Strange customer stories?

Strange customer stories?

I work at waffle house as a server and have had a lot of strange experiences, especially on third shift. People asking for things like pickles on their waffles. Here's one that still grosses me out

> it's late
> 40 something year old woman comes in
> really nice
> gets eggs and hashbrowns
> when the food arrives, asks me for a bowl of grease off the grill
> wat
> repeats request
> ask the cook
> they stare and shrug
> give the lady her liquid heart attack
> try not to stare but I need to see what this bitch is up to
> please don't do what I think you'll do
> proceeds to POUR IT OVER HER ALREADY GREASY FOOD

She comes in about twice a year and does this

There's also a man who brings a newspaper and highlights every line using 3-4 different colored markers. He'll stay for about an hour doing this and Im not ballsy enough to ask why.

Thank you!

I had a woman today go behind the counter to get her own drinks while I swept, despite me having just asked her if she needed anything.

The other night a drunk man got on the counter and screamed and threw ones over all the female servers. No idea why he made it rain but he was a baller

he's a man with a plan

a shittastic plan, but a plan nonetheless

I've also seen about 3 people OD in the parking lot and one inside since I started a year ago. Why do people go to waffle house for that? Because it's a public place and really close to the hospital? I just don't get it

Czeched

Sometimes if customers are too drunk to order their food I just get their drinks and order for them. 90% of the time it works wonderfully

>weekend with friends out drinking
>bars closing getting hungry
>want waffles
>get to waffle house, buddy keeps talking about fried eggs
>he wants a whole platter of fried eggs and a side of bacon
>order comes, dig into waffles
>friend across is swaying
>look at him, ask if he's okay
>says his eggs keep moving
>say it's you, just eat
>sways some more, groans
>this can't be good
>look down, every time the waittress walks by, it creaks the floor enough that his eggs go sliding side to side
>it's making him dizzy
>tell him to just dig in and it will stop
>goes to pop an egg, he turns grey and runs out of the restaurant
>finish my waffles

the greasy mesmerizing fried egg popping sent his stomach over the edge. he still doesn't eat fried eggs, 10 years later.

OH I DON'T KNOW WHY I DIDN'T TELL THIS ONE FIRST BUT NEW YEARS WAS CRAZY

Lots of drunk and high people and one couple in particular gave me the strangest request I've ever had. The guy held out a remote and asked me to push the button. I immediately recognized it as a vibrater controller and asked if the other end was in his girl and she winked at me. I couldn't bring myself to do it, I was trying to be professional. The whole time they were there that man kept asking. Looking back I probably missed out on a great tip, but I was really not about to have some chick floating out of her seat at the restaurant

Also at least 80% of the time, all of my coworkers are high. I won't do it at work because I get too oblivious. Tried it one time at work and only took the order of the lady in a couple. Once I brought the food they reminded me I hadn't taken his order. I was so embarrassed

There's a pair of customers who always come in every week. They're super nice but you can smell them from the opposite end of the store. They're hippies and always smell so horrible, like they have the worst BO and refuse to shower. The chick is so hot but I can't get past the smell. Other customers will go to the opposite end of the restaurant and still eat even with that stink in the air

Once a drunk man grabbed my ass. I thought (more like hoped tbh) it was an accident and let it go but he kept telling me how good I looked. Ended up having to ask him to leave once he started harassing the other customers

> strippers come in all the time
> always pay in ones
> I hate having to count out a $50 in ones for their group ticket

They tip well though and their nice to look at.

ALSO LET ME THROW OUT A PSA THAT I MAKE $2.45 AN HOUR AT WAFFLE HOUSE. PLEASE ALWAYS TIP YOUR SERVERS.

Possibly a reporter or data analyst? Or a weirdo.

Anyone still here?

Maybe, but he highlights every single line, even the ads and obituaries and comics

The grab and goes at my local retail store when i worked there were always interesting.

yup

i used to work at a pizza restaurant that had a dine in area. this 1 customer told me "less pepper on the pepperoni next time"

I think she was just joking with me, but she had a really good poker face if she was.

>I MAKE $2.45 AN HOUR AT WAFFLE HOUSE

I'm not trying to get the general minimum wage debate going, but why don't you just get a job that pays better?
When i was younger i wanted some money on the side so i got myself a shit job at mostly constrution sites that payed about three times of what you're getting.
I was taken after the first interview. It's shit literally anyone with working libs can do.
It's still not a lot, but why don't you do the same if the pay is so bad?

Example?

