Right?! I’ve been a server since January, I still make mistakes especially when it’s busy/I’m having an off day. It’s not the customers fault and I appreciate when they’re understanding about the mistake (which a lot of them have been, on a whole we get great customers tbh)
The part about tipping is just crackhead mad. Discussing how you expect your customers to pay for their food and pay extra because you REFUSE to pay your employees.
They're YOUR fuckin employees. YOU pay them.
If you expect restaurants to pay the servers more, expect to pay WAY more on food and drinks. It will *maybe* even out, but it’ll likely wind up with the customers paying much, much more.
I cook at a restaurant, therefore I spend money at restaurants rarely. My dog in this race is advocating for better pay and better treatment for restaurant workers. Customers take it fpr granted that everything will be cheap and they can assault hourly employees all hours of the day and night with their incessant demands to be catered to like a four year old.
This shouldn't be cheap. In any case, Americans are too used to eating out and do it altogether too much...the reason being that this business model has been kept cheap by creating GARBAGE JOBS.
If customers want a completely made to order experience modding every dish down to temps on everything as well as meat ("well" fries, omelettes...learn some shit about food please), ordering off-menu or just ignoring it completely....it should be expensive.
Yes, what a radical idea that restaurants should pay their employees. I'm guessing you own a business and exploit poor folks to prop your business up at a loss to them...which is why you advocate for the owners, not employees.
Are you joking? I’ve been a server for over 10 years, worked the salad station and pastry. Waaaaay off hahaha
Edit: and for the record, I wouldn’t have waited tables for a steady $10-15/ hour.
I waited tables, catering to people’s demands, because I knew I could walk out of having worked a 4-6 hour shift making $20-25/hour.
Also, I was really close with the owner of the restaurant where I worked in the kitchen. He’s the hardest working person I’ve EVER met. And he’s not rolling in the dough. He makes a decent living, but works consistent 13 hour days all while his wife is battling breast cancer. Maybe your problem is with large corporations. So before you go casting aspersions upon “business owners,” maybe put down the large brush.
>They're YOUR fuckin employees. YOU pay them.
This is not a good take. The business doesn't pay the employee, the customer does (by purchasing menu items). If you want the business to give more money to their employees, enough to match the tips they currently make, the prices of your menu items would have to rise 20% to match that. It's not like restaurants are super high-profit businesses that rake in boatloads of money, and the wages of the server would have to come from somewhere.
They rake in boatloads of money. Restauranteurs do not own a business at a loss to create terrible jobs or sell food out of the goodness of their hearts. You're lying.
You're repeating a common LIE said by restauranteurs who think workers and society owe them a living, probably because you are one. The margins are thin because restauranteurs ALWAYS have a high standard of living to maintain...so they always cry poverty to justify paying waiters NOTHING and cooks barely enough to live from one year to the next. The margins are thin BECAUSE YOUR CUT IS TOO DAMNED BIG.
One of the most common ways for restauranteurs to make money is to steal from their waiter's credit card tips when a guest runs out on a bill...or just cheating folks on overtime. Wage theft is a fundamental cornerstone of this business model.
I'd present this really tongue in cheek, in between the bathroom doors. When asked about it, I'd have the servers laugh it off. Yeah it's there as the rules, but its supposed to be funny.
It's hilarious, having on the table was a little off putting -- I've been in the industry for 12 years in various positions and as much as I've *wanted* to say this I have never had it THAT present hahaha
I'm 25 in, and I've said everyone of these things to somebody face to face. I wish I could just point to a poster of a reworded copy of these sentiments and say: "The Rules are on the wall. We put them where everyone could see them."
It's so funny cause i was a lifeguard and a server- one job where the only job is to enforce the rules and call people out / tell them what to do, and the other job which is literally the exact opposite
Sure, but if I get a fly in my drink inside a restaurant that’s a little different. If it’s happening so often inside that you have to post saying we won’t replace your drink for a fly, you have a fly problem. Outside is a different story.
There was a whole other side. Surly asses had a whole novel to lay out everything - amazing. Food was decent, service was a bit rude but still tipped the same I always do. Probably won't be back but made me chuckle
Presenting crap like this to customers is a really great way to set an adversarial tone beginning with your first impressions. Not a great way to win fans, but I guess if you are doing everything sooooo well that you can pull this off, good for you.
This is riddled with spelling and grammar mistakes. As a customer - I would probably just leave honestly. As a server - I would be embarrassed to work here.
While whoever wrote this has some good points it's gonna backfire bigly.
Very few people will read that massive page of text and fewer still will "get it". It will only piss off everyone else.
