100 Things Restaurant Staffers Should NEVER Do


      Have you ever gone out to dinner and received bad service? I'm sure there has been at least one time that comes to mind when asked that question. Being in the restaurant service industry, I find myself to be very picky when it comes to the way I am treated when I go out to eat. I look for the small things, things that I know I always do for my tables. Customer service is important to me, which is why I feel that bad service should not be tolerated. You are going out to enjoy yourself and nothing can ruin it more then bad waiter. 

      The New York Times has come up with a list of "100 Things Restaurant Staffers Should Never Do.” Their list is very accurate filled with things I don't think should be done by restaurant servers, things I have heard people complain about in the past, and things people should be aware of. If you work in a restaurant, whether you are a waiter, host, busser, or even a manager, you can never have enough information on what not to do and what people do not like. Feel free to read over these articles and see if you find yourself doing any of these things. I know I do. But it is my job, as well as yours, to fix your mistakes, learn from them, move on, and make sure they never happen again. 


      I also found a video of some bad service that I thought was pretty funny and worth sharing.