Once a homeless man came in with his dog and was crying that he couldn't afford to even feed it. He just needed somewhere to get out of the heat for a while so we let him chill and gave him free food. One customer told us not to let him leave till they got back, and when they returned they had bought him a months stay at a local hotel. He sobbed and was incredibly thankful. It was a wonderful day after that human kindness

I work at Waffle House and I take it in the ass

OCD + literal Autism.

Wouldn't be surprised if schizophrenic

Mostly because nowhere else has called me back yet. I went to college for a few years but didn't graduate, and im trying to save up to go back. I've applied everywhere i could think of though

Ok, that's actually off the charts weird.
Kind of reminds me of that chick that would color each square of her college block with a marker creating slanting lines.
She did it because she found it calming.

That's still weird but less weird for sure

I used to get the bus home every night after work and there was always a guy who would read the paper/magazine and after he got to the bottom of the page he would rip it one third of the way down turn the page and do the same once he got to the bottom of that page, always wanted to ask why he did that, still kinda bugs me that I didn't

Probably an ocd thing

My first week at waffle house a customer somehow pooped on the sink. Either he climbed up there and did it, or shit in his hand and put it there. Either way it required dedication

>I MAKE $2.45 AN HOUR AT WAFFLE HOUSE.
lying cunt

...

I'm dead serious. I'm in west Virginia and that's what I'm paid

> proceeds to POUR IT OVER HER ALREADY GREASY FOOD

its a drug addict thing. settles their stomach by coating their irritated stomach lining

you're a lying cunt fuck off

LOL that's great. Thank you anom

get a better job nigga im not gunna tip.

That's interesting but not at all surprising in this area. Thanks for letting me know!

I really don't care if you don't believe me

I've been trying. See for my response to the same type of comment

I don't have to believe shit you know as well as I do that you're misrepresenting the way you get paid.

I'm telling you what my boss pays me. We live off of tips. It's important to tip because it's how we make a living

>It's important to tip

No it isn't, because your boss has to ensure that you are paid minimum wage whether you get tips or not.

Listen. I leave with about 50 in my pocket each day which equals out to minimum wage. However I ONLY get that BECAUSE of tips. When people don't tip, I don't leave with as much cash despite the same amount of work. So yes, it is important because it's how I get paid

worked at a walgreens many years ago. one night a woman comes in and is shopping around. she gets in line and i'm checking her items out. start smelling a really foul stench. other customers start backing away from her and she runs out the store. she took a diarrhea dump all over the ground. dude walks in and proceeds to step in it

Lying cunt. It's a federal crime for your boss to let you make less than minimum wage.

What ever you need to tell yourself. It's literally how I live but I guess I can't prove it to you so I'm done trying to explain it

Welcome to America, I take it you never had a job that pays in tips huh? But you can tell us what its like..

maybe she was constipated

That's gross... once a man smeared his shit all over the walls and I left early just so that I wouldn't have to clean it. I'm not paid enough to deal with that biohazard

I'm an employer and I know the law. And I see these sympathy seeking faggots claiming they make $2.45 an hour all the time here on Cred Forums.

>claims to only make $2.45 an hour
>actually makes more than minimum wage because of tips
>employers are allowed to deduct tips from an employees wage up to $2.45
>employer not allowed to deduct tips from employees wage if wage would be decreased below minimum wage
>employee, by federal law, never earns less than minimum wage
>still goes on Cred Forums and claims to get paid $2.45 an hour

Suck my dick you lying cunts

It's supposed to be like that but literally every job i had that i collected tips was exactly not like that. Op is not lying, thats how it is. If you dont make "enough" tips (to tell your boss) then you get replaced because obviously something must be wrong with you, not some cheap assed customers that think they know labor law.

Well you must be the one employer in the whole country that abides by the law then.

i also worked at a bowling alley where we held the special olympics. tard decided to paint a picture on the wall with his shit and i had to clean it up. don't they have people for that shit?

We don't have to claim our tips unless they're on credit cards. I don't know what to tell you because this is really how it is for us. Do you really need me to go get a pay stub to show you?

Sorry you're too fucking stupid to know the law you cunt. If your take home at the end of the day is less than the normal minimum wage your boss is required to pay you more. The only reason they're allowed to pay you a lower hourly wage is because you get tips. Get rid of tips.

But until they get rid of tips, we live off of them. When I first started I only made like a buck s table if I was lucky because I wasn't very good at my job. Those first few weeks I only made like 30 bucks a day and nobody ever paid me extra for it.

Yes, literally every job must be running illegal wage scams risking violating federal law. Yes, that's definitely it. It's totally not because you're a stupid fucking cunt caught lying for sympathy on Cred Forums.

