Shitty dish job * 3
    #23695609 - 09/30/16 09:49 PM (7 years, 3 months ago)

Restaurant backline is like a finely tuned orchestra.
I spin and duck past someone with dishes stacked to their chin as the man behind me shouts "6 coming in!" There's sauce freshly spilled all over the floor, because somebody fumbled an enchilada - captain and coke does not a steady hand make. My boss yells my name and I look nervously over only to see him smiling with his middle finger held in the air, that's how our team of misfits shows affection.

The ladies of the night are a chosen few, more or less. They perk themselves up but play their game down; adorned in make-up donning shirts that show just enough of their back tattoo. Someone's getting a tip tonight. They know it too - only the girls who make the man at the table second guess his marriage make any money in this industry. The below-average looking waitress is forever butthurt, and her attitude makes her even less likely to please her dining clients.

I've worked in a few restaurants before.



This is all true and seems to be almost universal.

I'll add more eventually as an ongoing diary/reflective piece. It's all very strange and oddly amusing to me

The more work one does, the smaller the tip. It starts with bartenders and card dealers at casinos. They get tipped massively for no fuckin reason. Then it's waiting staff. They literally walk food and drinks to a table. The mediator between the kitchen slaves and the customer, a pretty face and smile. Next is the deliver driver. Sometimes stiffed despite using his own gas, and he doesn't even get the $2 delivery fee as compensation. After that, it's taxi drivers, tipped less often than their counterparts who just drive food from point a to b. Maids at hotels, rarely tipped even though it's a service job. Down the chain, as the work becomes harder the tips are less frequent. Finally, the trash man at the bottom. It used to be customary to tip them and the now extinct milkman. No more though.

Yea Dishwasher is the shittiest job in a restaurant imo and they get no tips, and shit on constantly.

If there is any bullshit task no one else wants to do, Clogged Toilet?, Gotta run to the freezer?  Go scrub the walls and floor?  who else to ask than the dishwasher, who is treated like the lowest on the food chain.



But let's see a dishwasher walk out on a friday night and see how valuable he/she all of the sudden becomes.




edit:    yes I used to wash dishes

True
Most disadvantaged individuals are good at labor like this, or really anyone who just likes being busy.
I tend to be ok on the labor, but I don't like the pruny hands and of course shit pay.

if you're in this job you basically just NEEDED a paycheck, as is my case. Trying to keep on the hunt

Most cooks I have worked with were either alcholics or coke heads.


or both.


and 75% of them were bald.



Coincidence?

I don't know.

I worked at a restaurant when I was 18 where the head chef was banking 200k per year. Mostly because it was a golf club, and members of the club voted on wages. That was a chill job even though I was a dishwasher making $8.00 ph. :lol:

Only did it for a few months though. I've worked as a dish washer at two other places, as a cook and as a bartender. I was a GM at a fast food joint for a year. And most recently was a dietary aide at a nursing home.

I'm done with restaurant work for the rest of my life though. I'm good on the kitchen, unless I'm cooking for myself. Worked plenty of restaurants to know I'm done with them. :lol:

And BigWorm, when I was a cook I was both a coke head and kind of an alcoholic. :willynilly:

Not bald though.

I liked my job when I was doing it, I was working prep and lunch/dinner rush shit. Pretty much 6am-6pm.

Long hours, stressful and lots of action. It was fun, I like to work hard though so I don't mind constantly having to do shit. Had to start out in the dishpit in the beginning though, that shit sucked- cleaning deepfryers and shit everymorning. Worked hard and got put on the line eventually.

Definatly did more work then what I got paid for though, seriously.

Ya i wouldnt go back to cooking unless they paid me like 25/hr... That's the only way I'd consider it. That's asking a lot though for my level of skill.
