  • I’ve never worked as a server but I did date one long ago who said something to the effect, “that $5 means more to her than you” and while I was not nearly as financially stable back then, that idea has stuck with me.

    An extra isn’t going to make or break my day but it could make someone else’s day.

    Another way I’ve been thinking about this is how for a brief moment you someone’s “boss.” If you’ve ever complained about unfair compensation what does it say about you that you’re using than brief moment of power to be what you hate.






  • How many years did you work as a server?

    I find this sort of behavior is common against people who have zero hours of experience and don’t know anyone that has worked these jobs.

    The pride people feel over being cheap is telling. Going into a transaction with known expectations and flaunting the choice to under perform is not a flex. It’s a symptom among many in this flailing county.