Read this until it sinks in completely
>dis nigger is trying to describe a ocean when he's never seen it

see
lying cunts

I don't understand how you don't get this. Are you literally retarded?

well you're the one who decided to take that job. there are other, more honest places you know

>Are you literally retarded?

I'm not the one claiming to be victimized by illegal wage scams at every job they work at.

I've been trying to find another job

I'm telling you the truth but you don't believe me. Why would I lie? It's not like you guys are my customers and will tip me better for it

That's hysterical but im sorry you had to clean it up

Theres 2 groups of people:

>One who read the labor laws on the poster in the breakroom

>And two, people that actually work for tips


Either way, you can still justify not tipping because you're a cheap jew, but dont tell me what its like to take tips, when you have never taken tips

This

I believe you tip slave


Signed - The pizza guy (paid in tips also)

Any good stories?

Exactly. I don't believe you for a goddamn second. It's a huge liability for an employer to run an illegal wage scam. There really is no motivation to do so, since a single report from an employee to the labor dept will cost them a small fortune in fines and reimbursements.

Aww, how cute.
When you get a job one day you'll find out what its like, and be sure to tell your boss all about the law too, he'll probably propote you right on the spot

>be me 20
>broke college student
>there is a chain for local gas stations that are essentially ghetto liquor stores

>the mom who had a ultra crackwhore vibe would break out in this weird gaspp laughter
>they weren’t a nuisance as much as entertaining but its hard to visually explain it
>they will be later useful

At our place we get the usual junkies and alcoholics in the morning along with seniors, because they have fuck all to do but waste their gobberment money and try and get free/cheap shit from me. All regulars.

Had to throw out a couple of them. One old guy would come shitfaced and piss himself every time. Another skinny junkie fuck closed himself in womens bathroom so we had to call the cops to get him out. One more midged junkie fucker would stand outside the place and smoke hash in broad daylight. Threw that fucker out too.

However this one regular actually killed a guy before, was in prison and all that. I heard a story from my co-workers that not long ago the usual group of junkies threatened him with a knife or something. Don't see them hanging around any more.

Cont..

It can't be illegal though because it's happening. My boss owns three waffle houses and we all get paid the same except for grill operators that make 10 an hour. I'm tired of trying to explain to you how I live, you're obviously not going to believe me.

>deflecting attention from your obvious lies this fucking hard

Everything I've said is true and verifiable with a google search.

Everything you've said is a pathetic lie. Just stop.

Its obvious this guy belongs in the first group of people i mentioned, and has never taken tips

Here you go idiot.

Yeah, we get it. Thats the law.
I'm telling you reality here

All you're doing is verifying what I've said. So thanks, I guess.

The reality is people like you lying about shit for sympathy because you've got a victim complex. You've known everything I've said is true from the start, because it was explained to you when you were hired.

Was she English? Because we call it 'dripping' and put it on sandwiches.

Have you ever had a job that payed you in tips?

No she was from Ohio or some shit

Why don't you call waffle house corporate and ask them about it?

Oh. Maybe she's just a fan of our fine English cuisine then.

Why don't you report waffle house to your local employment dept?

Oh that's right, it's because you're fucking lying.

Shut up about the tips. If you make less than minimum wage and you don't make it up in tips, it is required by u.s. labor laws that the manager pays out for the difference.

What you're saying is simply not true though. You obviously don't know what you're talking about if you think this is some mass lying thing for sympathy. We only make minimum wage because of tips and because of that we can be paid very little. But minimum wage is only met because of tips therefore tips are important for us. End of story

I pull out a five and always put it into the top jar smiling and then when the cooks look the other way I pull out the biggest bill I can find in the jar.

We do make it up in tips. All I originally said is that this is why tipping is important

that's true in theory, but in practice, if you demand that from your boss, you'll be fired. read Nickel and Dimed by Barbara Ehrenrich (or something)

We don't have a tip jar at waffle house, but I've seen people swipe the money from the tables

That's not the way it works. Your employers deduct tips from minimum wage. If there are no tips, the employer can't deduct.

Also, minimum wage is all a waiter deserves.

in practice if you can't find a way to make more than $2.45 an hour without begging then you probably deserve to starve to death

i'm also an employer (although no tips in my business) and also know the law. And I guarantee that maybe 5% of restaurant owners follow the law. If you ask for your over-$2.45 pay, you're either laughed at or you get it but you're fired. There's a difference between what the law says and what happens on the street.

Bullshit.

We don't have to report our tips unless they're on credit cards. My paycheck is literally only about 26 a week.

/thread

It's not important at all, cause if you didn't get the tips, you'd still make minimum wage from your manager paying out the difference. Stop trying to get ppl to feel sorry for you, faggot.

