So while this clearly didn't happen, I stand by my opinion that everyone in America should have to work in a public-facing service industry for six months.

It'd be pretty eye-opening for a lot of you.

Everyone should know the joy of having 1 unhappy guest ruin your entire shift, making both you and your boss forget all about the other 499 guests that day.

Everyone should learn how a restaurant works, and why saying stuff like "why is there a wait, I see some open tables" makes the staff at the host desk want to roll their eyes.

But they can't, because then you'd get them fired.

Everyone should know what it feels like to have the Governor of your State tell everyone to go home and stay off the roads because of the blizzard, then have corporate in San Diego tell you to remain open because they think the plow drivers might want a burrito.

"I don't understand why this is so hard, a monkey could do this job"

First off sir, your lack of understanding is abundantly clear, and secondly the monkey would have torn part of your face off by now

Corporate, a thousand miles away: we understand the roads are unsafe, so if you don't get a customer for 90 minutes you can close

Customer, walking in 85 minutes later: wow, I can't believe they're making you stay open

Customer at the register with a copy of Twilight Imperium: can you teach me all about this game

It says there's 100 plastic pieces, can you open the box

This was great, thanks, it's $15 off today on Amazon *leaves*
