New Environment, New Morons

[customersruinmylife]

OK, so I mentioned yesterday that I had transfered to another bar to be closer to family and to sort myself out (people who have read my posts will know what has happened to my best friend). So, last night was my first shift.

Mild Curry

I go to collect some empty plates.

SC: That chicken korma was garbage!
SC's Wife: *slaps him* Don't say that!
SC: I'll say what I want! It was garbage! It wasn't even spicy!
Me: You are aware sir that a chicken korma is a mild and creamy curry?
SC: It..well..
SC's Wife: Told you!
SC: It was still garbage!

Rock the Gravy Boat

SC: Make me some fresh gravy!
Me: OK sir, but what you recieved was the standard portion, if you want more you will have to pay more.
SC: Fine! But make it thicker! And put some onion in it!
Me: That would be difficult sir, it is all pre-packaged and portioned, we don't actually make...
SC: Don't give me that! Make me gravy!

I stormed back to the kitchen, got him a portion of gravy and put a huge slice of red onion at the bottom of it. Nothing more was said.

This curry is not bread!

A guy came up to me with a curry.

SC: I didn't order this! I ordered a tikka masala!
Me: That is a tikka masala sir.
SC: No! Tikka masala is a type of naan bread!
Me: I'm afraid you are VERY much mistaken sir.
SC: I asked for a masala and I got a curry! Where is my naan bread?

I was unbelieveably confused.

That is NOT my name!

The manager didnt have a time to log me onto the system, so I was going around using someone elses key, so whenever I used it, my named came up as Stu.

SC: Hi Stu! Are you new here!
Me: Yes I am, but my name isn't Stu, its customersruinmylife.
SC: No, your name is Stu!
Me: No, this is someone else's key, I don't have my own yet.
SC: Don't be cheeky towards me Stu!

A manager had to convince him my name wasn't Stu.

Yes I am a supervisor

So yeah, I kept my rank when I transfered, but I basically stepped back a bit, I didn't want to boss people around I barely knew when I didn't really know what I was doing.

SC: You're not a supervisor!
Me: Yes I am, I just transfered.
SC: You're not a supervisor! There are people who have worked here A LOT longer than you, why are you a supervisor?
Me: I'm a transfer from another bar, I kept my rank.
SC: You shouldn't be a supervisor. It isn't fair.

I want to go back to my old bar.

You can pull through this. We're here for you!

If someone tells you their name isn't Stu, it's obviously because either their name ISN'T Stu or because, for some reason, they just don't want to be called Stu. So get over it and stop calling them, Stu.

So how was your day Stu?

WTF? Why the hell did it matter?

I've lost count of how many bosses I've had that had less time in than me. Happens all the time. WTF, people?

You have my sympathy. Hope things smooth out a bit soon.
