Everytime I go into work I just wait for the day where I’m working doing what I enjoy and thriving financially. Food service sucks
Also my new manager sucks because he barely speaks english, messes up orders and asks me to finish his orders(or phone calls) when he can’t and just leaves to eat some food at the most inconvenient of moments while my coworkers and I have not had a break during our shift.
Like holy shit, dude can’t take orders, dude can’t pack orders and really fucked up our whole system of asking for food from the kitchen. Like tonight we had so many fucking thighs and no legs because he told the guys to put whatever they have and not what we dont have up front
I’m always closing at work with this dude and closing 5 days out of the week is horrible. Especially because afternoon/night hours are peak busy hours. Also quarantine got people buying more large ass meals. I switch between cashier, expediting and packing food.
Out of all 3 I hate cashier and expediting almost equally because the first two people that customers come at are the one who gave them their food and those who handled their money. Not the actual person packing their food nooooo. I’ve had someone jump over the counter
On one of my shifts and me, my manager and the frycook were all ready to fight until our store manager stepped in. I had someone threaten to choke me because I “handed them money wrong” and our current policy is 5 people in the store at once but when I tell people that
They stare at me like I’m speaking another language sometimes. Like I get if its raining but most of the customers have cars they can wait in and if not how do you go out in the rain without an umbrella or anything unless the rain was sudden.
It gets even more annoying when some people decide to argue over our 5 people in the store policy. I don’t make the rules I just tell you what they are and hope you have the common decency to follow the rules set out by the people above me.
I told one dude today about our 5 person limit and he’s like if I infect someone I infect someone like it was nothing. Honestly somedays I’m completely fine with the job and others days I want to fight a customer. All this quarantine/lockdown stuff made shit worse
Was about to end this thread but let me talk about my co worker. Man has no censor which is not a good thing. He constantly comments on the body of any woman that walks in the store and its so disgusting hearing his comments. He whispers them loud enough for only those
On our side to hear them and he tries to joke around with that and other related stuff which quite honestly is stale and rude. Like I’d say what he says but its so vulgar and demeaning and I’d only repeat it to make a point. He also commented on someones pet dog once like
“Imagine someone stepping on the small fucker in the middle of the night. Guts spilling all out. Wouldn’t that ne so cool.” And as the owner of a chihuahua and my uncle accidentally slipping and falling on one of the siblings of my dog and killing it thats just a morbid thought
His comments aren’t limited to customers as he’s commented on my female co workers as well. He also makes a point to just curse out the aforementioned annoying manager and while he’s annoying theres no point in doing such. I’ll comment on my dislike of the manager to my coworkers
But I wouldn’t go so far as to tell him fuck you or shut the fuck up when he can’t understand me. Thats just rude. Anyways I think thats the end of my rant of Popeyes but if yall want another food service rant I could talk about my previous job at Noches de Colombia
