you know who wouldn't be fired?

the corporate clowns who determine they can save money on this location by employing fewer managers at longer hours, and ensure the employees are burnt out as fuck by insisting they can save money by setting labor hours at the location so stringent it never allows for more than the most bare bones skeleton crew.

I work food service.

The regional guy is pressuring managers to cut hours.

Dude almost every weekday shift we run a single Host/Carryout, 1 cook, maaaaaaybe a Kitchen prep and 3 servers. Less at night. You really can't go any lower.

Our POS and equipment is godawful too. I lose so much time to slow response time, glitches, crashes, redundant bloated menus, stupid ass U.I decisions etc.

I can't even label items out of stock for online orders.

The issue is corporate being shit at advertising/menu decisions and degrading service via failure to update/maintain systems and not investing enough in workers.

Bitch sales aren't down bevause we don't suggestive sell aggresively(the new entree sucks anyways) the "register closed" sign is "unwelcoming" or someone forgot their name tag. Sales are down because(aside from Covid and inflation) you are rigid incompetent fucks who make things harder then they need to be in so many ways and drive down morale.

If you cut kitchen staff and I am alone on seating/phone/takeout/register and I gotta go make all the salads, desserts and shit myself no fuckin shit I won't bother asking if poeple want to add desert. Maybe getting 50 cents more tip ain't worth getting bitched out or losing a whole tip from some impatient asshole.

Also why it pisses me off when people act indignant about the mere option to tip me even existing on the POS screen. Actually I do do more then bag the food. I spend most my shift manually portioning all the dressing and butter and shit because corporate is too cheap to do prepackaged. So much time to clean, or rest or whatever gone.

I also prep your salads and deserts so yes I do more then slap completed items it in a bag especially bevause you wierdos love bizzare requests and curbside and making things roundabout and trying to share your entire life story while I have a line.

I also just explicitly pointed out how you can skip the tip option because you inbred fuck nuts cannot figure out a basic 4 option POS menu. If I wanted to pressure that tip I wouldn't willingly do that I would hope you just indignantly click % and be done with it.

I am fine with not being tipped(within reason some people really push it with what they expect and don't tip. Yes if you order 1000$ of catering online with 2 hours notice for peak lunch time and expect me to load it in your car in heavy rain you better give a good % on that shit.)