Yeah i got one - and its tip releated too

>delivery area is 10 miles out from the store, in a country setting
>guy lives 15 miles out, dumbass order takers took his order, without checkingnthe map, and its made and i have to deliver it
>get there early still, order is 19.92, guy hands me a 20, and slams the door in my face
>beyond the door i can hear him and his wife or sister, cousin something like that - "you going to tip them?" Guy replies: "tip them, fuck them"
>calmly walk back to my vehicle and drive off
>3am rolls around, im still pissed, and i still remember the address
>have a pickup truck with tow bumper, go to his house - I back right into his mailbox flattening it and breakingnit off at the ground with a hella loud sound
It was a new mailbox and post too, hope it was worth it to be rude
>they never ordered pizza again

This

Yes, despite the massive risk to the employer, there must be a clear conspiracy of illegal wage scams happening in 95% of all restaurants. Even the corporate ones, right? They surely don't care about the massive liability.

Get your head out of your ass.

Can we please go back to stories? Thank you
For trying to save this

This, a lot of restaurants and bars are doing shady shit. Many are owned by investors or private firms that run it at a loss, so they can avoid paying as much taxes from their main incomes

being fired for demanding to be paid the legal minimum wage has never happened to anyone every.(Not counting outside the us and not counting illegals in the us)

This

multiple business owner here who totally believes you.

i bankrupted one of my businesses (not restaurant) by following the law and not cheating my ungrateful employees, but that's another story.

don't you call it "gravy" in the UK?

nice impersonation of donald trump

No, we scrape the fat off the grill and have a 'dripping' sandwich.

HA! i like it. but he never not-cheated his employees.

>i got myself a shit job at mostly constrution sites
drunken fool.

Samefagging this hard to prove a point - yet the only point you proved is you never had a job where you took tips

Calling BS. The drugs used to reverse an OD does not stay in the system long, they rush your ass to the E.R. quickly before it wears off and you're fucked again. They wouldn't just let him make a call, they'd make sure he stayed still, cause the side effects of the drugs both what the guy took and the reverse fucks up your motor skills.

>T. Emt fag.

Not same fagging, retard.

Got any proof of people fired for demanding the legal minimum wage from an employer?

> work at waffle house also
> see my first dead body at work
> after a certain time customers and employees are exclusively drunk and/or high
> coworker passes out at the low bar during a rush because she took too many pills
> what do
> they say let her sleep it off
> cooks always sleep during third shift
> coworkers sell weed at work
> coworkers will fight with customers, it's almost impossible to get fired
> coworkers have stolen money and not gotten fired
> coworkers are almost all ex cons

Waffle house is interesting for sure

Plus I don't have to same fag when what I said is true, a simple Google search proves that.

This. Work on a farm or construction site for a month or two. Easy $1k/week. Heaps of highschool/uni students, foreigners, hippies do this for a couple months for quick cash then live off of it for the rest of the year

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nickel_and_Dimed

I work at a 711 near my house, and one of my coworkers is Indian. Well, he's my only coworker - the Hispanic chick in the morning comes in right around the time I leave.

So this Indian guy is really stern looking. Doesn't even care to ask if you want the receipt or not - just balls it up instantly.

But around 2-3 pm, this other Indian guy comes in. He always buys something for sex - condoms or Extenze. Only then does my coworker begin to smile the biggest fucking smile ever, and the two start to talk about the product info on the back of the package for like 15 min.

>There's a difference between what the law says and what happens on the street.

Finally someone thats not hiding in mommys basement and knows how the real world is

To the kid that read the poster in the breakroom:
Just because you dont tip her when she brings you tendies dont mean thats how you act when you grow up

That's really bizarre

Wow, you and that other guy should totally hook up, just imagine all the restaurants you can go to and not tip, and preach to the waitress what the real law is.
That other neet might actually be your soul mate

Dude you're an ignorant ass, it's very common for servers to get far less than minimum wage because of tips, fucking google it and leave this nice server alone

People ask for hashbrowns in weird shapes and shit.

Also for , one of my coworkers used to pour the jalapeño juice into the orange juice machine to mess with customers and he didn't get fired for it either

Food servers, and agricultural workers have different wage laws that vary by state, dumb shit.

GF worked at a pizza joint as a manager. There was a mexican who worked in the kitchen. When it got super busy or a customer was obnoxious he would piss in the dough. Nobody ever caught him.
"I peese in da dough and see how he like it then".
He was always giving the other mexicans who worked there, a dirty sanchez under the nose.
He was short and fat and named Jose.
I am convinced the other mexicans gave him a cut of their pay. He told them what to do and when to do it.

