Hi, I'm extremely high right now. I've just watched this webm about thirty times, and I think the cause of her falling is the chair being pushed out by someone at the table on the right. He seems to stay there after scooting out to demonstrate not his accountability but rather his absolute innocence, as if the waitress should have known exactly which way to walk to avoid sliding-out chairs of people who want to get up politely at a meal like this restaurant would have nice meals. And the waitress is completely confounded, because she doesn't immediately start apologizing, she's thinking, jesus, it's not my fault, it was the fucking guy who slid his chair out, but she knows she has to apologize and she can't just point her finger at the guy. And the other table, the one who got hit with the tray, they're all just stupefied, because what do you do in that situation? You wait, like people wait, they wait for someone to do something, the protagonist, because that's all we do: we are viewers of protagonists, often we like to identify with them and pretend to be them, but deep inside we know there is that separation between us and the person we are pretending to be, and so you wait, you wait for someone to take the lead in a situation, but you don't know that absolutely anyone has the capacity to be that Protagonist, it could be you, and you could get up and do something and be the focus of attention that everyone including yourself so craves,

Have you worked in food? This sounds like someone who has worked in food and knows what they're talking about. Servers genuinely feel bad, especially if it's something like this that could've caused harm.

Hell, my mom wanted Cheddar's one year for her bday and I kinda hate Cheddar's. Didn't say anything cause it's my mom, ordered myself a steak and it came out well done as fuck. Server was mortified, manager came out and apologized and the cook personally brought me another steak. They even comped my meal and everyone's drinks (was not sodas).

I made sure to tip good and when my mom goes there now they always treat her real good.

>> No.9029650

Nah, do a lot of traveling for my job, and have a lot of friends who work in the industry of serving to the point I realize people are also human like myself. Mistakes are going to happen anywhere, you just got it this day. If you just out right state the wrong doing calmly generally you'll get treated better, I mean it isn't like they will just say "lol fuck you no take backs!".

I traveled for a while who was a complete asshole even at fast food places about the simplest shit and it annoyed the ever loving fuck out of me.

tl;dr wait staff/cooks are people too, they make mistakes just like you.

This is the only true answer. As long as you aren't scalded by something and you just got something dumped on you, just laugh it off. Freaking out for something as innocuous as a waiter making an honest mistake is juvenile and completely unwarranted. Shit happens. Laugh it off and don't be a prick.

Storytime:
>dad, uncles, a few cousins, my grandma (92), and myself go out to an italian restaurant in rural virginia for dinner since we all visited her
>waitress has a tray full of all of our drinks and as she tries to serve us our first drink, BOOM
>tray slips out of her hand and absolutely drenches my grandma in literally a gallon or 2 of beer and soda
>uncles are huge dudes and there is this deafening silence in the restaurant expecting an outburst
>grandma starts laughing, stands up, takes off her shoes, and pours all the liquid out of them on the floor
>simply says "it was probably time for a new pair of shoes anyways"
>all is well in the world
>we all laugh it off and have an awesome dinner together

Yeah, your grandma was a decent human being. But the fact is she didn't come of maturity in a culture that sues at the drop of a hat.

I think they might have given us a few free desserts and coffee after dinner. We didn't ask for anything. They apologized profusely and the server was super embarrassed. We didn't really expect anything either way. Shit happens, everyone lived and somehow made it through that traumatic experience. It's a story we talk about and laugh about all the time.

one time a waitress forgot to put my order in (but not for rest of table). she apologized. she was very sincier, owned up to mistake, and such . the rest. was very busy that night and she had a ton of tables. my father got pissed but honestly i didn't mind. i told her just put my order in now and give me some more bread. so i had to wait 12 min more fo rmy food. not ideal, but wasn't end of world.

Poor management/owners who think packing customers in like sardines in a can will maximize that bottom line.

Waited for an apology and said it's fine. Obviously no tip.

Probably wouldn't come back unless the manager spoke to me and offered the meal for free or at least half price. I wouldn't get mad about it though.

I'd probably get a bit angry but it was obviously an accident so no reason to chimp out.

At the restaurant or wait until you get home?

I'd immediately find the manager and start right to cucking that youngboy.

This happened to me at cracker barrel when I was 6. I got a tray of iced tea spilled on me twice by the same black waitress. I cried the whole time I was there.

As punishment to the restaurant I'd make them give the waitress a raise and a management position.

Seeing this shit triggers me so hard. I work as a server at a wedding venues. We have to carry out 6 lobsters at a time using racks and one time I tripped because a guest pulled his chair out me.

Dropped everything and sprawled all the lobsters across the dance floor and had to clean it up myself in front of 400+ guests and my boss. One guy gut lobster on his expensive pants. For like half a year I had anxiety and went to the bathroom to avoid serving the main course.
