Waffle House – I tell people that I have a job at Awful House. It's that bad. Not only are you expected to practice their "ten steps of service" [read: 10 trips to every table], but servers must also wash their customers and the cooks' used dishes, mop the floors, clean the restrooms, etc, working for just tips. | Comparably

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

waitresses don't work together as a team. This is true throughout he restaurant industry as a whole.

What do you like best about the leadership team?

There was only two managers, one day shift and one night shift, and often they doubled as line cooks themselves. That made for slim odds of being micromanaged.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Tips are low because it's rare to have a guest check exceed $30 for two people, and given that the amount of side work required is ridiculous, I feel that wait staff should be paid minimum wage plus tips for every hour they work in excess of 40. Many weeks we are coerced into overtime up to 60 hrs
