Things to do...

... when you have nothing to do. Introducing ...

Top 10 of Everything of 2008

Also..

Top 10 of Everything of 2009

And since it's only half way through 2010, i dont think there is one for this year. I'll update again once 2010 is over, but then again i might not coz i'll forget to do so. HAHAHHAHAHA!!

Enjoy folks!

Do you have what it takes to be...?

Interestingly on my off day, while i was plainly reading news feeds on Facebook (what's there to do besides this?), away from work, away from the service industry and all, i came across this article that's shared by a restaurant business (yes i "liked" their page).

It's quite amusing whereby the following 2 articles that i'm about to share has its own take from both sides. Be it you're a wait staff or a customer, read on to see if you have committed some of these do's and don'ts. I'd say i myself have made some mistakes here and there but hey, interacting with people is a way of growing up to become a better person (or a server), ain't it? :)

So here goes:

1) If you have been in the service industry for a couple of weeks or even years, some of the things that are listed on this article might reflect part of your doings. Hope it helps to sharpen your service skills.

2) If you claim you are a good customer, never make any fuss on petty things or whatsoever while dining in, read this and see if you really have what it takes to be a good patron.

However, i wont say that this is the standards for all service staff as you might have your own customs and do's and don'ts. This is a reference ONLY.

Happy reading!
