I have, night time rushes sucked and I would handle 300+ tables in my shift. I always washed my hands before touching food, or clean plates. Anyone who tries saying otherwise is slow, bad at micro managing, and just disgusting themselves if they could touch meat, dirty rags, and touch food and clean plates with the same hands. That glass cup and ice is also a bad idea, if you chip it, someone could then swallow a glass shard and you’re stupid for that risk.

Lil Leslie that’s why we have disposable gloves. I kept them in my pocket. Got as many plates I saw needed, removed them. Quickly got a squirt of hand sanitizer and rubbed my hands while moving to the next thing. I never had an issue washing my hands and keeping up with my rush, I priced myself in being hygienic as possible and that even got the regional manager to approve my raise because she would watch the cameras and noticed my habits. Just plan ahead, I don’t know, I just loved the stress environment so my mind would love racing. Kind of miss those environments.

DO NOT scoop ice with a glass. Reasons for being: 1) It damages the glass over time 2) It's quicker to use a large scoop into multiple glasses and the most important one, number fucking 3) What happens if you chip a glass into the ice? If you're attentive enough to notice straight away (unlikely), you've got to now empty out and clean that entire ice well, because sure as hell you won't be able to pick out every bit of glass from the ice. The alternative being to serve shards of glass in your customers' drinks. It's a dumb habit that after years of bar work gets me unreasonably mad. And yes, wash your damn hands.

Let me preface this by saying that I bus at the busiest fine dining restaurant in my state, and I'm damn good at what I do. I seriously can't believe how many people are commenting that it's commonplace at their high volume restaurant they bus at to skip proper hygiene. To fellow bussers watching this video, here are some of the major things that could've been much better in this video. 1. Don't dip your glasses directly into the ice, get a scoop ( a big one if you're concerned it'll slow you down) and have water pitchers with ice next to the area where he did his initial water fill, so you aren't standing around waiting for water to be dispensed. 2. There are things you can rush and go as fast as you can, your interaction with guests is not one of them. When serving the water glasses, do not reach across guests and put your elbows in their face. Always serve from the right of the guest, and a simple "pardon my reach" will suffice. If you cut corners here, again, be aware of your ELBOWS. 3. Accidents do happen, and you should ALWAYS carry a clean linen or white rag on your apron. This is what you will use to crumb the chairs or clean up any unforeseen spills and accidents. Instead of running around for a rag for x, y, or z, have one on you. plan for success. 4. After you've cleaned your spill on the table with your clean rag, including the ice etc. THEN you can use it on the floor. At this point you probably will just need another rag, so take it back to your linen bag and get another if needed, and replace your apron rag. 5. Placing a linen over the area the water was spilled after you've dried is usually a perfectly acceptable solution instead of trying to replace the paper. Unfold a square linen and lay it out flat over the damp area. 6. When grabbing papers for the table tops, grab them from both sides so you aren't wrinkling or putting folds into it. In general ripping the table paper looks terrible and this was not the proper solution for fine dining, clearly the guest in this video was put off by this, as I would too. You made a small little mistake of a damp table into a bigger noticeable problem. 7. Try not to bring too much attention to yourself, practice "silent service" this includes not ripping up your guests tabletop paper. When pouring waters for your table, do not grab the glass to fill it up if possible (I understand if you're short). Try to have a minimum amount of ice in your water pitchers so that water isn't splashed on the guest as you fill their glass. You can begin with plenty of ice if you insist on it and rotate the pitchers as the ice begins to melt. 8. When cleaning a table after you've finished bussing it, use your sanitizer rag to wipe crumbs or food into your hand, not onto the floor, which looks cheap and dirty to your guests. With your one hand holding crumbs use your other to thoroughly wipe down the table. Transfer the damp sanitizer rag into the hand holding food/crumbs and now use your DRY apron rag to crumb the seats/booths. Never use a WET rag on the seats where guests will sit. 9. Wash your damn hands.

I'm a busser at an extremely busy breakfast/lunch restaurant and I love it. It isnt some shitty corporate place, it's a family owned business so everyone is really close like a family. I get tipped about 70-80 dollars a day on top of my actual paycheck, so all that extra cash is really nice. I actually enjoy the work, as strange as that is. It's ALOT physically, those bus trays can get ridiculously heavy, but I love it because I get paid to work out haha. Some days I have to host, which sucks, but hey i'm not complaining. 80% of the time i'm a busser. Overall I'm very happy with my job. I'm 18 and ive been working there for about 6 months now.

Most of the girls sing a lot, nicely I might add. As it goes, you get pretty much asked to do anything that others are too busy to do. And sometimes your name will be called by 3 directions all at once. But if you find the right place, you will be appreciated. Nice to see someone being positive about a job with arguably no perks. But you gotta love it. If you don't you hate it. :P

Thank you for this video. I'm about to start my first restaurant job as a busser in 4 hours and it's nice to have a little glimpse into what I'll be doing. At my last job I was a human signpost, but I preferred to call myself a marketing expert. I essentially got paid to do nothing, and I'm actually looking forward to having a job that will force me to stay on my toes. Luckily, being a signpost required me to be on my feet for hours on end so I don't have to worry about that part, and truthfully I prefer being on my feet and moving. It is a bit stressful going from such a relaxed job to one that is all about speed, but I have confidence. I know it won't be easy but I'm sure I will learn a lot. I learned a ton as a signpost.

