Oh. I always thought that a Rachel substituted turkey for the corned beef. In doing some research it seems that a "Reuben" is, depending where you are, either corned beef or pastrami, and a "Rachel" is, depending where you are, either pastrami or turkey. In my experiences (living in Oklahoma, Philadelphia, Baltimore,…

that's usually code for turkey-bacon.

I KNEW one of these fuckers would show up. I just fucking KNEW it.

RETURN OF THE EGG WARS!!!!!!!!!

I like eggs in almost every way, can I still have a weapon?

This is the exact sentiment I preach out to my "super smart in engineering but seriously how can you be so damn naive" friends.

My family had a health food store when I was growing up, we always ate very healthy in my house. One Thanksgiving my father prepared an absolutely delicious dinner with all of the traditional trappings, turkey and sweet potatoes and rolls and fresh cranberry sauce etc etc. One of his brothers showed up with his wife…

Why would you put marbles into rind bread? And why would I want rind bread anyway? I want the soft part of the bread - not the rind.

"No, ma'am, actually the sun is going to remain in its place as it has for millions of years. The Earth, however, will continue spinning and proceeding on its orbit as planned; would you like me to ask a manager to pull the emergency brake?"

"A reuben on wheat which he ate with no complaints."

I don't know why anyone is surprised that the group of 40 had no qualms about not calling ahead! Hell, they thought the SUN should stand still for them.

I know splitting checks can be a pain, especially on certain POS systems, but I think the tips tend to be better when everyone is doing their own bill instead of throwing in based on the group total.

A walk-in 40... I'm crying. I'm crying for the server. I'm crying for the host and bussers who had to put that table together. How does a group of 40 people not have a single person in it that says MAYBE THIS IS A BAD IDEA AND MAYBE THIS IS RUDE.

I think it's the thought process of assholes. I replied to someone on another kitchenette post who didn't want min. wage to be raised, bc her uneducated brother would make the same pay that she does, as a person with a degree. It seemed to totally fucking escape her that she should be pissed at being underpaid,…

It's par for the course. I only do so when I recover from my fainting couch, as the staggering amount of $15/hour caused me to pass out. What would I do with a multitude of riches?

Before I start, let me say I was a server for a decade, and I have nothing but the utmost respect for all service employees. But this story has become legendary in my family, so: Mr. Tigger and I moved for his job from the East Bay Area in CA to Austin, Texas. On our first date night after moving, we went out to…

This is the only white noise anyone needs.

This is the only white noise anyone needs.

There are many good things about running your own shop. One of them is that there is no corporate who will send you an email about customer x who complained about the management not being responsive to their complaint.

From what I understand, (after asking myself the same question over and over through my serving years and finally asking a doctor - so anecdotal and take it that way) your taste buds tend to lose function over the years and as that happens you tend to replace it with sensations of hot and cold... but as you introduce…

A good server has other ways of getting revenge
