100+ people and 4 servers

The other day a huge storm hit our area and we’re still dealing with power outages. Last night I guess the company employing those working on repairs decided to treat their employees to dinner. I won’t specify where I work but let’s just say it was a kangaroo kick to the teeth.

Since it was a Wednesday we only had 4 servers on and thankfully the rush started coming in before any of us had gotten cut. Most came in groups of 4-6 with one 20 top. Everyone was so nice and understanding about their food taking longer than normal and they all tipped well! It was still a hell of a shift running things and staying late but I think we did handled it way better than any of us expected. Definitely my most lucrative shift to date at this restaurant.

G’day mates!
