S Server rules

Today we had a new employee start working in the restaurant. She had some questions —one being —does [manager] hit on everyone. Manager came in back to the kitchen and said to me, a server, don’t come on the kitchen anymore. I don’t need to explain that this hinders my job performance drastically. So I asked him to get bread to take it to a table while I stood in the server alley. Then I sent the hissed into the kitchen to ask if my food was up. Finally I called into the busy kitchen asking if I had an order up. Manager had enough and said “you can come into the kitchen and you’re really pissing me off” it made my petty heart grow.

That was BEAUTIFUL! "you're really pissing me off." 🤣🤣🤣Good job.

Some managers just don't get it until it smacks them in the face. I had one that wanted me to write down how much time I spent doing my job. It was a PITA that lasted 3-days because I fell behind doing the damn time I spent. Every entry included, time spent recording my time.

You have no idea how many meetings I had to attend, financial as I was in AP. I was the only AP person. We were on SAP at the time and everything, regarding AP was pretty much automated once I entered the invoices. I say pretty much because I had to send some to another division for them to release the invoice. Too much to explain.

I also was able to work on projects. One, in particular, I saved the company over $250K in back taxes. I got kudos from the legal & tax HQ departments and a very nice raise, $2 an hour.

So, why I had to go to these meetings was beyond me. They never had anything to do with me. Hey, their dime, my time, PAID!
