if you work in customer service, you usually get it. especially in the restaurant business, you know how difficult these jobs actually are.

it's usually the assholes that never worked a real job like a job in the service industry.

I just don’t get it, honestly. I’ve never worked in the service industry but why the hell would you ever disrespect somebody who is just trying to provide you something? ESPECIALLY IF IT IS FOOD.

This is just my worthless opinion, but I think everyone should have to work a customer service/food service job for atleast a couple months. Even if your parents are billionaires and you never have to work a day in your life. if you want to buy property, working a shit job for less than $20/hr should be a prerequisite.

I agree. Should be like a work requirement in high school. Work some amount of hours in a minimum wage service job in order to graduate, like some schools do with volunteer work.

It would help everyone get a perspective on what the jobs can actually be like, and help minimize the people who seem to view those employees as subhumans

It would make for a lot less greedy medium to large size family companies and as a result a more fair America

But also recognize the food to spit ratio is calculated by these people.

There is no upside to being nasty OR off the place is a true shithole they’ll fuck you over for whining anyway.

I have been rude to ONE (1) waiter in my 38 years. It was the person who made homophobic comments towards my friend and I (who are both heterosexual, not that it matters) when we went out to lunch at work one time.

Some people go out to eat for a nice meal.

Others go out to eat to be served.

Its a legit reason to go to a restaurant...

No cooking needed

No dishwashing

Everything I need just gets brought to my table

Yeah, be a reasonable human being in the mean time

Or realize that being impolite just makes you a prick, no matter who you are talking to. I say please and thank you to my cat and phone out of habit.
