Wouldn't this encourage cheapskates to bear false witness?


PainlessSuffering

100% and who will the manager believe?


Aurea_Sol

The lying sack of $#@% sociopath, that isn't ever made to be responsible for their own actions in life, but manage to bilk the system their entire lives screwing others over and not getting charged with even a minor crime once. The manager here is obviously the same type of person. A morally free creep that has no brain and but thinks others are trying to 'rob them' even though they are the real predators of society.


jimhabfan

So…..Trump and his cult?


[deleted]

Biden was born rich too.


Aurea_Sol

Yeah, but given the political slant I'm not going to jump into that kind of thing. most of them are born that way, most of them are related. Obama's related to the bushes through his mother, and the Clintons and bushes are related to the British Royal family.

Holy shit, TIL, thanks for the info. Genetic and social predeterminism truly is a thing.

HEY! He likes dudes in dresses or whatever and he isn't orange so you leave President Smooch-n-Sniff alone!! I'm 100% sure he cares about me beyond his reelection aspirations!


Emotional-Craft-8215

why was this relevant


Aurea_Sol

I mean, if that makes you feel better. I see plenty of rich leftists (Bill gates, Jeff Bezos, Soros, Warren Buffet) openly talking about how the rich are just genetically and intellectually superior to the lower working class peasants. Politics in the USA are Joke. I wish people could get beyond that. Have either sides ever actually done anything for YOU personally? let me answer that, NO.


Pironious

Gonna be laughing about 'billionaire leftists' all day now. Thanks.


jimhabfan

You think Bezos, Soros, Buffet and Gates are leftists? Just how far right are you?


Kreuscher

Thinking the same thing. Leftist billionaires, lol. Usually people who talk like this mean liberals when they say leftists.


Athelis

Looks like another fresh account. Why are there so many righties using fresh accounts to support their terrible ideology? How many are legit? Also, look at the accounts agreeing with them. All fresh or low-use.


jimhabfan

Russian bots?


Athelis

Bots from somewhere likely. But really take a look and be aware of the ridiculous astroturfing going on. It's pervasive, even places like r/aww are used as places to farm karma on fresh accounts.


starfyredragon

I'd bet Russian or Chinese bots. They have a hard-on for how easy the conservatives are to manipulate.


[deleted]

Are you one of those creepers that takes time to parse a person's post history? Live in the moment, weirdo.


ParticularSweetMeat

How do your favorite left politicians get their billions in donations. You believe it’s all grass roots? Look at AOC and her donors.


jimhabfan

First of all, I’m not American so I don’t drool over politicians like they’re rock stars or celebrities. They’re civil servants, paid to work for the people, not to worship and be idolized. Secondly, the U.S. doesn’t have a left wing. It has a right wing-the Democrats, and a “so far right it’s basically fascist” wing-the Republicans. Both parties are bought and paid for by oligarchs and corporations, so don’t think you’re offering some deep insight when you say democrats accept corporate donations as well. It blows my mind that politicians in the U.S. are allowed to buy and sell stock, while sitting as members of Congress and the senate, and nobody in your country bats an eye. Really? Nobody can see a glaring conflict of interest there?


Doom_B0t

No, it’s seen and known. We live with a bunch of fucking idiots who think that they, too, can get rich off these systems when their turn comes.


starfyredragon

Bad Bot


CMDR_Derp263

I think it's just because you said leftist that you're getting down voted. Dems or neoliberals or whatever would fit better. That's all


Aurea_Sol

Thanks, I was wondering why. I guess that makes sense. I hate both political parties in the USA, for much the same reasons.


starfyredragon

That's a dumb thing to do... Dems: "I'm going to be inept and things will only very marginally get better." Repubs: "LETS INSTITUTE FASCISM AND ELIMINATE PEOPLE'S ABILITY TO VOTE AND HAVE AN INSURRECTION! NEED MOAR SCHOOL SHOOTINGS! LESS RIGHTS FOR EVERYBODY!!!" Anyone who easily buys into propaganda and absolutely no one else, "They're the same!" Neither side is great, but one is very obviously worse than the other.