That is only half correct. While anyone working a gratuity based job makes well below the federal minimum wage, if we do not get get enough tips to at least match that our employer is required to provide the difference on our paycheck. I'm a bartender and my hourly rate is $2.13, but I never have to worry about it lol.

You guys are really nice, and I've appreciated everyone standing up for the fact that we do get paid less. Thank you for helping me try to explain how it really is.

i'm not really nice. i just like the truth. Cred Forums is full of 12 yr olds whose view of the world is mommy's basement + stormfront.

Yes... I'm sure he was good at it, even using a dog as prop.

The man on the right looks like he wants pics of spiderman

Living wage an minimum wage aren't the same thing.

A living wage is what it takes to support you OR you and your family, Comfortably(THINK THE BASICS FOR QOL)

Minimum wage is the government(state or fed)mandated minimum payment for 1 hour of work.

Minimum wage is not
NOR EVER SHOULD BE
a living wage

Minimum wage jobs are meant for people in the teens and early 20's to help make it easier to get an education and start saving and learning to spend money wisely.

Any one past the age of 25 and making minimum is a fucking retard. and any one welfare is just sad or a nigger.

Real easy to explain how it is when you actually had a job where you received tips
I guess its easy to explain the law too, but it doesn't mean that's how it is irl
I hope one day they have a job where they rely on tips
Also, inb4 "I'm too smart for that, I'll have a better job" - yeah, the real world is going to hit them hard one day, lol

^ read that you ranting retards. "you be lying cunt, i know errything":

I’ve never worked a tip reliant job, but mom did while growing up.

If my meal is less than $30 and the server wasn’t up my ass or too absent, I usually tip at least 50%.

These people like employer user will never understand and will always be self entitled failures stuck in their bottom rung HR job because no one likes them.

You're a good customer

She's on the Keto diet.

So many crazy storys .but heres a scary one
Worked as a weapons dealer off and on for years .one time at a show little sister is helping me and a lady walks up and asked to look at a revolver .sis unlocks the case and hands it to her .the lady points it at the floor and pulls trigger 4 times then turns it around puts her thumbs in the trigger well and fires it twice at herself .hands it back .asked to see another one .sis calls me over .lady repeated her actions .i asked miss are you thinking of home protection ? She answers no i carry .i say ok ??.wants to buy the first pistol .i think .ok there no way she has a carry card .bigger then shit she has all her paper work and a pistol in her purse .

...

Agreed. Unskilled labor deserves unskilled pay.

I don't tip any one over the age of 25.
Also if no one tipped then employers would be forced to pay the fed and state min wage.

If no one tipped, you'd be eating out at McDonnalds for the rest of your life

True ive been a server before, sucks but you can make some good money by acting like you give a fuck about the table

I see what you think and sadly that not true at all
McDonalds employees don't make tips & still all get payed minimum wage or more.

My mom got screwed on tips when she was already homeless when she was working at Waffle House. Then she got fired when some bitch stole money out of the register and blamed her.

Fuck Waffle House. Expensive and low-quality.

It's Michael Caine and Steve Martin in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, you fucking child.

because chains are the only eating places where minimum wage is actually enforced

>work at frozen food retailer
>customer comes in with a good complaint,
>deal with those often no problem
>wants to return frozen fish
>didn't taste good
>back and forth with her for a while saying she can't just return things if she didn't like them especially since the packet felt half empty

ITT: a bunch of really fucking dumb waiters who can barely read lying for sympathy

you don't have to lie we get it you're pathetic

Agreed it does suck
No I make out alright by the end of the day, I just really wish the pay was more consistent. Some days I do wonderfully and other days we don't get many customers so we don't make that much

...

maybe if you didn't manage your money like a nigger it wouldn't be an issue

What the hell

I think thats just the nature of getting tips, every job i had like that was the same way. You'll start to notice a pattern based on the time and the day of the week

I get sick a lot and have not so great insurance and I'm trying to save to go back to college, so my money management really isn't the issue

Yeah I've definitely noticed. We're located by a college and when it lets out, we're dead most of the time.

yes it is

This time of year, january, february, march are dead as fuck because people are broke from new years and christmas

The beginning of each month is the best because everyone just got paid, and near the end it gets a little worse

OK

On the other hand they are the bottom of qualification, so i can't see anything wrong with that. There's an easy fix if you find this unfair: Don't fucking eat at McD their food is gross anyway. If everyone would do this they would simply go bankrupt.

How has this gone unchecked for so long?

Someone explain this shit because its been confusing me since it happened, did he think i was gay or what?