Makes perfect sense and I agree that inspecting equipment carrying 12,000 lbs over head is a good idea. But if someone in my workplace actually took 15 minutes of work time to inspect the equipment they would be gone very quickly. That is 15 minutes the company isn't making money off it's workers. Just like in this environment...washing hands doesn't make money. That is all any business or corporation cares about nowadays. I see it in every place I work.

bussers do the majority of the work that one would normally assume a server does. We dont get treated that well and hardly get tips. The work is fast pace and you always have to be moving and on your toes, even on a slow day. Every busser knows that you dont have time to wash your hands all the time, wipe them on a rag and go serve the bread. Run behind and you'll get yelled at by your manager. Don't have a spoon for the butter, use your fingers. You'll never know as the customer and it saves us time and money.

I have been a busser for a year and I am very good with customers and good at what I do. The only problem is I am very good with my coworkers who are white Americans and some Mexicans, and I'm an Asian. I think maybe because of the culture differences or I just feel so awkward with them, however which I don't feel with customers. I am trying not to take personal and be kind with them most time. Eventually I found out that I don't talk that much with my coworkers, as I am the kind of person who likes to work hard and speak when it's necessary. I'm really trying treating my coworkers the same way I treat my customers to build a good relationship with them and also to get good tips, as they are the servers who tips me a busser. I'm just writing this thing up here to just open up my mind, and hopefully I'll become good with them and a good server in future.

Aways walk around the store and be vigilent about empty plates are water glasses that need to be refilled. Do not tay in the kitchen for a long time. Just take the dirty dishes to the washer and get out. Be quick but careful. My second day i was carrying freshl cleaned wine glasses to the bar and a customer open the bathroom door really fast it knocked down all the glass and broke. So just be aware of your surroundings and be careful. you will get the hang of it soon :) Manchester United Videos

I am a busser now. I learned that a busser will get a lot of work to do for high paced restaurants compared to smaller restaurants with smaller menu options. I work from 2 PM through 10 PM and I enjoy it a lot. I don't have to serve appetizers to customers and I don't have servers to work in team. I do me and take care of it all. I am glad I don't work in those type of restaurants. Not worth the low minimum wage.

This is light compared to where I work. We have about 200 tables with 2 bus boys, me and another guy. Seriously we are super bussers, because we lack other bussers we really have to go not a extra mile but extra mile's. We have to take care of all the tables while maintaining the diner floors; E.G sweeping, bathroom checks every hour, answer customer questions, while we are busting tables and we can take on more duties for under the table payouts E.G bar-backing, all the while we would be on a hour and a half wait. Our tubs are massive each easily weighing 40-60 pounds the tub would be over flowing. After the wait is done and over which is usually about closing, we help dish out and finish that up after that we stack the dishes up and then take out the garbage which if not all of them would weigh about 40 pounds. All of our servers are lazy,inconsiderate, and incompetent. So usually our workload is insane. Most spots the buss boys are really not that valuable or could be replaced easily, but at my job without us the restaurant fails. We've went on strike before on a shift because they would not give us a red-bull on a chaotic Saturday we both stopped working, and everything in the dining room went to shit until we got what we wanted and the flow started to ramp back up again. The only reason why I deal with it so much is because of good pay. You have to get work at a in demand restaurant to make good money as a buss boy. Every Fri,sat,sun and Thurs with my check I make about 750 close to 800 a week this is with a automatic tip-share so we are automatically tipped out no matter what and don't have to worry about not getting tipped for the day plus big tips for bar backing such as 40 bucks a night and we pray on our weak servers at closing, they never want to do their chores at the end of the night so we do it for them each for 15 bucks a pop. at the end of a sat night I am walking away with about 180 same as for Sunday and Friday is kind of week, I would walk out with about 140 and Thursdays are always bs, i call this the open up day. It opens us up and prepare us for the chaotic days ahead of us, we would make a measly 110 bucks that night all of these days are including tip-share, I work at outbackstakehouse.

When first in the restaurant business. Obviously started out as a Busser. Seemed ok. I had no Complaints. Clear tables & get rid of dirty plates from Customers. Loved it very much. Currently. As a Dishwasher. Do i miss Bussing? Somewhat. Ok. perhaps a lot. I miss the Interaction with the Customers. Cleaning the Tables i really missed doing. Either way. Got no regrets as being a Dishwasher. Of course i get my shares of spills & what not. Than again. Who Doesn,t. The kitchen like a Mess. Specially the area where they have the Tortilla Chips.

Ive been bussing at millers ale house for a year now. On a street named kirkman right across the street from Universal studios. So we get SLAMMED. And bussing there I gotta get the stuff from the tables go to the dishpit wipe the tables, sweep if need be. Then gotta keep an eye on garbage because thats my job too. So at the end of the night I could take out like 30 Cans sometimes if i dont have help. I have to do it throughout the shift which is an issue if we're slammed and were on a wait because now this garbage run took me 20 mins and now the restaurants full of tables. Then we gotta take the plates from the patio because theyre so busy and we get tipped by them so yeah. But i get so busy with everything else that the plates stack super high and its heavy as hell. Its a lot to deal woth restaurant life isnt easy. So please give us a break some of us are having a hard time even moving

I love how people in the comments are saying “people that are disgusted by how he touched food with dirty hands hasn’t worked in a restaurant before.” Yet I’m disgusted by it and I do work at a restaurant and I was too a busser... just because a job is busy doesn’t mean you should ignore basic hygiene... like would you want to feed your family food that was mans handled by someone’s bare hands after they touched dirty plates and seats. At my job which I’m now a host and bus on occasion I like to quickly give a nice wash before dealing with food and I understand sometimes you have to rush but there is always an alternative like for example using tongs to pick up the chips instead of hands and everything... and I saw one comment state how they scooped ice with the cup... this is also bad for the fact that the cup could possibly chip and that’s why we use scoops.
