Please drop the best gifs of the day here and feel free to direct me elsewhere.
Also, I made more in tips today than I've made before and we weren't even busy. HOW YOU LIKE DEM APPLES!!!
I also have to pull what's called an SA shift on Saturday. For all you people who haven't worked in a restaurant, it means I have to pull the food out of the window, check that it's correct as written on the ticket, agree that it's correct and then get someone to take it out. I am nervous as fuck about this shift, yo so you people need to pray for my sanity and pray that I have good cooks on grill that morning because some of those grill cooks might need their faces melted off, I'm just saying.
I bet there is a randoms thread I could have dropped this in, huh?
"Not gonna lie; I kind of keep expecting you to post one day that you threw down on someone who clearly had no idea that today was NOT THEIR DAY." ~dontcallmeshirley
And how did you get that shift already? You must be good. I worked at houli's for a long time and never had that gig.
I haven't done anything about the dryer yet. Mr man thinks it might be the plug. I guess we'll figure it out later. As for the washer, the current solution is to wash clothes anyway and then turn off the water between loads. Lame-O but I'm too tired to think of better solutions until my days off come around again.
And dude, I WANTED TO KNOW THE SAME THING! It's not even two months and I went in there today asking people WHAT THE FUCK! But it's because no one wants the SA shifts. The servers want their damned tips and get pissed if you stick them in the window, especially the higher level ones. CB rates all of their servers based on time at the position, acquired skills, and ongoing training. The more stars, the better you are. The higher star servers will not SA. They hate it and they bitch loud and long. So they're always sticking one and two stars up in the window.
I will tell you this much, let a server get mouthy with me because I suck at SAing. I don't want to hear it. Tell it to the dude who made the schedule and get the fuck off me. Also, go get some damned biscuits and run this fucking food, okay? Okay.
It's going to be a great morning lolol. Saturday morning too which is heavy volume at a CB.
Just a teensy sprinkling. Actually, you can buy the same mix they use in the kitchen in the store. Same thing, I promise. They grill them in margarine though. So ignore the pinterest recipes promising CB knock off pancakes and just go buy the box at the CB store.
I've beer eaten at CB. I hear it's like comfort food sprinkled with crack. Is it true that they have great stocking stuffers too?
Amazingly, that store has all kinds of shit. I'd never really looked in there before working there but it's cool, imo and the prices are really pretty good. From what I understand, we sell a nice brand of cast iron for cheaper than walmart or target does. And we gift wrap and ship. The prices for shipping are based on what you spend, not how heavy. I bought all of pinky's presents there. They have all kinds of stuff too, jewelry, scarves, toys, stuffed animals, all types of candy, cast iron skillets, ceramic wear, etc.

And now I sound like a serious CB shill lol
Lol - thanks. Oh and I meant eaten there, not "beer there."
LOL trust me, I knew what you meant. Speaking of which, I always feel bad for lg28's cousins when they come to visit. They are adorably befuddled by our lack of alcohol on the menu and they don't know what half the shit is. "What is this 'country fried steak'? Is it like sirloin?"
Nope! lol
Do you know how hard it is to explain chicken fried chicken/steak to people who are unfamiliar with the concept?
I have a soft spot in my heart for "the Barrel", as we call it in my house. We only ever pass one on road trips, but chicken with dumplins and dumplins and dumplins and dumplins will always remain a travel staple.
Being informed that we are out of chicken for chicken and dumplings and will be on a wait before we get more is one of the top five causes of anxiety up in the barrel.

I still don't understand chicken fried steak myself. Lol.
Firstly, I PPH CB. Love it. Especially the grilled tenders, so I second the request for their secret. And the mac and cheese. Yum.
Second, I was just there for friends and family night (a patient works at one and told us to come up, so I went with some coworkers) and got some awesome stuff. A sweater for DH, some OSU t-shirts for 6 bucks (then an extra 30% off that!)....lots of cute stuff super cheap.
Third, I used to expedite orders when I worked at a restaurant, which sounds a lot like what you're doing. Read tickets as they come in before the cooks get them, have all your sauces and extra stuff lined up in the order they should come out, and have absolutely no qualms about yelling through the window that someone's screwing up and they need to get their shit out, quick. I actually loved that job. It'll get overwhelming, but you can always fix a plate, and if you're busy it'll go by so quickly you won't have time to realize how freaked out you are.
I can go to her store and listen for yelling that would make a great Saturday morning? Also, the first time I went to CB I ordered chicken fried steak and was shocked at what came out.
I just took DD to CB yesterday for lunch and got the new salad. Wow, that was a good salad. The one with chicken and sweet potato straws. If I worked at CB I would weigh 800 pounds.
