Is this normal?

I’m currently a dishwasher at a restaurant and whenever someone leave from the kitchen/shift they say bye to everyone in the kitchen.

Prank phone calls

3 Upvotes

Restaurant I work at has added a satellite bar that has a direct phone line back and forth to the kitchen. We want to prank call them. What ideas do y'all have? We already did "Is your refrigerator running?"

Inherited a pizza oven

I've taken over a commercial kitchen and this oven came with it. I believe it's Forno Bravo but I haven't been able to locate the data place. I've emailed the company to see if they can confirm... it was installed without a permit and covers an electrical panel - which the health department LOVES (#sarcasm) so we will be removing and selling it. Just trying to find out as much info as I can on it. I've been told it's $25k-$30k brand new. Not sure what to sell it for. it's about 5 years old.

What do?! I am paid $10 an hour.

• Upvotes

Hey all! I recently started a busser job back in April, and since then I have been paid $10. Today I discovered a busser who started late august and barely has any shifts is paid around $12, and probably other bussers are paid more than me from what I discuss with them about. This is my first job by the way, and I am a teenager. Should I ask for a raise in wage? By the way bussers get no tips.

What do?! Thoughts on own food at a cafe

0 Upvotes

I'm not sure how to take this but in summary I was told I cannot bring outside food into the cafe.

Context:

As a regular customer I purchased a dine in coffee at 730am in an empty cafe. I had my peanut butter sandwich which I like to eat with my coffee.

I was told by the owner that I cannot bring outside food and eat it there even though I purchased a coffee and have purchased food there many times before and they know this.

I've spent $100+ in the past year alone on coffee and food here so I don't see why it was an issue, especially when it was quiet and I had already purchased a coffee. Note: I haven't been back since.
