Kellie told her that the guests needed to be seated so the servers could start taking their orders. The lady insisted that everyone was already present, but Kellie stated that the service would run more smoothly if they were all seated.
Kellie was feeling agitated because, with each interaction, the lady kept getting a little meaner. The servers began to bring out the salad, bread, and appetizers. However, people started switching seats, so the servers ended up giving food to the wrong people.
When it was time for the second course, the table was still in chaos. The servers had to shout out orders and wait for people to claim their dishes.
The lady was complaining at full volume the whole time. Babies were crying, and many of the guests sent their food back to the kitchen. After everyone finally got their food the way they wanted it, Kellie left them alone for a little while.
But then, she suddenly heard some noise coming from the back area. The party of 25 was singing and dancing, and someone was even playing the tambourine. The other table across from them was laughing loudly and having their own conversation.
The lady asked Kellie if she could move the other table or at least tell them to quiet down so they wouldn’t interrupt their worship session.
Kellie told her that she couldn’t do that and that her group also needed to lower their volume so everyone else could enjoy their food as well. The lady went back to the group and announced that they were getting kicked out of the restaurant.
It took a while for the entire party to make their payments, especially since they all wanted separate checks. One of the bills was left unpaid, and the lady asked Kellie to “be somebody’s blessing” and take care of the bill for them.
Of course, Kellie refused. In the end, the lady left a $50 tip on a $350 bill.
@ambryrae I really wished they woulda gathered in the name of the Lord somewhere else that day…. #restaurant #manager #serverlife #serverproblems #servertiktok
