700 bucks is a lot of work...
But the profit on that is good also....thats about minimum 25 diners....so no serving...no water...coffee.etc...if the waitress had delivered it...certainly a big tip...but if you pick it up...nah...outback should have policy that for large parties...i.e > 7....gratuity is automatically charged..and given to server...for large orders...those who prepare that volume so fast should get extra pay
..
Waitress howver should complain to her bosses first...if no response...find other job...then complain on social media.. Ya gotta cya..

most restaurants run on a 10% profit margin theory.

30% payroll
30% supplies
30% utilities and fixed cost.

10% profit.
they took in $700, but only profited $70.00

If she did complain to management, it wasn’t mentioned. Perhaps she did. Knowing many who are managers, they may have blown her off. Managers, as a whole, are not the cream of the crop. At least, not in a service industry. If there is anything to enhance their bottom line with regards to costs, they’ll do it. In a service industry’s manager’s mind, a “server” comes a dime a dozen.
