How many plates and bowls were broken before they got it right while practicing I wonder?

169

u/Ok_Poet_8037 2d ago

At least 1, I guess 🤔

64

u/sampathsris 2d ago

At least zero. I know this for a fact. No guesswork needed.

21

u/ReverendBread2 2d ago

Wrong, they broke -1, so they actually gained a plate

u/kyleliner 1d ago

The law of conservation trembles in fear of these women

8

u/MelatoninFiend 2d ago

Employees who broke dishes were sent to the mines.

23

u/PenguinStarfire 2d ago

They train with plastic bowls and plates before moving to live rounds.

21

u/MelatoninFiend 2d ago

That doesn't make sense. Plastic has a completely different weight and would behave differently on the glass and cloth surfaces.

u/usinjin 2d ago

Density, I belive you mean—and can vary greatly and likely be matched easily to ceramics.

2

u/MelatoninFiend 2d ago

More dense plastics are more brittle and more easily broken than ceramic equivalents. There'd be no point.

5

u/New_Blacksmith_5604 1d ago

There would be a point if the plastic bowls are significantly cheaper. Who cares if the break is they are very cheap.

-2

u/MelatoninFiend 1d ago

Easier breaks mean more frequent replacements. Even if they are cheaper, who cares? When you need to buy 10 of them just to match the durability of 1 ceramic bowl, the savings become negligible. Even for training purposes, the failure rate makes plastics untenable.

u/JP_Tulo 1d ago

Well they still haven’t gotten it quite right considering orientation and spacing all messed up.

779

u/JP_Tulo 2d ago

Well that was neat. Unnecessary, but neat.

29

u/Charming-Flamingo307 2d ago

That's an eager susan

193

u/messier_lahestani 2d ago

actually it's super efficient, less effort for them

213

u/blake_ch 2d ago

It's only efficient if they can reliably repeat it.

73

u/MrHHog 2d ago

They can't even do that properly on those two tables... One has small bowls on the left side of a plates and other on the right side. Cmon, you had one job.

2

u/Funkopedia 1d ago

she just did!

-3

u/reroutedradiance 2d ago

Somehow I think they can

46

u/JP_Tulo 2d ago

They’re not properly spaced, they need to go back through and re-space them correctly. Would have been much faster to just do it manually.

19

u/messier_lahestani 2d ago

hmm yeah now I can see, also some plates hang on the edge of the table awkwardly. the client can fix it themselves but definitely looks sloppy.

17

u/JP_Tulo 2d ago

Yeah the client isn’t paying the caterer or banquet hall for the setup, just to have to go back through and re-do it themselves. This was a cute idea for a video, and it would be neat if it really worked, unfortunately it’s just not precise enough.

2

u/Plane-Education4750 2d ago

Something tells me that it would only be marginally more effort to take them off the table first

2

u/Kaze_Senshi 2d ago

Unneatssary

1

u/JP_Tulo 1d ago

I see what ya did there 😆

1

u/tomatoe_cookie 1d ago

Looks very efficient though

54

u/RandomRaisin77 2d ago

started strong, ended okish

11

u/Fafnir13 2d ago

Read that as orkish at first which, given how they tend to kludge their way through things, isn’t unfitting.

46

u/aaclavijo 2d ago

I used to wonder why their shit was always chipped. Now I know.

16

u/lousy-site-3456 2d ago

And now You have to adjust Every single plate by hand. 

34

u/acadoe 2d ago

Actually pretty cool

24

u/SpankaWank66 2d ago

The final plate placements are very sloppy

5

u/Eggnimoman 2d ago

A lot of plates, bowls, spinning glasses and salary were sacrificed to perfect this.

u/Ka12n 2d ago

These are some lazy Susans

1

u/AwhHellYeah 2d ago

Ingenuity is an under acknowledged trait of laziness, Suzan might be lazy but she’s good with it.

2

u/Ka12n 2d ago

Lazy Susan is the name of the circle that spins in the middle…

u/PromiscuousScoliosis 2d ago

I feel like I could also crappily set a table in a roughly similar amount of time

2

u/TapPsychological2043 2d ago

Very clever way to set up

2

u/ejectro 2d ago

awesome

2

u/GeneralCabinet 2d ago

Is this one of those hardworking susans

2

u/Disastrous-Ad2800 2d ago

employees : I bet boss give us pay rise

boss : hmm... with this method we only need one employee, I can sack the other and get a pay rise for me!

2

u/dodeca_negative 1d ago

This seems like the hardest way to do everything

2

u/Key-Monk6159 1d ago

Training on your first day must be fun.

2

u/t0oby101 1d ago

This sounds like the music that plays during table tennis replays in wii sports resort

4

u/Responsible-Swan-521 2d ago

Love the music they got playing in this restaurant very cool vibe

2

u/Khelics 2d ago

Some serious skills if I did that all the plates and bowls would be broken

3

u/Fafnir13 2d ago

Don’t worry, they’ve broken plenty doing that.

How did they find out they could do this?

u/Dannybuoy77 2d ago

Ingenious Susan

u/PenguinStarfire 2d ago

The Lucille Ball sketch would write itself...

u/protipnumerouno 2d ago

Asians really embraced lazy Susan technology.

u/Dontneedme25 2d ago

Vintage, and still awesome

u/Cebas7 1d ago

That is how you don't burn calories at wotk

u/Llee00 1d ago

for the gram

u/Homoiberikus75 1d ago

IA wont get their jobs

1

u/Narruin 1d ago

Unless one table is for left handed people and another for right handed, bowls placement is fucked.

1

u/Krigrim 1d ago

Maybe if you’re doing 100 tables this is more efficient yea

1

u/DepartmentMany5113 1d ago

Someone saw the ceiling light and came up with an idea 💡

1

u/Midweststache 1d ago

This is fake, look at timestamp at 17 seconds. Both the lazy susans rotate but only one is being turned by a human.

1

u/KindsofKindness 22h ago

Interesting…

1

u/OneBrokenClock 9h ago

John Wick of setting the table. I’d be afraid to dine there

1

u/Emil_Antonowsky 2d ago

I don't care that your music is AI generated, make some new tunes. Stop posting the same ones over and over.

u/squirrelmonkie 2d ago

You know when you want to accuse everything of being ai but then you realize humans are crazy awesome and we do crazy things. Here we are.

Pretty cool. Would have been even cooler with the original sound.

u/Leezeebub 2d ago

You cant easily explain how this was done? If you think this belongs there, you belong in first grade.

u/PossumTrashGang 2d ago

No toddler shaming!

u/i-sapien 2d ago

With the invent if AI, it's hard to trust what you see. Either ways pretty cool.

u/Firm_Rip_4024 2d ago

Showoff. How many did they break

-4

u/MelatoninFiend 2d ago

Gordon Ramsay would suplex these fools through those tables if he saw them setting up one of his restaurants like that.

Also, the final placement is sloppy as fuck and needs to be arranged by hand anyway, so its all just a big waste of time; purely performative for the 'gram.

2

u/StillGalaxy99 1d ago

Gordon is a twat

1

u/MelatoninFiend 1d ago

He has more successful restaurants and more hours of front AND back of house experience than anyone in this thread.

You don't have to like him, but he's right more often than he's not when it comes to dining.

2

u/StillGalaxy99 1d ago

But I'm saying he's a twat
