- Things that annoy me.
- When people don't put the lids back on the soup all the way.
- Cheese graters left on the counter instead of on the shelf. Don't be lazy, servers. Trays left out are even worse...unless it's clean and has a full cheese grater on it, and is ready in my line of 3 when i'm expoing.
- When they don't throw away the little cup after putting the ginger snap crumbs on the cheesecake, or the chocolate pieces on the gelato. The garbage can is right there!
- When servers go out of their way to pull a chair up when I'm cashing them out. I'm incredibly fast at it, so is it really necessary to sit down for those 2 seconds?
- When servers tell me I need to pull a soup. Don't tell me how and when to do my job. Thanks. And if it's that important to you to get it done in that moment, you do it.
- When people call about reservations. I'm over it. "Even if it's a large party of 8?" Big freaking deal.
- Servers that are too lazy to go to the bar, so they ask me to put their employee meal in for them when I'm doing to go's.
- Servers that lean on the counter and watch me clean up the messes that they've been making all afternoon. Grab a towel and clean something, jerk.
- When the soups aren't in the core when I need them.
- When I'm bartending and clearly talking to a guest at the bar top, and a server stands there and says my name from the side station until I acknowledge them. Yes, I am ignoring you on purpose because you are being rude, and you are not the most important person in the restaurant.
- If your name is Tiffany and you work at Olive Garden, you are a HUGE pet peeve, period.
- Co-workers that get personal calls on a daily basis.
- If you only need half of a Tiramisu, cut the whole thing anyway. Don't be lazy. You're already holding the knife and wearing the glove.
- When servers tell me they're ready to cash out, expecting me to not come right over, but they should know that I always come right over. So they make me stand there and watch them organize their credit card slips and money for three minutes, when I could be doing something productive like wrapping my desserts.
- If you step infront of me and are going wayyyy slower than the pace I was walking...rude.
- When people order "seafood fettuccine" or a side of "fettuccine alfredo sauce". Think about what you just said, then try again.
- When you are rude to me because your guest didn't like their drink. It's not my fault they are picky! Don't be a d-bag. "If it's hit or miss, you shouldn't order it. That's wasteful and there are thirsty people on this earth."!!-Quoted by Larissa
- Don't thank me for dumb shit every two seconds. Just because I'm opening a bag of croutons, or stocking to go salad containers, or wiping down the soup well...this is part of my job. Stop thanking me...it's really freaking annoying.
- If you ask me if I need any help, or if I'm doing okay..and I say I'm fine, thanks.... that means I'm fine and I don't need your help, so leave me alone, and don't ask me two minutes later.
- Don't get mad at me if there aren't any tubies, shells, or gnocchi in the soup. I did my part...so shut the hell up and get them from the cooks yourself.
- When you're at home, do you leave the door to your microwave open when you're done using it? I didn't think so. Stop being a lazy ass and shut the freaking door.
- It is not that hard to get the dressing in the bowl. Please stop being wasteful and dumping it all over the counter and making a gigiantic, disgusting, greasy mess. I understand that you are in a hurry, but come on, really?
- Do I laugh at you when you put a hair net on? Right. I don't. So why the hell is it so funny when I do? I do not like being made fun of, and you (Misters and Misses) that laughed at me all night are a bitch/asshole.