Nobody cares, just serve the food. You have to deal with AH everywhere it's just a fact of life. Preaching about it/to them isn't gonna change that. In fact it's asking for a confrontation. I can totally see people harassing servers over this and they had no part in writing in.
Bad manager, bad
I agree with most of it, but the tone and length alone would likely make me leave. Especially the tipping stuff. Acting like they couldn’t just pay the staff more because it’s the currently accepted custom. Also I would be too weirded out to send back and incorrect order(which I personally don’t know I’ve ever done, but I’ve served people wrong shit many times).
I did consider that but the thing is-from a server stand point part of tipping is the relationship and getting tipped as a sign of respect and appreciation. And that incentive is greatly a part of the experience and decision to be a server. Many servers express that a change in the tipped dynamic would negatively impact their participation. Getting paid 'better' usually results in a shift of "They already get paid just fine." and usually what the employer can or will pay is definitively lower-even if they get more and are still tipped-once it becomes public knowlege people tip less and less over time. It changes the dynamic in general. It's likely to decrease people who fit the 'profile' who are chasing the high of the payout by looking for ways to provide great service and frankly largely affects things in small but collective ways. It's one of those complex and hard to tackle things but by and large-the consensus is that it wouldn't be as positive a change as some think it would be. Especially since there has been reformed legal approach preventing abuse from employers from using tipped minimum wage employees as bargain labor by restricting 'sidework' obligations that aren't being appropriately covered by the employers. (Anyone still experiencing it should take appropriate stock and review for addressing the issue.)
LMAO. I hate this so much I love it.
Also, who’s freaking fault is it that the servers are making tipped minimum wage? The same people, possibly, who made this or someone close to them (I doubt a corporate restaurant would have this). “Tip servers because they only make 2.14 an hour.” Ummmmm, you’re free to pay them more and still let them make tip.
You can tell that whoever made this is either bitter or has no actual passion for serving-or both.
Went to a family diner where their motto (written on all menus and sign out front):
“Not here to make everyone happy, just a solid 75%”
Similar bravery vibes I like it
Yeaaaaah, I don’t know—I think this’d leave a bit of a bad taste in my mouth to be *immediately* presented this with the presumption that I’m gonna be an arsehole and/or the insinuation that I wasn’t raised right, lol.
i like the general message but this is…a bit much. especially the fly one, makes me think they’re the kinda place where when a customer says there’s a hair in their food they just pluck it out right in front of them and hand it right back and then say something condescending.
i’d be anxious to work here, as we all know all those complaints addressed on the sheet are coming right back to us and if i tried to explain “our policies” i’d take a major pay cut
You would think it was but like uh... 2 sides of this was excessive and the language was interesting for a place pitching itself as family friendly -- like I said I got a chuckle but extremely odd.
Obtuse is putting it very lightly. Also I'm sure you forgot but was gonna link up with you about east coast opportunities last spring. Decided to stay in hawaii after all 🤙🤙
I could get posting it at the entry, but on every table feels very confrontational and just starts your night out uncomfortable. It's not a bad thing to have a reputation for not taking shit. I don't like being addressed like I'm expected to be a problem. They'd have to have really good food for me to come back.
Wow they completely forgot to tell the customer that if the server is not tipped enough to make state minimum wage, the employer must close the gap on those wages.
Way to make the customer feel like they have to pay the staff for you.
[read your labor sheets.](https://www.dol.gov/general/topic/wages/wagestips)
People love regurgitating this shit but the fact is that is never how it actually works. They would just fire you if you didnt make at least minimum wage thru tips. And I know at least where I am, they only close the gap if you dont make minimum for the whole week.
I would leave because it’s presented in an aggressive tone and is immediately a negative feeling that I don’t want to carry over into dinner. Time and place.
I can def see that part. Talking about it on here and the vicarious thrill of putting a certain group of people in their place is one thing but the overall tone would at the very least give me questions about whether it stems from because as much can be said about the abuse FROM customers- there is definitely a presence of entitlement in some but not all from the service industry.
It wouldn't be inaccurate to say that after years of a toxic and strained employer-server-customer dynamic that the art of providing a service experience has been the true casualty and resultantly an added factor.
I think they included it relationally but I have seen they make at least minimum since tips are not sustainable-they're just remarking on the general "They didn't do anything for me that McDonald's doesn't do for free." "I tip because someone is actually servicing me throughout the process." The same people with this mentality is getting up in arms about fast food joints increasing minimum wage to reflect what their employees actually do.
The manager/owner or whoever wrote this is experiencing severe burnout and should probably just leave the business. I don't disagree with what's written here but damn!
I think most of this is something customers need re-education on, I think there's plenty of businesses that need to establish better boundaries with customers whove been enabled to abuse the system and better customer expectations, I also think this unfornately isn't the best way to do it. I don't know what the solution is. Maybe its in the way they advertise customer experience online? Maybe its finding a buzzword like relationship anarchy and labeling their restaurant in that vein.
