There used to be a Cici's Pizza near me (to those not familiar it's a pizza buffet), not only would they yell "WELCOME TO CICI'S!!" to every single person who walked in, but "CICI YOU LATER!!" to every single person who walked out. If it was busy this would become unbearably annoying.

I like Korean Catte Cafe. I guess this would be like all against FDA regulations in the USA, then what do you do if someone gets scratched, bitten, allergic, or gets sick or something and tries to say it's the cats' fault.  (My cat loved his butt scratched and liked playing with straws WTF)

I just tell them "you don't have to sing" when I put a tip in the jar, and they don't sing. Or you could just not tip them, I guess. Coldstone's expensive enough as it is, I wouldn't blame you Maldoror posted:I want one of those to open near me Cat cafes in the West tend to get shut down for health code violations.

I also remembered another annoying common restaurant thing - when you forget to ring the "I enjoyed my meal" bell on the way out at Long John Silvers the employees get kind of pissy about it. I've heard a sarcastic "you're welcome", an offended "hey, you didn't ring the bell!", and occasionally someone will follow us out and ask if something was wrong with the meal. It's both awful and decent customer service at the same time depending on the person running the counter.

 requirement of cat e: Cat cafes are huge all over Asia and are starting to become more of A Thing in the States too. They're a little different in the US since they have to comply with federal health department and food service regulations, so the cats have to be in a different room from the food and snacks. And a lot of them focus on adoption, rather than having the cats just live there forever.

There used to be an awesome Greek place in my town where every couple of hours they would play loud music, then the staff would interlock arms and start dancing in a circle around the building. They also had fire breathing.

Its the only time I tip but I don't really consider it a tip, I'm purchasing teenage merriment.

There's a McDonalds near me where all the employees communicate using scat singing and rhythmic finger snapping. It's a little confusing sometimes but they are so enthusiastic that it's worth it and they're quite good at dancing too. It's just a nice touch when they give you your food and then finish off with a flourish of jazz hands while they wait for you to pick it up and go eat.

Staff at trader joes always seem pretty happy and egar to help. They also know exactly where everything is and will personally escort you there without prompting. Seems like they have a good hiring policy. That's also why they get paid more and have benefits far exceeding the industry average.

I worked at a dinner theatre once as an actor/server and we did that during the serving portion and I would get off of work and take the tips and buy dope then shoot up like a half a gram of dope and wish I were dead. Look, man, nobody wants to loving sing for people they're serving food too. It's demeaning like I'm a goddamn court jester.

Here's an idea, hire friendly people and let them be friendly in their own individual way. Don't hire people to be friendly, and don't hire them to be dancing monkey-servents to please the likes of horrible customers like TheLIghtPurges.

I never said I did a bad job. I think I did a pretty good job, as a matter of fact. You think anyone else ever did as good a job as me playing Colonel Mustard in the musical adaptation of Clue! written by the owner, a failed screenwriter? No, no sir! No one ever did a better job or in fact ever played that role besides me.

I walked out of there with a free dinner every night that I don't think I was really supposed to have but the cook and I would do coke together sometimes so he always took care of me. Not sure if that qualifies as stealing, I don't think so, I'd like to see you find a server that doesn't talk themselves into free meals from the cook at least sometimes.
