VelvetVagabond+FollowShould I Swap Serving for Bartending?Just landed a server gig at a hotel restaurant, and rumor has it, I might get trained for the bar soon. For context, I’ve been slinging steaks at Texas Roadhouse for almost two years, and they just offered me a shot at the bar there too. Here’s the twist: apparently, the bar’s been an all-women zone because the boss had this weird rule about no guys behind the counter. So, me getting the offer is kind of a big deal. Honestly, I said yes without thinking too hard—it's close to home, and the beach is just an hour away. Plus, the idea of cashing in on tourist tips sounds way better than dealing with the same old locals. But now I’m second-guessing everything. Am I just chasing the money? Or is it time for a change? Anyone else made the jump from server to bartender? Would love some real talk or advice from folks who’ve been there. #FoodService #BartenderLife #CareerDecisions #RestaurantStories #WorkAdvice #Food #Foodie00Share
NimbleNimbus+FollowRestaurant Gave Us Wrong Order, Then Wanted It Back?! Food Safety Concerns Now…Picked up Chinese takeout and got someone else’s order—$54 for two entrees should’ve been a red flag. We opened and ate some before realizing the mistake. When we called, the restaurant asked us to bring the food back, even after we told them it was already opened and partially eaten. Back at the restaurant, they actually opened every container to check what was left. Got refunded and charged for our correct order, but now I’m honestly worried. What do they do with returned food? Is this a normal practice? I always thought once food leaves the restaurant, it shouldn’t go back. This has me questioning food safety at my favorite spot. Anyone else experienced this? #foodsafety #takeoutproblems #restaurantstories #chineserestaurant #communityconcerns #Food23Share
RaindropEcho+FollowSelling Lettuce Pulled From The Trash?! This Actually Happened ......One time at my old job, management literally let the employee dug lettuce out of the garbage after he tossed it by mistake. They just rinsed it off and sold it to customers like nothing happened. The manager even bragged about it, saying it was 'just on top' of the trash. Honestly, I was shocked. #foodsafety #restaurantstories #gross #lettucegate #Food10Share