>Started working at a pizza and pasta place in Texas the first day it opened

Half the thread ended up being arguing about tipping your server, and pre teen edge lords coming in and talking about the law - because they are a expert, they googled it afterall

But doesn't.. wow, op is not a nigger

>twice a year

You know what's really weird? People who keep these lists of various customers and track and remember every minute details of every stranger's lives.

Who cares?

The fuck? Why are you keeping track of all these tiny things people do? That's a weird thing. Don't you realize that?

It's literally just things that I notice people do. You act like I lean over tables and watch everyone. You never notice someone do something strange and it sticks in your memory?

Can we consider this English or?

What the fuck are you talking about? 1k a week? Delusional.

This kind of work is mindnumbing, especially in the slow hours. Watching customers or chatting with coworkers are the only things to do.

Kind of seems like you do.

No, not really. I tend to keep to myself or text on the phone with someone about business stuff.

Buy a smartphone lol. People watchers are the most creepy people on earth.

Hunter looking for a case

You do realize how bad it looks to be at work on your phone right?

I own a business and take texts from customers, sometimes at restaurants when I used to go. Don't really go anymore because the servers and entire atmosphere really put me off after a while.

you fucking nub

LULZ. Nigger the people who can be productive while high are the people who will be unproductive while not high.

Jesus. This is why I stopped going to restaurants. These are the people we're supposed to trust with our food. And niggers who spit if we don't tip. Nah fuck it.

...

The fuck kinda construction site do you work at? For drug dealers? Or a money laundering ring?

you stopped going because you're a poorfag

Move to colorado, it will automatically go up to about 4 an hour plus tips

Stopped going because of the tipping entitlement coupled with absolutely shit service and loud idiots talking in the background.

you don't tip? What kind of scumsucking asshole doesn't tip?

Here we go again

No I do tip becuase I know how little people get paid, but I got tired of adding 20% of my bill to every outing, plus the loudness and crowdedness of some places is annoying.

Better to cook at home.

noodles doesn't count as cooking FYI

Yeah eating out can get pricy and the environment can be a mood killer

>go to restaurant with family
>sit at table 10 minutes before being noticed
>server finally comes and takes order
>food comes slow
>never asked to refill drinks

I DEMAND 20% TIP!!!!!

Sure but when it's cheaper to pay off the whistleblowers than it is to pay your employees, capitalism will opt for the cheaper route.

The price wasn't as much as problem as the shit service coupled with the tip. It was just insulting after a while.

You can afford a lot more than noodles when you cook at home.

...what the fuck?

I deal in a casino. Ive seen some pretty loud shit. I saw two asian women get into a fight on top of a baccarat table and one of them jams her fingernails into the other chicks face and spray blood all over the layout. Ive seen at least 20 people piss and/or shit themselves at a table and refuse to leave. Ive seen countless junkies, schizos, fucking disgusting degenerate gamblers who leave their kids locked in hot cars to go in and gamble. Ive seen so much shit i couldn't possibly type it all out here.

>working libs

Doubt

Can confirm. Supposed to get minimum wage if tips dont make it

>When i was younger i wanted some money on the side so i got myself a shit job at mostly constrution sites that payed about three times of what you're getting.

This isn't 1940 grandpa. Every place pays about the same. Backbreaking construction labor pays about $8 per hour.

...

Awesome movie. Almost made me want to become a swindler when i grew up, but then i realized that irl we have to deal with the polizi and irs.

Dealing with assholes all day warrants a tip, you wouldn't believe the kind of dickheads there are out there

When your service sucks then you don't deserve a damn tip. I'm not a demanding person. A simple refill would do it for me. But that's rare as fuck.

Not anywhere I've ever gone. Where on earth are you eating at?

i was a server for years at a nice fancy place, i also was at my local diner. big difference, op

Hopefully this isn't just limited to restaurants

Mfw I realized I either helped create a bad ass gardening tool or helped arm a Mexican serial killer planing on the Juarez weedWacker massacre

>Lying cunt. It's a federal crime for your boss to let you make less than minimum wage.
Waiters and Waitresses minimum wage is 3.50 because they get tips dumb fuck

sounds autistic, who reads all sections anyway?

That's very bizarre.

Then go work at walmart, bestbuy, a fucking gas staion, anywhere else.

Keep reading. I explained like 4 times that I've been trying to find another job

What kind of businesses u got user? Am trying myself but bo real ideas unles you count real estate as a business

Also during Harvey we were selling all of our storm stuff upfront so we didn't trot 10 miles a minute and this dumb cunt blonde Said she needed wicks and fuel for a lamp.
We had plenty of wicks but the oil went quick .she pointed at some Coleman fuel the stuff that goes whoosh and told me I was lying. Told her that's not for oil lamps and she pointed on the side of the can to where it said lanterns and told me she could get it from here on out.
She probably filled that thing up and got shards of glass in her keester but I don't care.

