Chef herself and even though she got on with him very well, she told me some of the stories of what happened to students who crossed him and that he wasn't a man to be trifled with.
    I completely support Marco kicking out patrons who are rude, obnoxious and those who are late.

    MPW is a god among men. I've watched dozens of "celebrity chefs" over the past three decades and Marco is the only one that has never faltered, never done anything other than express his purest beliefs and philosophies, and I am in absolute awe of him.

    As a chef with ten years experience I wish I could pull a Marco Pierre White on obnoxious customers. Bestr I can say is there was one time a table made a young server cry over her being new so not knowing their usual table. I went out and spoke to the table concerned and told them you can get up and leave now or apologise to that young woman you made cry for no good reason or I am barring the whole table, no refund will be given.
    They apologised, genuinely like, and thanked me for some good food once they had eat and left a decent tip for the server. Being British we normally don't tip so it meant something. Still though, Marco is on point about people think because they are paying they get to be as obnoxious as they please and current corporate head office mentalities don't help. All people have to do is complain to head office and they will get a voucher, no kind of internal check to see if they are taking the proverbial.
    It's one of the main things that makes me want to change trades. That an never knowing what time I will finish work. Be nice if the industry worked with a reduced menu for the final hour/30 minutes of service. It would make clean down a predictable endeavor.

    As a Chef myself of about 20 years so far. I've worked in fine dining and though working under someone like Marco would be a dream. I don't think my temperament nor patience would allow me to actually do so. He would get me to crack for sure. And boy would I cause a scene if I was spoken to like that constantly during a busy shift. Maybe why nobody will ever remember my name idk lol

      At least you won't be remembered for being an overbearing cunt.
      If you have power and you are in a position to teach, consider whether it is necessary to be rude to your staff and whether it is something from which they will ultimately benefit.
      Needless cruelty under the disguise of being "old school," "no frills," whatever else, especially in the setting of an already high-stress job, is cowardice.
      Just my opinion.

      That’s okay mate. Most men are their own man and while they understand the difference in power, they still demand the respect they earned and to be talked to like another man, not some cunt. Even Gordon Ramsay couldn’t handle this man forever, that’s why he left and started on his own. Not wanting to be screamed at for simple mistakes doesn’t make you any less of a chef or any less of man. Just shows you know your worth and how you’d like to be treated. And there’s nothing wrong with wanting to be treated well.
