The summer after I graduated from high school, I worked in the restaurant of a Marriott hotel. A lot of the time there would be business men staying at the hotel for weeks at a time, and they would spend quite a bit of time in the hotel bar. They were generally nice and tipped well, so we didn't really mind that they…

Why wouldn't I?

I'm writing this one FOR a server that a man I was with harassed. I was out with my boyfriend, who I had only been dating a few weeks at the time, and his friend from grad school who was in town visiting. Our server was a woman who was probably around my age, and both of the men I was with are a bit older. At the end…

I have a sexual harassment work story I think it's interesting, but I'm not a waitress. I work with people with developmental disabilities. I hope no one's offended; last time I told a story about work where I portrayed one of the people I work with in a negative light, lots of people here were offended. I'm very much…

Oh god, I have sooo many gross pervy customer /coworker/boss stories from my years working in the service industry. The one that sticks out the most was when I was working at a sports bar on a military base. I was alone (my manager was in another part of the building, which was huge, doing some paperwork) when three…

Yeeessss. I have been not tipped before by men I very politely declined numerous times, but the one that bugs me the most is a guy who wanted my number despite my being engaged (in case things don't work out!) and wrote FRIGID BITCH on the receipt with the 0 tip because I was not trying to make backup plans.

When I was a cocktail server, a dude said, "I finally figured out why you wear those big hoop earrings....you use them to measure every guy's dick in here, and when you find one wide enough, you fuck him."

Hah, "I'm like the Picasso of not getting any, but I think I'm moving into a Dali phase."

You're an asshole, but I suspect you know that already.

Do you like a REALLY good 100% angus cheeseburger? I know I do. But you know, I don't think I'd enjoy having like 10/day for many years straight. I also don't think I'd like it if 9/10 were actually 2 week old McDonald's "cheese"burgers. Yuck, no thanks.

Just because it is nice to occasionally get compliments or…

I started working a chain pancake joint when i was a quiet 16 year old virgin with long blonde hair, an ass and bigger boobs than most teens. i had my share of creepy stares and comments from new male employees (i once wore a button up shirt with a zipper instead of buttons and worked through an entire shift full of…

I worked at a grocery store in my teens. There was this one dude who (pretended that he) couldn't get his wallet out of his back pocket, because it was too big and he had crammed it in the pocket anyway. He asked me to help him get it out. I stood back and scoffed, saying nothing, but started to look for someone…

What kind of person PREFERS Mr. Pibb??

That Tampon Fairy story is the sweetest creepy thing ever! If someone bought me a box of the tampons I desperately needed but was not trying to let him know I desperately needed, my genuine reaction would be both "Gahhh" and "Thanks!"

Ugh on this topic. Sexual harassment is so common place for servers — whether from other staff, customers or both — that it's sickening.

This week's BCO!!! Yes!

I started waiting tables at 16. I was out of school and working 3 jobs, and I did not have time for this sort of bullshit. I started wearing a plain gold band On my left ring finger because I realized that smiling, shaking my head, and holding up my hand stopped a lot of guys cold. Also, it seemed more polite than…

Not leaving a tip is such bullshit. Like, it's not enough of a power trip for these guys to perv all over the servers, who can't leave and have to be polite and provide service. Nope, these assholes have to make sure their victims don't even get paid for doing their job while putting up with their nastiness.

There's a difference between bigotry and joking about a customer ruining their streak by cooking it well done on a ticket, you know.

Are you serious with this shit? Fuck off. For so many reasons that aren't worth explaining to you.