You got a lot of bites.
Yes it's the law, but if you suck hard enough at your job you aren't making min wage, that's the population saying you suck at serving and need to quit your job.

(Remember thinking I was hot shit making like $13 an hour while my sister worked at Roosters... Found out she made like twice what I did after horny old dudes tip too much...)

Where do you live that construction jobs make $8 an hour? I live in the shit pool of the south and all the construction jobs here start at like $16 an hour

Pennsylvania.

You're likely looking at union jobs which are for blood relatives of union members only.

Here’s one that grosses me out:

Visited a Waffle House once. The end.

Well, its 200 comments of 2.45 an hour pissing contest.

Yall just fuckoff...

maybe he just wants to make sure he reads the whole thing?

Agreed

Imagine thinking cops know what the fuck they’re doing. Most of them are just Waffle House servers with a bare minimum of training. Guy probably re-OD’d in his cell.

Kek, meanwhike this edgy cunt becer had a job

...and he promply spent the next 30 days doing meth and letting his dog suffer

I’ve seen where some dude dropped a deuce in a urinal. Fascinating.

Money laundering.

Because construction is a cash job....

It must be funny to him, buying condoms for sex with a goat when there are no goat STDs.

Maybe instead of judging this woman, you should try it out. It couldn't hurt to try something new

Shits great for little trees and thick grass. Pretty common. Just don't let it eat you and dont go for shit bigger than uour thunb or youll break the cable

if you think back, can any of these stories be linked to child/sex slave trafficking?
Think - what slightly weird things might have been related to this?

>literally puked first time i saw this in person
>chuck stopped coming to our waffle house in 2012
>i am pretty sure chuck is dead
>we never made a tribute version of his hash browns
>but shit he was a good tipper

One of my first jobs (c. 1982-83) was at a small neighborhood deli. We made sandwiches, salads, burgers... Anyway, the fat fuck owner sat me down on hiring day, and showed me a pamphlet stating that minimum wage was $4.25/hour. He then told me “I pay $3.35 an hour,” so that was where I should have told him to fuck himself sideways. After 3 months of scrubbing greasy pots and pans and basically being his dirty work guy, and not making dick in return for my efforts, I finally left him high and dry one day. We do have a choice. I went to work at a hospital working in the kitchen. Met some cool people there.

People from shit hole countries do that to others from their country. My father in law is Bulgarian and I swear he is best friends with every other Bulgarian in the country. I think it's a "bond from suffering together" thing.

Kinda related. South Africa is an interesting place.

I STARTED GAGGING AND DRY HEACING AND PUKED ALL OVER THE FLOOR AT WORK.
REEEEEEEEE.


never in my life puked from text or vids.

Congratulations i giess u sumbitch

yes.

Imagine actually thinking this

meth

F

I've never witnessed this happen. Ever. Fuckin ever ever. You might live in a perfect little community somewhere but business is business and the motherfuckers keep their money. They don't give a single shit about servers. Because they can fire and hire a new one whenever they want. It may be "the law" but there are loopholes and assholes who run coorporations. I don't know what part of this you don't understand.

Get a little training, llc, insurance. Lay wood floors and tile. Make the monies

elaborate on the bowl of grease from the grill? former cook here, there's really only the leftover black shit from cooking and oils in the trough of the grill that i know of

Always loved this, like it's so hard to clone brush pink over a couple of your (you)'s

Would be really hard to prove I think. like how you can't not hire someone because of their political background. But when someone puts on the resume they worked for Hillary and we don't hire them, do you think we tell them that is why?

Fuck off with that bullshit. Doing your job well warrants a tip. Simply showing up warrants nothing. Congratulations for dealing with assholes like the rest of us

Pickles on waffles with fish eggs and smetana are delicious. Fucking amerimutts dont even know blinis.

GROSS

Holy shite wtf

>report Waffle House user works at
>Waffle House is shit down for fair employment violations
>user has no job
>user can’t make rent
>homeless

How could this have happened?!

but why

I never tip, thats why you have a salary. I make 25 being a stagehand (zero education needed) as a side job while going to school. Why the hell won't you move away?

do not fucking tell people to move here, faggot
also:
>you have to go back

Trying to read work story thread, and there's spergs on here flipping out about the low wages people get. And not for the reason it should be.

That's like seeing a guy with a flat tire on the side of the road and getting angry at him.
>What the fuck? Look at that stupid moron with a flat tire! Why the fuck doesn't he just drive a tank serves him right! I hope he doesn't know how to change it, fucking liar!

