...uniforms.....

No one wants to spend money on their uniforms.....especially when you have a slow



night...and you don't even make enough to buy a shirt....it's especially maddening when


you have to wear white shirts....do you know how hard it is to keep white shirts clean


when you handle food, bread trays, wine, and dipping oil, among other things? Of course


you do! Someone needs to tell corporate that white shirts are, well, stupid. And then


they want to inspect your shirt, make sure the cuffs are clean, it is pressed with creases


down the arms...and let's not forget those dark marks on your shoulder from carrying heavy


trays....



Okay, we'll get to the Grease Release.....there was a quarterly employee meeting...there


was some stupid contest.....I don't remember what it was ...because all the contest were


stupid....anyway.....there were bags with prizes in them.....many bags contained a bottle


of Grease Release, because they had heard that it gets the grease stains out of white


shirts....you may think that's kind of a cheesy prize....and you would be


right....however I still have not figured out the prize I received.....socks. No shit...


I'm at a restaurant meeting and I get socks....



One guy didn't want to buy new shoes...so he painted his tennis shoes black...(he's still


wearing them)...others, myself included, have used Gorilla Glue to hold shoes


together....oh, and a stapler can serve as sewing machine for a hem.....



P.S. ....if you want to get out those grease stains.....use any dish detergent that cuts


grease....Like Dawn....(done the research, it works)
