Thinking about returning to the restaurant industry guys.... so this blog might be up and running again lol 😂
Summer can be a really stressful time when working in restaurants... I no longer post on here because I quit, but if you have any hostess rants, feel free to submit them on here!!
Guys, I don’t work as a hostess anymore. I quit and haven’t worked there for nearly a month now. So I won’t be ranting on here anymore. However, feel free to submit your own rants to this blog, and I’ll publish them :) :) (I will keep this blog up)
Saturday nights are hellish
Customer: Hi, we have a reservation for 4 tonight.
Hostess: Ma'am I’m sorry but we don’t take reservations unless it’s 8 or more.
Customer: oh I’m sorry hun I meant to say 4 for outside under the covered patio.
Hostess:Ma'am there’s a line of people waiting to be seated.
Customer: oh but we already know what table we want and everything and my daughter she can’t stand in that line she’s pregnant. Manager:what’s going on here ? Hostess:*whispers to manager* these people came in here claiming they had reservations for 4 and after I told them we don’t take reservations for anything less then 8 she told she made a mistake and meant to say she wanted a table for 4 outside on the patio .
Manager: okay… So tell her to wait in line.
Hostess:they don’t want to Wait in line cause the daughter is pregnant and they already know what table they want .
Manager: *pulls up a chair* Ma'am have a seat the patio is full but as soon as a table opens up we will let you know :) *mumbles under breath* f*ing shit.
Hostess: did you just trick them into waiting in line?
Manager:…Yeah?
No more being yelled at by servers for double seating them. No more wait-listing. No more shifts every single Saturday. No more “please wait to be seated” signs that I have to move to the centre of the entryway so that customers will at least notice it (but they don’t anyways). No more bussing tables with dirty napkins (who knows what they’ve been used for). No more being yelled at for telling people to wait five minutes. No more asking every single person if they want to switch shifts and having them say “no” every time. No more hostessing. Saying good bye to the hostess life :) and goodbye to this tumblr :( / :)
And I did it. I quit. You’d think that I wouldn’t feel bad about it… but I did. I’m the type of person who cares about her job even if she hates it. My managers were awesome. They were always so encouraging and supportive towards their employees. The last thing I wanted to do was let them down. I had to though, because I need to have time for me and I’m going to school and falling behind because I’m so stressed out… This job is honestly so draining. I’m so glad I’m leaving. But I’m really sorry about it because I know that my managers depended on me. Bittersweet. I guess this ends my hostessrants tumblr.
So done
I'm so done with this job I swear I might just quit
When a server is having a bad day, and doesn't want to take tables, I'd much rather have them tell me that - than yell at me for seating them when it's not even busy in their section.
Leaving. Might come back to work after school. Currently going on LOA for now.
Manager: We're open on Christmas Day & you're all going to work during that day :) Nobody can book it off.
Hostess Rant.
When people from a large party decide that they are going to just “grab another booth” or “put their drinks down on another table” and sit there temporarily because it’s empty. No. Please. Don’t do that. Please sit at the tables we chose for you when you made the reservation. When we sat you, and placed the menus out for you at those tables… It was not a suggestion that you sit there. There are other people who need to sit down at a table and eat too, you know. So stay where we put you, please. End. Rant.
Just finished my shift after 1 am… Worked overtime. A large reso took up 1/3 of the restaurant, and some people stayed and partied for the whole night (7+ hours)… So there was no place to seat, and I ended up double seating some servers in other sections, who also had large parties… One server got mad at me.
Our managers don't even give anyone the option of booking of Christmas Day. Everyone has to work that day. It's depressing...
LOL when people still go ahead and seat themselves at tables even though there's a reserve sign on all of them.
People are more rude and entitled than they've ever been...
Dear customers, when I tell you that you can go ahead and sit and the bar - that booth over there is not considered the bar. That table is not part of the bar. Just because it's beside the bar, that does not mean it is the bar...
Hostessing Pt 2
Customer: Smile! ... You look like you don't like working here
Me: *trying to smile*
Customer: that's better!
Me: ...
