...........it's not easy to go into work when....

 ...the wait staff is constantly being threatened with the phrase..."I'll write you up." A write up is when you have committed a sin so terrible.....it must be documented in writing, signed...dated...co-signed....and I think ass-igned......technically, when you hit 3, they can fire you.....(don't sneeze the wrong way)

Apparently grammer doesn't matter on these supposedly highly-important official communications that may or may not go to corporate....one of my last ones started out...(in the words of the manager du jour) "He say when I get to the table....."

OH! On one of my last write-ups....just in case you were wondering what it was for.....actually...so am I .....so I wrote down exactly what I was thinking....(in the small space provided for this on the official write up form......so I put "I have no idea what you are talking about."  (They presented me with this info about 3 weeks after the fact) This put a puzzled look on the face of the manager(s). I do not believe they are taught how to deal with a phrase that might indicate that they were not correct in their assessment of a particular situation, back in manager training school.

Okay...here's a write up I do know the reason for.......there is a mini white board in the kitchen....it lists who has what sidework for the shift.....saw my name by bar sidestand...cool......a couple of hours later...when there is a bread deficit....one of the managers goes ape shit (it's' not pretty...small children should be evauated from the area).....(she has to pull a case of (fresh) bread out of the freezer).....so she decides to write up everyone on the bread team....Somehow the chart had been changed, and unbeknownst to me, I was a part of the bread team. So....that's more clear than the last one....right?
