Ugh, that does suck. I’ve walked broken bikes home many o time. Flat tires are the worst 
Except that one time my wheel locked up completely and wouldn’t rotate at all so I had to wheely walk it 
It’s actually pretty funny thinking about it now.

The parents of this 7yo girl at the park who trusted their 13yo son to watch her. She fell off the monkey bars and dislocated her leg and no one was there for her 
That’s so fucked up. Luckily the park was packed with dozens of families that came to her aid, including a dad dressed in full Army uniform. It took 10 minutes to find her brother bc he was playing soccer 50 yards away behind a building 
The sheriff got there before him! Witnessing this made my anxiety surrounding that exact situation feel valid. I don’t even like going to the bathroom for fear my girl gets seriously hurt while I’m gone! I usually tell her not to do anything til I get back 
Idk, maybe it’s just me, but anyway…the EMT popped it back in and she could walk again once her mother arrived.

People who deliver new equipment to a restaurant and think they are owed a bunch of free food for doing so 
We had our new very expensive double stacked ovens delivered today and the 2 guys who literally just dropped them off in our kitchen then went into our storefront ordered $60 of food and tried to tell the person serving them they didn’t have to pay so they got me . I was like” excuse me?? Who said you don’t have to pay?” The one guy was like nobody else makes us pay. Which I was like “good for them” and gave them their total again. They very quickly cut their order down to about $20 and then paid. My staff only gets 50% off . If I can’t let them eat for free why the hell would I let some random guys who stopped by for 10 minutes .

They must be confused about what year it is. It’s hard enough for restaurants to make payroll and the cost of everything being ordered and delivered has gone up incredibly. That’s messed up they just assumed they’d get free food. Every once in a while a delivery guy will come in that I see pretty often and I will give them a can of soda Which I think is reasonable but I wouldn’t be surprised if the owner has experienced this herself because she has been there for years. As far as people assuming they get free food

Oh I give repair guys free drinks all the time and I’ve even given a few of our really regular food delivery guys our staff discount for a simple meal if they want something but $60 worth of food for bringing ovens that were on wheels in and left them for the technician to install. Next time I’ll wheel them on in myself asshat .lol

Yeah they definitely didn’t do anything to deserve $60 worth of free food lol. We as employees even have to pay for soda but I understand. And I’m not mad about it. This just made me think though I don’t know why my restaurant has cans of soda and why they don’t have the soda that is inside the boxes with the bag inside where you unscrew the cap and it connects to the machine. Maybe because it taste better in a can I’m not sure. But I can’t see it being cheaper to sell Sodas in a can. I mean I know for our guest they pour it into a glass but idk that made me think of that. I mean I guess initially they would have to spend a lot of money to get the fountain machine installed but over time they would probably save money

I’ve been working the food industry for 18 yrs. Ive learned giving a simple coffee or snack to someone who repairs your equipment can make a big difference in how quickly they come when things break and can sometimes get things like “travel fees” etc not charged. I always take care of my people but these 2 fools literally did something I could have done myself and the wanted 1/2 the damn menu lol

That’s a good point. I’m going to remember that next time the people come to fix the dish machine because they usually come in a timely fashion. Want to make sure they keep coming pretty quickly if something happens. Washing dishes and pots and pans by hand is not fun and I’ve had to do it multiple times in the last year

I washed dishes for a bit in high school at a fine dining Italian restaurant. Very different from your experience though. I had some creepy chef feeding my underage ass beer all night while I worked. At the time I thought it was the coolest job . Now I see how completely messed up it was that I had some 40 yr old man getting me drunk at work every weekend. Lol
I should probably add him to my FRO list

The creep in apt. 1 who’s been evicted for months and won’t leave. The cops are coming any day now, so last night he had people over moving stuff out. His door was open and I could see him turn on his kitchen sink full blast and just stand there and watch it…for like 10 minutes! I couldn’t really tell what he was doing, but then I heard this lady come in and scream ‘STOP! WTF are you doing that for?!’, turned it off and put towels all over the floor! I’m low key afraid he’s gonna do something fucked up to the building when he leaves, like the girl who slashed everyone’s tires when she got evicted 
Can’t wait for this scumbag to FRO!

Your stories would make a hillarious book with short stories. Ever thought about writing them down?
Besides this idea, wishing you the shit quiets down, those people are fuckheads. Keep safe.

Alot of people tell me I should write a book about my life. I guess I can see why 
I’m planning to start my own thread at some point to share more of my story, and other random stuff (I’ve had a draft saved since Nov ), but procrastination always gets the best of me. It’ll happen

People who leave their shit all around & clutter my space!
Those who don’t rinse or put water in their pan or bowl after making something and just set it in the sink so it can set up like epoxy and is a bitch to clean.

So this!! I share my office with my evening assistant manager and on my days of my supervisor uses it . When I return from 2 days off I swear I spend half my day finding where everything is again and cleaning up after them. It’s annoying as hell.
