I never wrote anything down and could handle a 50 + party by myself. I trained many and I mean many who couldn't even get a table of 6 order right even when writing it down. It used to baffle me.

I can't handle more than 4 without writing it down, but I'm old and I drink too much, so there's that. But I know I need to write it down, and hence the service is still great. And yeah, I get you on names, I can barely remember the regulars, but remember their drinks, but as a note to the good service they receive, they always remember my name.

[@Justin-rs1ug]

99% of the time the people who care arent promoted and thats why companies fail they think "oh this persons been here for 8 years they deserve a promotion" but they dont care ignore issues and let things fail because they arent "leaders" as a manager needs to be

[@samoanjoseph1457]

I feel like the only reason Corrie was there for 3 years was because her boss was too busy playing games to notice she wasn't actually working. And even if he had noticed, she only would have been one of several people that wasn't working, including him, so she is right in that she wasn't the worst offender, he was. But since he's the owner, firing him would have been trickier.

Wear and tear, if you don’t get paid for the work you put in, you stop caring. It’s a vicious cycle, if one aspect of the circle isn’t happy, the rest will soon rotate to that. The ones that are craziest for me are the ones where the bartenders do not get paid.

[@Sumguyinavan_]

This is exactly what I loved about these rescue series. Every crappy failing job has employees who really care, try hard, want to learn and do better. There are always people who want to elevate the place they work for so they can be proud of everything about it, not just their own performance. They are the ones who should be 'head of', 'supervisor', 'manager' because they are the ones who will encourage good workers to stick around, pick up the pace and standards of subpar workers, and give everyone a fire to be better today. Every business rescue depends on finding your rockstars, getting everyone up to their standards, and not slacking off once the money comes back.

Ashley is the kind of bartender that makes people want to come back to wherever she's working, because of her skills, personality, professional demeanor , sense of humor .. to put it simply she makes you feel like you want to be there. I get the impression she is the kind of bartender that actually looks after her customers knows what they like., but also knows when to cut them off for their own safety and would go out of her way to make sure they got home in one piece. She is literally bartender royalty.. a person who cannot only do the job, but also teach a complete newcomer not only the basics but also bring them up in skill level as well without feeling threatened.

[@Magnum062]

Good on the positive changes. That Corrie girl is an example of what infuriates me. I hate when lazy people use the excuse of low pay or lack of acknowledgement for poor work habits. If it's that bad then leave that job. Staying and having poor performance only brings down the business and pisses of your coworkers that actually are trying to do well while you are coasting. I myself and sure plenty of others reading this have worked next to people like her and hated it.
