Moving multiple states away from my home town tomorrow, and it's all sinking in. Holy shit.

Beer is liquid bread. Pop-tarts are ravioli. Corn dogs are Popsicles. I will not be explaining.

Even as a waitress, I'm tired of the excessive tipping culture. Just please remember your servers make below average federal minimum wage. If service is shit, service is shit though.

Bio





Haley ★ 24 ★ Taurus ★ EST ★ Casual Level Group Writer


Welcome fellow writer. I go by many names, but you can call me Haley or pretty much anything else. I stick to causal level groups here on the forum. I have a soft spot for thunderstorms, dark humor, strong coffee, animals, pretty words, feminine rage, mythologies, and all things that go 'bump' in the night. I've lived in the same small southern Appalachian town my whole life, and aim to travel one day. I'm open to the occasional random conversation, but please do not message me asking to write one-on-one; it's simply not something I do these days.

I'll toss down some interest for this one.
This weekend was just so weird at work.

For those of you that do not know, I work at a place that is a resort/private community/golf club/wedding venue kinda place. We have our own members, Wyndham guests/owners, VRI, VRBO, Timeshares, golf members, public guests, guests of members - you get the idea. I work in our main restaurant that is open year round, called Legends on the Lake. (Legends for short).

First and foremost, everyone's schedules were jumbled, because some people went back to college this week and management spaced out on making the schedule. On top of that, three servers had Covid this week.

- Our air vents are crushed in the kitchen again this summer, so my line cooks are in hella bad working conditions right now.

- We have facial recognition on our cameras at our guard house. This weekend, we were hosting a wedding where someone had been threatening to shoot the groom. Security scanned the potential shooters picture into our system, and we received a false notification that he was there when the recognition picked up on one of our members who looked freakishly just like him. Security didn't realize that it wasn't him until AFTER we canceled their wedding and everyone had panicked the WHOLE day. The wedding party had just enough time to say their vows and box up cake before our GM told them that we could not put our staff at risk.

- After the wedding, all of our banquet staff went to go work the cook-out for a large company group retreat we are holding this week. One of our staff accused the banquet bartender of stealing tips, so security searched her IN FRONT OF our customers like fucking idiots. They didn't find anything on her at all, and she quit.

- Came in today and one of my restaurant/upstairs bartenders was in tears and shaking while talking to security. Apparently one of our maintenance guys that comes in to drink all the time has a crush on her, and got upset when he saw her with her husband drinking at a bar last night. Long story short, the bartenders husband beat the hell out of the maintenance guy and the maintenance guy tried to shoot the bartender and her husband. Maintenance guy could be fired now.

- I cussed the hell out of a 70 year old man tonight because he was a dick about the pizza oven being out, and us being out of items. I'm not the kind of person to disrespect my customers, or elders, but the way this man was talking to me - he deserved every word. I told him that he could go ahead and fill out an application while I went and grabbed my spare apron from my car; If I was doing as shitty of a job as he was telling me, then he could replace me if he thought he could do better.

- My fifteen year old host was assaulted by her sixteen year old boyfriend today in the parking lot because she broke up with him after he cheated. My fellow servers took this as an opportunity to gossip about her and make the situation worse, which resulted in a manager literally telling them to "shut the fuck up".

Something had to have been in the air. We were abnormally slow in the restaurant, but still very slammed with all of our events. All of our customers were assholes to at least one of our staff in some way. There was a lot more that happened this week, but these are just the highlights I can remember from the last 48 hours.

If you just sat here and read all that, thank you.
I’m on a personal mission to get one - if not hopefully both - of my remaining managers fired.

Yes I know this can come back to bite me, and no, at this point I do not care.