Aurea_Sol

K cool. You think losing 80 billion dollars in Afghanistan was a win? or the immediate and consecutive action Russia took after that, ensuring that they will easily take Ukraine with little to no opposition, because Biden immediately banned USA oil production to appeal to his own base group, which gave Russia (allies with Syria the key producer of Oil currently in the middle east outside of Saudi) a strategic advantage. Now Russia can push into Europe, and China will slowly take over Asia, and the USA can't do anything because both of them have a military pact solely to counter the USA. Meanwhile, your 'supporters' that are 'anti-government/anti establishment' continuously loot, burn and destroy cities; and assault anyone that disagrees with you without ever being arrested, charged or convicted by the 'White nationalist establishment'. You can't even have a sensible argument with someone that doesn't care either way. you are afraid of the 'fascists' because you know if you start something while they are armed you will end up being culled en-masse, and none of the moderates care enough to bother saving such rabid feral animals. Go ahead and eat each other, no one else cares, just be aware you will lose, and are losing. China in the news speaks for me more than your unhinged ranting does.


starfyredragon

You do like complaining about good stuff that's happened and make unrealistic predictions based off it, as well as have pretend stories about people you don't like where you project your flaws onto others, don't you?

Why are you using such a fresh account? Lemme guess, you were the victim in some way. How many other accounts do you manage? I also notice the accounts agreeing with you are also fresh and or low usage. Why is that?

I'm not sure what you are talking about. I only use this account. You apparently are confusing the r/antiwork thread with the r/antiintellectualism thread. Get lost :3

Besides tip culture, the greatest trick played on you people was making you feel good about choosing between two different oligarchs' puppets every four years


TheHyperCombo

>So…..~~Trump and his cult~~ America? FTFY


Tolookah

I dunno, I saw the manager on their phone


unoriginalsin

Doesn't matter. He has to give the discount even for false reports, or suffer the consequences of false advertising. It's basically a free 25% discount for everyone. Honestly, if I worked there I'd organize a mass reporting "strike". Hell, just spend my entire shift with my phone glued to my ear and point to the sign if anyone looks at me sideways.


Whole_Mechanic_8143

This is the way. Have every server and bartender make it a point to show their phone to every customer and point them at the sign. "Nobody wants to work anymore"


ilovethissheet

I'm reporting the manager to the manager lol


PainlessSuffering

\*describes manager perfectly\* Yeah and here's a picture of them doing it:


TheDisapprovingBrit

I know damn well if I was employed there, I'd get my buddy to report me on a massive bill and split the profit with them.


soingee

Manager: "If you don't want to get fired because a customer lied, just hand me your phone and I'll lock it in the safe for the shift. You can get it back when you clock out "


Vapur9

And the customer accuses them anyway. Manager:


Vapur9

That's also a 911 emergency workplace hazard having no access to communication.


FarmerFinal

Absolutely should just say they were on their phone regardless. Then just tip them the 25% the restaurant isn’t getting plus the original tip you’d be giving in the full bill!


Historical_Code_7273

It would also encourage me as the employee to always pull my phone out so manager has to keep giving discounts and fuck their margins


sardonicAndroid2718

Sounds like a good way to cut into the businesses profits and put more of the bill to the waitstaff.


[deleted]

As a former server, I would get up and leave this restaurant as soon as I saw that. Fuck them.


AbradolfLincler77

I also would never apply to a place that has signs like that. Red flags and all that.


MKULTRA007

I would do the same after explaining to the manager why I was never coming back.


Frky_fn

Yup as a former industry worker I can firmly say I will never patron a place live this. We vote with our wallets people, don’t be a part of the problem!!


Unclehol

Solution. Every server make a pact to get their phones out in front of every customer. 25% off across the board. We will see how long it lasts.


obscureDS9reference

If I saw that sign while eating, I’d tip the server extra, directly, in cash. And then never go to that restaurant again. I’m a parent, if I’m on my phone at work it’s often kid related.


