When Hostess Went Wrong

Improved Essays
I took my mother to Chili’s today (5/7/16) for an early Mother’s Day lunch; the experience was embarrassing and unacceptable. The hostess takes us at a table with crumbs all over seat, before I say anything she gets a napkin and pushes all of the crumbs off the seat and onto the floor however, crumbs are still all over half of the table, I didn’t say anything to her. After we sat down our feet literally stuck to the ground, before opening the menu my hand and arm got very sticky from some substance on the table. I opened my menu with the inside inserted upside down from it not being stapled together and see dried BBQ sauce that is an inch thick from top to bottom right down the center, I walked to the front to exchange it and I politely hand the hostess the filthy menu and …show more content…
A second later the manager came over and handed me another tea, I asked him if he could look at the cup I was just handed, he picked the cup up from the other table and says “I don’t see nothing”, I pointed to it, and said “you do not see fresh red lipstick on the brim, you can even see the lip lines on it, it is not even smeared” he says “oh ya, I do see it, and he walks away. (I guarantee that the cup was taken from a busboys dirty bucket or off a dirty table; there is no way that cup ever touched water after the last person used it) I took a drink from the tea the manager brought and it was plain tea, not blackberry, no big deal I told the waiter thank you for the drink but it was plain tea, not blackberry- could I please get blackberry, he says “ok” and leaves, a minute later, he returns with a little plastic container of syrup and tells me to mix it in! The waiter would not come to our table and ask us if we were ready to order, after taking an order from another table -two times he looked over at our table and said very loudly from one to two booths away “Do you know what you want” while he was still standing at another

    The U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics concluded that an African American male born in 2001 has a 32% chance of going to jail in his lifetime, while a Latino male has a 17% chance, and a white male only has a 6% chance. Further research shows that in New York City, 80% of the stops made by the police were blacks and Latinos, and 85% of those people were frisked, compared to a mere number 8% of white people stopped and the number might be less than that. From a period where people of the colored race or the non-white were lined up and matched to the slave auction, to a period where colored and non-white people are the one getting most pullovers and frisking from the law keepers gives people the reality that racism is here to stay.…

    My big home project was accomplished at Chase High School instead of it being completed at my home. Mrs. Kraus provided me and a fellow student ( Ashlyn Cox) the opportunity to clean the concession stand in the gymnasium so it would be clean for the Prom. We cleansed the concession stand with Oxygen Orange which is an all purpose cleaner and can clean almost anything. Prior to heading to the location we gathered four wash rags and we each had our own bottle of Oxygen Orange. When we arrived to the concession stand it was an absolute mess.…

    As many food service businesses should know, it is nearly impossible to avoid an outbreak of some sort forever. Unfortunately, Chipotle Mexican Grill is no exception. Since its founding, Chipotle’s claim to fame has been “food with integrity,” meaning you not only wanted to know where the food you were serving was coming from, you wanted to know how it was raised. This gesture sets such high expectations with yourself and with consumers. Although, high expectations are not necessarily a negative thing, when set exceedingly high and continually raised, the smallest unfortunate event, even an accident, can cause harm if handled incorrectly like the incident in October.…

    On Sunday the 18th of September I was terminated from Texas Road House. Although the managers may have said their part of the story, I believe my explanation of the event has yet to be heard. Here is what happened in my perspective: I picked up and carried a “follow” tray of food to 114, a table that belonged to Alexis B. As I reached the table she can acknowledged that I was waiting for her to finish and I waited so that the rest of the food could be distributed. I noticed that the tray she had on the Tray Jack that once carried the first round of food had now been cluttered with emptied bowls and glasses to make room for the entrees.…

    Breaking the norm is when someone does something out of the ordinary. For example, when someone calls the wrong number I could pretend to be the person they intended to call or by eating your soup with a fork, either way I would be doing something abnormal. For my experiment I wanted to see people’s reactions to me eating dessert before the main course. In order to test this, I tried my experiment in two different settings, I had dinner at Buffalo Wild Wings with my friends and at my parents’ house with my parents and siblings. My hypothesis for Buffalo Wild Wings was that the waitress would ask me if I wanted the main course prior to my dessert and my family will and friends will question and make fun of me.…

    The decor of the microbrewery is fantastic! It has pipes, valves, fans, pulleys and gears all over the restaurant to add to the junkyard look. I really loved the lighting of the place, the miniature cars and vans around the restaurant, and the vintage Harley Davidson bikes that were on display; it really added to the party and cozy atmosphere. I’d even recommend you to check out the toilets to see the designs of the bains and taps. They were so well decorated!…

    There are three halls and three of us, so each feeding assistant was assigned to one hall. That day something came up and we were not able to finish our ice on all three halls, so after we fed the residents supper we were expected to finish the ice on our break. We finished supper and cleaned up and it was time to finish ice, but the other two girls said they did not want to do it yet and that the residents don’t even drink the water anyway. I took this comment, as they were not going to finish passing out the ice, so I took the matter into my hands and told them I was going to do my hall and they should start on theirs. Once had I finished my hall, I saw that they hadn’t done a thing and continued to sit in the break room, so I began on the other two halls.…

    Although many of Billy Collins’ short poems feature a first-person perspective, readers should not necessarily assume that the voice belongs to the poet himself. Indeed, at times, Collins speaks in the voice of a distinct character whose experiences and thoughts reveal a specific situation and crisis. In “The Waitress,” for example, the speaker’s observations indicate that he dines out often enough to recognize the behaviours common to restaurant servers, but the detail of his description suggests that observing the waitress on this occasion has become a personally meaningful activity. The speaker’s detailed observation of his apparently indifferent waitress gives way to a romantic fantasy that reveals him to be a lonely man contemplating…

    On Saturday October 5, 2015, I approach the bench at Walmart in Dumfries, Virginia. Before I sat down on the bench I saw a little girl running towards her mother asking for a Slurpee from Subway that’s located inside Walmart. I heard the little girl mother said” Wait a minute Isabell, I need to put these groceries in the car first”. I was located at the front entrance on the left side of the building. I selected this particular place because it’s a busy place to shop and get to see all activities from different strangers.…