That's what you autistics sound like.

I'm well off, and always try to leave a decent tip if I have cash, and put a shit tip on the CC so they can claim lower if they want.

Keep posting working class heroes your stories entertain me while I travel.

Doubt it. That dog is all he has bro.

I'm so glad I'm not poor. I have never eaten at Waffle House. Even when I was younger and we'd party all night wed always eat at a 24 hour Denny's or IHOP. Waffle House restaurants look like they smell like a bowling alley.

Lol, Yep.

Mom?

Well ain't you a pretentious snob.
Fuck off

What are your blue waffles like? Very popular?

Because user likes to get high. Any respectable job wont hire his ass

>who reads all sections anyway?
Normal people that want to be informed.
Sorry an autistic faggot like you finds that strange.

I don't understand why you poor dicks don't move to Norway/Denmark/Switzerland

I grew up in Nashville, Tennessee. I know of this effect you speak of.

Wafflehouse is the only thing i moss about truck driving

Uncle Mike's right? I'm Uncle Mike's nephew!

I think its one of those cool cliche things to eat deep fried fatty foot on top of buttery heart attack waffles and diabetes syrup. I had a drug abuser ex who was all about it and I know if it wasnt cool she would think it was gross.. such an annoying shallow bitch. Anyway its also gotta attract ghetto people and unhealthy people and the average scum so makes sense to me.

She could also be bulimic. I had a regular customer that would order 1 pancake and use about 10 butter pats on it then go in the bathroom and puke it all up.

wut color was the homeless? If white, it's possible this was true and wonderful. I live in San Francisco (homeless capitol) and the white homeless I know all wash windows or make actual (non-degenerate, photorealistic) art to sell. the blacks and spics literally forget who you are 2 minutes after you give them cash and ask for more. started browsing pol shortly after lol

by law, if your tips don't bring your hourly up to state minimum, your employer needs to pay you the difference. dont wine about tips

Actually according to federal law you are required to claim 100% of your tips, both credit card and cash, however 90% of tipped employees only claim about 13% of their total sales for the day i.e. $500.00 in sales $65.00 in tips when they are actually making about $100.00 - $150.00 in total tips.

top kek

Pic of ass plz

I too worked at Waffle House. Third shift.

A fat couple once asked me to film them fucking for $100 for 6 hours. I turned it down. They were disgusting.

Two old ass drunk women wanted me to have a threesome with them. Also turned down.

A woman went into diabetic shock and died in the store

Another woman OD'd in the bathroom.

A guy shit his pants in the booth.

That place was crazy.

>$100.00 - $150.00 in total tips.
lol mean tip being 20-30%, yeah fucking right

Discount double Czeched.

>What kind of scumsucking asshole doesn't tip?

>spoiled teens

must be going about it wrong. when you apply, wear appropriate clothes add if they had called you in for an interview. Fill out your application in front of an employee and ask for the manager to hand it to them. Greet the manager and APOLOGIZE for taking thier time. Make inquires about the job. ask about things like duties and shift hours and stay away from the subject of payrate. Its important to get your face into the mind of hiring manager. This is assuming wherever you are applying is an in-store application. DONOT give an app to anyone other than a manager or expect your shit to be thrown away after you are out of view.

One of the grossest things I have ever heard. I would never tell anyone that story unless I hated them.

Yes, I love the people that can't grasp the concept between what is the law and how things are done. Heck in my town a Chinese buffet was shut down because the waitresses were essentially slaves that were kept in the basement.

I wish that our culture didn't have tipping but it does so if you go to restaurants assume a little bit extra. I hate the % bullshit because the cost of the meal has no relation to the work required for the server. I usually go with a $2 per person at the table tip, but I'm a poor fuck so that usual comes to 15-20% anyways. I also hate how people don't think they should tip at buffets (I get my own food) but in reality the server buses constantly and actually have to work more.

Meth user maybe?

Not as much of a customer story but i enjoy this thread and want to contribute with a work story:
>work at random construction site with possibly autistic collegue
>we're both on our break and eat our food sitting on a half done stair case without talking much as we're tired
>suddenly some guy i've never seen before shows up and looks at me and asks me
>"do you know what's going wrong with this construction site?"
>me, just a measly temp worker that's working there for three days obviously don't know
>"It's all the jews fault! The jews are ruining everything here. Also the Americans."
>he proceeds to rant about the jews and Americans for about 5 minutes
>i'm too fascinated by the bizarre situation to answer, also my mouth is full of sandwitch
>As he's done he goes away without saying a word and me and my collegue look at each other, shrug it off and go back to work.