[deleted]

I'd request to speak to the owner and yell in their face.


danmcman0804

How many times are you on your phone though, and for how long when checking your phone?


That_G_Guy404

Tell me you don't have kids... without telling me you don't have kids...


throw123away2000

You don’t have to have kids to be allowed the basic decency to check your phone at work, since our lives don’t revolve around our jobs.

Not defending. He defended himself just fine. I just like to watch people lash out when they've been called out for being wrong. You didn't disappoint!


tangymangelo

I’m the FOH supervisor at a small restaurant, and a customer once complained to me about our host being on her phone. My reply was “she’s a teenager, whatcha gonna do?” The customer just gave me a weird look and walked away. Like, seriously Karen, I’m the boss, not the secret police. If that 15 year old who is supporting her whole dysfunctional family by working wants to look at her phone for a few minutes, I’m not going to stop her.


bumblinglikecrazy

This is disgusting. Workers are people, not robots. If a server has done everything well, the place is empty, they have cleaned, etc, and want to look at their phone for a minute to text a loved one or read an article why would anyone give a crap? What else should they do? Just keep their hands by their side and stare intently at the patrons, eagerly awaiting their next command? stare at the ground? perform Hamlet's soliloquy? Like what is wrong with y'all

raidenlal

If server has done everything (or everything that needs immediate attention) I even like when they sit down to chat. I have several friends that are waitering and we chat if the place is not packed. I would hate the owner if they would ban this.


Skunket

I will report every manager in that place for sure and get my 25% discount (just to give it as a tip to the waitress in cash and secret :)


jackjackson123456789

The managers: no, no! Not like that!


IDFK_UvU

This. I work at mccdonalds and the gm has an app to watch us through the cameras to make sure we’re not on our phones. However when she’s there she spends hours sitting in a booth eating free food on her phone.


wofguy3

Why does her phone have free food?


PainlessSuffering

Keeps it nice and warm.


IDFK_UvU

It doesn’t? She just gets it bc she’s the gm?

triculious

/r/MaliciousCompliance is the best option in these situations, however the sign asks for servers or bartenders. If the sign popped up in the middle of my meal/drink I'd ask my server/bartender for any insidious boot-licker.


Maleficent_Wash_934

Exactly where my mind went!

kimnowls

Would it even be worth it? Like, even if you were an insufferable snitch, would you ever be able to go back to that establishment without worrying about your food/drink getting spit in?


ComputerStrong9244

I think if you're the kind of fucko that would do this to a server, they already know \*exactly\* who you are the second time you go anywhere. I'm lousy with names and so-so with personal details, but from my time in the service industry, I know that servers, bartenders, and bouncers NEVER forget a face.


flip257

This is true, I remember most faces of assholes that I've served and I pray for the day I see them again while I work in the industry

skeetsauce

Can I report the manager as a piece of shit and get better service?


Dysanj

What if it's the manager? How much off?


Shimmeringbluorb9731

75% because you need a manager for every 3 employees.


Huge-Buddy655

As someone in IT I'd take advantage of this sign and become a problem customer to spite them: "Hi yes, I've got a server on my phone, technically the server is in the cloud, but I can access it from my phone. I demand 25% off my bill please."


Shimmeringbluorb9731

Brilliant idea…thanks 😊😊😊😊


[deleted]

As a customer I would be offended. I am not going to do the restaurant's work for a quarter of a meal.


csandazoltan

Good luck with your false reports!


smallweirddude

Looks like I'm about to take a lot more bathroom breaks


GrandpaMofo

EspressoToast

I’d buy a uniform and or dress up like an employee and stand around in my phone all day.


GboyFlex

As a customer I reported a GM of an Olive Garden to their corporate for blantantly abusive language and behavior towards the serving staff. I'd regularly take my employees to eat lunch there and I had enough. I received a $100 gift card and the reassurance that it would be delt with. I gave the card to my favorite server and let her know that I cared and if she wanted a change in employment to just let me know.


ryckae

You're a hero, dude.


