I used to work for register company, i rarely ate at any of restaurants where I serviced equipment. I saw what went on in kitchens
My second wife was a waitress most of her life. She always made good tips because she loved to smile and hustled. She constantly had restaurant recruiters trying to get her to work for their particular restaurant.
Once she went to work at an upscale restaurant in Richmond, VA but quit after three days.
The money was great but the goings on in the kitchen were terrible.
A cook dropped a cooked steak on the floor, brushed it off and put it on a plate for her customer.
She refused to serve it, had to get the manager to make the cook fix another steak.
Manager didn’t see what the big deal was.
She served that customer and quit.
She and I didn’t eat out very often.
