  • Before I even read your post I am inspired to inform you that managers only notice what they see. They won’t notice you quietly taking care of things, they WILL notice if other employees complain to them about you, regardless of the real issue. There’s a saying “make your work visible”, meaning that you should try to take credit for as much as you can. Even if you have to exaggerate a bit, aka “lie”. Once you understand that concept, the behavior of other workers can be better understood.

    (Will now read the post and respond if I see need to) Edit: I think the response is already appropriate to the text of the post. You are dealing with exactly the problem I predicted from the title.

    You have to work extra hard to overcome documented complaints. Make your work visible. Brag. Be a complete egomaniac. From their perspective that’s normal.








  • I avoid restaurants that require tipping. When I do have to tip, I give way too much if the service was good. IMO, good service is to not try to talk to me too much, and to be responsive to what I need done (refilling drinks, taking additional requests). Bonus tip if I know they’re overworked and handling it well.

    15% floor. Throw an additional $10 sometimes. Always direct to the worker because these places steal tips. Also I tip cooks sometimes.

    But I avoid going to these restaurants.
