What’s the job position for this. Do they call them servers?
rip uncle effle
akmal is a cb
I'm going to start serving for the first time and I've been kind of nervous to do so. But this video helped ease some anxiety and now I feel more confident in my serving skills. Like someone also said here in the comments "It's about confidence". Which isn't the only skills a server should have but it's an important one.
lol 15 minutes before the shift? no thanks.
Sick of losers who say waiting tables doesn’t pay. Good waiters could easily make $20+ an hour. Oh no that’s not a living wage for me to live in…..BEVERLY HILLS! 🙄 Sick of whining libs.
I'd never work for this uptight dude
Pretty waitresses and handsome waiters make more. They look confident and are clean.
This guy sucks
Hi my name is Anthony l am 39 years of age, married with 2 kids. Can't wait to finish off so l can head home and order some good food with that big tip you ll leave me… Lol
Why is Jim treating the waiter poorly?
Pep talk is the key to making good tips make them feel like family easy asf
This man did a good job in speaking in this video.
I strongly like how he speaks, Very Profesional👍
show up at 3:34 tomorrow
This guy is a douche.
i have to get a job to pay off my uncle because he has to pay for my summer schooling and this will be my vary first job and i am thinking on being ether a waiter, a Busser, or a hostis and i am scared as hell.
– be there 15 min before shift
– cloth black/ unauffällig (focus on face) no distraction
– not too buddy buddy (never sit down and take order);
– offer/ ask if they want drink before food
– choose wine after food (match food)
– check on them: food correct, fill up water, more drinks (so everyone can eat at the same time)
– clear table (from right) für nächsten Gang ( serve from the left )
– wine: don’t empty bottle in first round (max 7; 1 bottle = 5 people)
– eyecontact = know if they want something; don’t come back too often (=pushy)
– when not too busy/ waiting make sure they can see you in case they need you
– don’t turn away when they want your help
– never ask if they want change: eg 100$ pill pay: pay:94,39 $, bring back exact change
– tell goodbye when they leave
Now this guy is spot on. As a veteran busser, cook, server, and FOH manager he pointed out everything you need to do.
"PEOPLE GO OUT TO EAT TO FEEL SPECIAL, AND AS A HOST OF (…) MY JOB IS TO MAKE SURE OUR GUESTS LEAVE READY TO TELL OTHERS OF THEIR AMAZING EXPERIENCE". As long as you are confident in or interview those are THE words to say.
They can't teach you humility, they can't teach you respect. You must come into it with these attributes. I assure you if you head these words you will get the job.
It's up to you to keep your job. Serving tables is like being back in middle school, dog-eat-dog world. Just show up to work 15 minutes early (on time) and your shift is golden.