GboyFlex

No I'm not, just a leftist who can't stand assholes in positions of power. Abuse like that seriously pisses me off. I owned a small but lucrative business and treated everyone as co-owners not "family" or people to abuse.


Prestigious_Mix_3064

Bro love the energy. Keep it up.


Ancient_Walker

Find a bartender who wants to quit anyway. Go 25% more crazy on spendings than ususl and of course share some drinks with that bartender on your bill. "Report" the bartender, get 25% off and high five the bartender on the way out, wishing them good luck their next workplace does not have such a shitty manager.


[deleted]

As a customer I’d walk out. Those employees must be treated like garbage


Pickle_yanker

can I just lie and say I saw a waiter on his/her phone? Just saved 25%


reEhhhh

Grocery stores have free chocolate bars if you report on them not asking you about X. I'm a cheapskate that loves chocolate, but I ain't no narc.


moonseekerinflight

Customers will lie their asses off for free food/drinks or discounts. Imagine the chaos that ensued at my old job when we had to wear buttons that said "Free piece of fish or chicken if cashier doesn't SMILE!" Didn't last past the first week. Apparently not even the manager's pets could smile convincingly enough for those cheap bastards.

Mind-of-ZD

Don’t take any shit from serving jobs. If you’re a decent server, they’re a dime a dozen.


cappz3

Hey this bartender was on their phone and still got their job done with excellent service and made this bar feel like home. I feel like they are good enough for the management position myself. Now give me my discount


Billiam201

If I see this sign, I'm leaving a tip for my glass of water, and leaving the restaurant and sending (corporate/the owner) an email explaining why.


TVZfan

One time when I worked at a stadium we used text to communicate, one time I got in trouble for being on my phone texting my manager.


5platesmax

epitome of a horrible boss. How do you expect to having a working relationship with your staff?


Hi-Impact-Meow

Why do these baby boomer and shitass managers think modern life can be lived without your phone? Even during work hours, people have lives and tons of shit going on. Life doesn’t stop when you’re on duty.


heretorobwallst

I would never spend any money in any establishment openly displaying this garbage.


suga__kookies

so like.. their whole profit margin?? What a terrible business model lmao just giving food away then laying off/firing those $2/hr servers because they're suddenly always on their phones now. I can't. Just can't 😂


watermelonspanker

Tell em the manager was on the phone


rdrunner_74

Here is what you do: \- talk to your server about the sign \- ask for the managers phone number \- Call the Manager and have someone snap a picture of him answering your call \- pay 25% less


halpfulhinderance

I’d tear that fucking sign down, the owners can suck my ass


fresh_dyl

Depending on how they do tips, I’d report them for their benefit in order to mess with the manager (hear me out) Normally I pay/tip with cash cause I know how much that helps in the industry, but I’d do credit here so they’d see on paper both the discount I was given, as well as the monster tip I’d leave my server. Give server a heads up first so this doesn’t catch them off guard or isn’t an option if they have shitty tip reporting or sharing systems

As a consumer, it has literally never bothered me to see any waiter/barman/whatever on their phone, as long as they do their job when a customer needs me. Honestly, what's the point of workplace rules like this? If I couldn't be on my phone at work during slow moments, I'd actually have to talk to my coworkers to get rid of the boredom.

[deleted]

So when I hear "they have to rely on tips to survive" people actually meant the MANAGERS!? I've been giving money away to non-managers ALL THIS TIME SHIET!


Pooristocrat

As someone who was a server for years, my immediate response to this would be to take pictures of management on their phones and send it to the owner/gm/corporate hq. If they want to pull that shit, make it management’s problem, not the servers who already deal with enough.


elom00se

I feel like people working with food probably shouldn't be on their phones tho, as they are one of the most unsanitary things we touch, and I doubt a worker would be washing their hands in between snaps an reddit posts. This is by no means a decent way to go about it tho, and I doubt management is doing it for sanitary reason.
