Do some restaurants mandate the waiters not write your order down?

Sir, I'm going to have to ask you to lower your voice and repeat your complaint. I will inform the manager of your displeasure if I remember it by the time I get back to the kitchen.

I guess you didn't order efficiently.

Some restaurants expect the waiter to remember the order without writing it down and then enter it into the POS.

They also expect the customers to be adults when ordering. Should they bring you crayons and a coloring sheet as well?

Your waiter at Chili’s barely graduated middle school, do you expect they’ll remember your order the first time?

Doesn't matter honestly. Half the workers are just dumb as frick.

Sometimes it feels like they frick the order up as like some rite of passage type sheit.

I’ve noticed more and more waitstaff not writing it down and it’s annoying when they mess things up. Or when they have to come back to the table and ask you again what your side was, or something like that. Just write it down if it means you’ll get it right.

Preach.

The worst still is when they write it down and still get it wrong.

When I waited tables I would never write shite down, just scribble doodles and shite. But the people still got mad when they got the wrong food, it's like "bitch what do you expect? I ain't memorizing all that shite!"

Absolutely, and they must memorize the daily menu.

It is expected at fine dining establishments.

I don't think that would really surprise anyone.
