I don't think that would be an okay thing to do. Also it would make a scene, which is counterproductive. I want to be able to discreetly and privately tip the person who cooked my food, and give my server nothing.

Probably means it sat long enough it's not longer able to be run to guests. If you put up hot wings and the servers don't run them right away, they'll go soggy and not be at a quality you can send to a table. Fries will go soft, steaks and filets and chicken breasts will cool down to much, etc.

Servers are almost always without fail little bitches who's lives revolve around drama. You're going to count your tips in front of me after a busy Friday night and talk about now you're going out after work? Well guess what? I still have to close the kitchen and am already covered in sweat and exhausted, and just want to go home, take a shower, and get drunk in bed with some Taco Bell. I do get tipped out pretty well, but I also have seniority over most of the servers where I work despite being BoH, so I don't give a shit and talk down to them constantly while I take "their" money.

No it really wouldn't you just mention to the server you want to thank the chef or cook or whoever if it's behind doors and you can't see them they'll either go get them or let you meet them halfway or something. If they have a window just go up and say hello and tip em. Yeah it'll make the waiters pissy but the back of the house will all be happy. The whole point of tipping them is to show that waiters don't really do shit so do it obviously.

>> No.13643811

I feel bad for servers in theory.
The way pay for them is calculated means that places can legally pay them like $3 an hour, and that lots of people who are in desperate situations end up doing service work.
That being said, its no wonder they end up fighting for tips. For lots of people, that extra $5 is the difference between eating or starving.
