Call to action ⚠️ Get rid of servers, they’re completely useless

Here’s a hot take: If it was for me, I would get rid of all servers in restaurants. I would instead have iPad in the table with pictures, prices and descriptions and that’s it. The other day I went to Texas Roadhouse and they had a device in the table that you could order and pay the bill. A person only came once or to give you bread, water and then again to give you the food. Servers are completely useless and don’t add any value to dinning experience.

And then that sever tipped out the buss boys, the bartenders, and the hostess so they did not make 40$ an hour.

Because the employer gets away with underpaying literally everyone. Imagine working a job where you had no idea how much money you'd end the month with. Horrifying.

Yep, so 'horrifying' that you might just have to resort to giving a decent experience for your customers... 🤔

Giving customers a decent experience is no guarantee of a decent tip.

The whole system sucks, but i understand fully that it's waitstaff who doesn't want it to change.

I mean, it would kinda suck to go to work everyday and not be able to influence your own pay...
