I got stiffed the other night because this guy was mad that his appetizer onion rings came out after his entree

Sorry man but onion rings at my joint take longer to cook than his entree(a sandwich) because they are made 100% from scratch and the process is longer than putting a sandwich together.

I even had my manager explain this to him but it was no use.

To be fair, if he ordered them as an app, you should inform him either by word of mouth or have it printed on the menu to "please allow time on onion rings".. and then not put in his entree order until he had the o-rings.

Food cooking times might not be your fault, but any server knows how to time apps and entrees.

Server threads are always so much fun!

"hella fired"

Is that worse than regular fired?

The expiditor of your restaurant failed then. You have to put a hold call on the sandwich until after the apps have been fried. Once the rings are in the water then you call for the pantry station to make the sandwich. Pantry stations know to hold their tickets from the printer for calls, just like a good broil/grill cook knows when to call out he is flipping the steak on an order so that way saute and fry stations can start their part of that order.

---

Again we are way too busy to do that.

When tickets are printed the cooks each only get parts of the tickets that they will be working on.

For example the fry cooks(who get the onion rings) won't see the sandwich show up on their ticket. Likewise the broil cooks(who work on the sandwiches) aren't going to see onion rings on there.

The expos will get a ticket with the entire order on it but appetizers/entrees are split anyway, so they won't know if the app has already gone out or not.

And when there are 45-60 active tickets at a time the expos don't have time to check off if an app has gone out or not.

never thought is thread would blow up like this

I actually did read somewhere that Warren Sapp was on the swim team in high school.

Sorry but if you order something called NEW ORLEANS CAJUN PASTA AND SHRIMP you need to know what you are getting into.

a FULL order of rings takes less than 3 mins start to finish

Now do the same thing, only realize they are the most popular appetizer in the restraunt, in a restraunt that has been at 100% capacity and a 45 minute wait since opening, there are 24 rings per order, and have to be arranged in a tower.

When going through training they told us to notify our guests that onion rings take longer than other appetizers when they order them.

I have waited on 4 groups of black women the past month and EVERY SINGLE ONE found something wrong with their food or service to try and get discounts and of course our manager bent over for all of them. The other night another waiter had a group of black women who got their entire meal for free because "they didn't like it".

I swear these people are professionals who go from restraurant to restaurant making up BS to get discounted food.

Of my 4 groups of black women:

-One group got their meal for free because "I had a hair in my food" even though the hair looked oddly similar to the hair of one of the black women at the table and no one in our kitchen

-One group got their entree comped off because "It was too cold" but the food in question was ribs.

-One group got their entree comped off because it was "too spicy to enjoy". Sorry but if you order something called NEW ORLEANS CAJUN PASTA AND SHRIMP you need to know what you are getting into.

-The most recent group got a $20 gift card because there was a 45 minute wait to get in. Sorry but that was just the wait time, what if we gave everyone a $20 gift card? Don't want to wait 45 minutes than go somewhere else or come back another time. But of course the group didn't make a stink about it until they got their check.

I used to work with this woman. It got to the point people refused to go to lunch with her. Even for big office dinners, she would find something to complain about. Another woman would complain about her food when somebody else was paying for her meal.