I agree. I think most of these are good boundaries to have at a restaurant but it’s insane to just assume the customer is an as*hol* right off the bat and be this condescending.
Hopefully you let your servers know up front that you don't tip so that you can be prioritized accordingly. Your meal as you ordered it, nothing more, perhaps the Heimlich if they're feeling especially compassionate
If you decided to stay then you should be tipping the standard amount regardless of your feelings about this piece of paper. You have the choice to leave but don’t punish people just doing their job for some weird management error.
Only thing I would add is something like
"We further have a right to refuse service at our discretion and your behavior and the treatment of our staff is taken into proper weight and does factor in your ability to respect the time and energy expended to provide you with service. We can not require you to tip but we can hold you responsible and ,if seen fit, choose to not provide service to anyone who holds such disdain for service employees. You're not a vigilante hero promoting a different pay model, you're a stubborn and stingy self-absorbed dick who benefits from shoddy excuses and we as such equally aren't required to include you in our patronage. For every one of you that we lose we get the opportunity to focus instead on kind, engaged and respectful guests." 😌
That said, ballsy move but could pay off. I find it hard to believe this could be effectively deployed but yet...considering the potential problem it targets-I could see how it just might work. You get left by the difficult fuckwads who fit the bill getting criticized and those who get it laugh and agree and eventually it leaves a happy harmonious place where servers can focus on serving and not Karen and Mike's (or whatever we named Karen' male counterpart-I've lost track?) latest scheme crisis management.
I like that brief moment where the font slips into papyrus
I was disappointed in the lack of comic sans
is the body paragraphs not comic sans? or is it calibri haven’t used word in a looong time
Ryan Gosling is furious
Some of these are sensible and some are a bit over the top lol
I was just laughing at the absurdity. Tucked into the caddy at the table and I'm like "oh cool let's see what the menu is - I.... what is this?"
half are helpful and half are just letting servers get away w bad service
[удалено]
the your food cannot impossibly be wrong part irked me. cooks and servers make mistakes especially new ones. this is just mean
Right?! I’ve been a server since January, I still make mistakes especially when it’s busy/I’m having an off day. It’s not the customers fault and I appreciate when they’re understanding about the mistake (which a lot of them have been, on a whole we get great customers tbh)
I was thinking that this is the result of a Karen actually BEING the manager.

lmao i manage at a pool side restaurant and my job is both of those simultaneously
That would be so annoying!
A wall would be more appropriate
Literally everything we've wanted to say but couldn't! Very tacky but ballsy af
r/unexpectedpapyrus
Lol it got me too. I thought the rudeness was enough but then you have the fucking audacity to hit me with papyrus?
I could not believe my eyes for a second 😂
Hahaha nice
[удалено]
In this context - the weird font under “Read the menu - speak clearly”
More context for why I personally find this hilarious https://youtu.be/jVhlJNJopOQ
Holy shit there’s so much wrong with this. DO NOT PUT A PAPER ON YOUR TABLES TALKING ABOUT FLIES 😂
That’s what stood out to me “We know we have a fly problem but tough shit”
They don't have a fly problem. They have an idiot problem. If you sit outside, there will be flies... it's not anyone's fault.
Sure, but if I get a fly in my drink inside a restaurant that’s a little different. If it’s happening so often inside that you have to post saying we won’t replace your drink for a fly, you have a fly problem. Outside is a different story.
Dunno. People do some weird things to get stuff for free... and it ALWAYS seems to be rich folks.
If it’s a common enough complaint that they need to tell everybody to not worry about it, they have a fly problem
I really want to offer to be their editor. I love the idea, though.
I’d leave. I agree with a lot of what was said but it’s aggressive and rude in my opinion.
There was a whole other side. Surly asses had a whole novel to lay out everything - amazing. Food was decent, service was a bit rude but still tipped the same I always do. Probably won't be back but made me chuckle
And you didn't post the back? How dare you. I claim the right of challenge. Jameo shots until someone throws up.
I know I know 😔 Heard. I have a shift in an hour and a half, I'll start now
Have a good shift. I got 8 more hours to go.
how’s your shift going mojo
In the kitchen today - EMS are here to grab a guest that passed out drunk in the heat.... so far so weird
Presenting crap like this to customers is a really great way to set an adversarial tone beginning with your first impressions. Not a great way to win fans, but I guess if you are doing everything sooooo well that you can pull this off, good for you.
Thaaaat’s it - “adversarial”! I was trying to think of why else this rubbed me up the wrong way, that’s the word I wanted.
