some people in the catering industry are so STUPID okay so where i work usually has two or three KPs on at a time bc it's quite big and the job of the waiting staff when clearing tables is literally just to bring it to the kitchen and leave it on the counter for the KPs to wash up. now you're supposed to put the cutlery in a bucket and scrape all the food off the plates bc that's just the decent thing to do but a lot of the staff literally just DUMP it bc there's a real snobbery thing about KPs and how waiting staff generally think they're better. now there's one woman who does the potwash a lot and ive been friendly to her since the beginning - no ulterior motive it's just the decent thing to do???? i dont understand some people - AND THE THING ABOUT MY JOB IS THAT THE KPS ARE USUALLY TRAINED ON DESSERTS TOO SO THEY MAKE THE DESSERTS anyway found out this woman my bsf had fucked up one of her desserts and she HID IT and waited for ME SPECIFICALLY and i got a free brownie
#like there are so many benefits to being nice and treating human beings like human beings#one is that it is a nice thing to do and being a jerk will make you feel all gross inside#and another is that THEY WILL BE NICE TO YOU IN RETURN#primary school level social skills and yet so many of the staff who are OLDER THAN me#treat this poor woman like dirt#i love her she's so chatty and she really likes me now which is kind of sad bc literally all i did was talk normally to her#like i say hi to her and ask her how her day is and i asked her name when i first started#and i thank her when she takes the plates#it's basic shit it's nothing i need a fucking medal for#BUT she's kinda petty in a really funny way (like not letting any of the other waitresses have the brownie then giving it me IN FRONT OF#THE OTHERS SKDGHKSHD)#like one time there was a queue in the kitchen bc a load of tables left at the same time so we all had plates that needing washin#*washing#and this woman IGNORED the other three girls in front of me and started a convo with me over their heads LMAO#i was like bestie you CANT DO THAT KSHGDKJHG#i love her and the brownie was fucking stunning#also the same way the waiting/bar staff have a real comradery against the kitchen staff when they're being dicks#the KITCHEN staff are renowned everywhere you go for being very cliquey#like you know how everyone always slates chefs? yeah now imagine a group of them who think it's a ride or die environment#and ive been pretty intimidated by the chefs here just bc they're so cliquey and they're not really interested in being friends with#the waitresses like they're there for their own people and nothing else#BUT bc im chummy with this one KP now SHE is one of the kitchen staff and like i said they're very protective of their own#SO NOW THEY ALL LIKE ME LMAO#finessed the system on accident purely by being a nice person#shocking truly! how has no one realised this! when you are nice your life is easier and better! wow!#hella slaves to capitalism