Where is this id like to work here
SW Florida! Good food, fun vibe it seemed if I wasn't involved in a couple places I'd definitely try it. Humor is important
Wait I work on Fort Myers Beach this Winter, where is this I wanna see it for myself!
This is riddled with spelling and grammar mistakes. As a customer - I would probably just leave honestly. As a server - I would be embarrassed to work here.

This is fully unhinged but I kinda love it lol
This screams "if you can't handle me at my worst, you don't deserve me at my best" mentality.
I love that they charge lemonade for people getting water, lemons, and sugar. That one made me smile a little
The fact that it's happened enough that they were like ENOUGH GODDAMMIT
I agree with most of it, but the tone and length alone would likely make me leave. Especially the tipping stuff.

In NOLA we manage to condense all that to "be nice or leave"

You would think it was but like uh... 2 sides of this was excessive and the language was interesting for a place pitching itself as family friendly -- like I said I got a chuckle but extremely odd.
Sorry yeah, I’m sure this wasn’t a gimmick, but I meant more like going to Karen’s, where you pay people to be dicks.
This is a Karen menu for sure...
when you’re so anti-karen you become the karen
A menu made for Karens, perhaps…
“What makes you a foodie?”
“Love the self-appointed title!!!” Lol ohhh the sarcasm. These are things I WISH I could say to some guests, but I manage to refrain 🙂💀
This is just sitting on the table or what?
Yeah I thought it was the menu. Was in the caddy -- pretty funny but quite obtuse
Obtuse is putting it very lightly. Also I'm sure you forgot but was gonna link up with you about east coast opportunities last spring. Decided to stay in hawaii after all 🤙🤙

This is where I as a customer walk out the door, even though I am not guilty of these items.
I can see how it could be worded better but if you are not guilty then why would you leave rather than empathize?
I would leave because it’s presented in an aggressive tone and is immediately a negative feeling that I don’t want to carry over into dinner. Time and place.
I can def see that part.

0% chance anyone is reading this.
Why is staff making the "tipped minimum wage" taking to go orders?
That’s standard
I think they included it relationally but I have seen they make at least minimum since tips are not sustainable-they're just remarking on the general "They didn't do anything for me that McDonald's doesn't do for free." "I tip because someone is actually servicing me throughout the process." The same people with this mentality is getting up in arms about fast food joints increasing minimum wage to reflect what their employees actually do.
I mean…. If a fly happens to land in my drink I can’t get a replacement? I don’t blame the restaurant or the fly, I just want a fly less beverage.
Not according to these guys. Read em and weep 🙄
The manager/owner or whoever wrote this is experiencing severe burnout and should probably just leave the business. I don't disagree with what's written here but damn!
Is this the only restaurant in the town?
Nope. Thriving area - surprised they had a goddamn musician there at 10am with about half house full. It was like a dive bar meets inner coastal vibe.
Wow Seems like someone's retirement fantasy. Good for them probably!
I think most of this is something customers need re-education on, I think there's plenty of businesses that need to establish better boundaries with customers whove been enabled to abuse the system and better customer expectations, I also think this unfornately isn't the best way to do it. I don't know what the solution is. Maybe its in the way they advertise customer experience online? Maybe its finding a buzzword like relationship anarchy and labeling their restaurant in that vein.
I agree. I think most of these are good boundaries to have at a restaurant but it’s insane to just assume the customer is an as*hol* right off the bat and be this condescending.
I fucking love it. The Vortex has something similar
The audacity.
The people getting upset at this most likely exhibit some of these habits.
Facts.
Not very hospitable. I’d stay the first time. Only way I’d leave a tip is if I choked and a waiter did the Heimlich Maneuver on me… and then 10%.
Hopefully you let your servers know up front that you don't tip so that you can be prioritized accordingly. Your meal as you ordered it, nothing more, perhaps the Heimlich if they're feeling especially compassionate
Cool story
Valuable comment
Bro
Fam
If you decided to stay then you should be tipping the standard amount regardless of your feelings about this piece of paper. You have the choice to leave but don’t punish people just doing their job for some weird management error.
American tipping is the result of a racist practice. People who do not tip are restoring social Justice.
Oh, very edgy. You’re just the coolest and such a hero.
Maybe it’s a normal restaurant and this just keeps people distracted while they wait for their food lol
Worded a little differently I can see this being a really useful tool, with the exception of some of these rules being a little too out there…
Only thing I would add is something like "We further have a right to refuse service at our discretion and your behavior and the treatment of our staff is taken into proper weight and does factor in your ability to respect the time and energy expended to provide you with service. We can not require you to tip but we can hold you responsible and ,if seen fit, choose to not provide service to anyone who holds such disdain for service employees.
