I've had two really nice nights at work. They haven't been overly profitable--only $40 each shift--but I can live with that on a slow night, in exchange for high percentage tips and nice customers on a first cut shift. Although my sales have been low, my tip percentage has been higher than 20% after cashing out my dinner ticket under my own name, and I have had zero complaints. Amazing!
Well, alright, there was the one woman who ordered a ribeye and then complained that it was too fatty. But she wasn't a bitch about it! The manager and I both talked to her, and suggested that next time she order the New York strip as it's a leaner cut of meat. She didn't demand a new meal, nor ask for it to be comped. And I got a 22% tip from that table. I had expected much, much less from them, considering the first thing they tried to do when I walked up was order a half-priced appetizer when that special wasn't available for another two hours, and the flyer they were reading said so. It was nice to be surprised.

Don't you love that with the Ribeye, or Prime Rib. Have people never eaten this before? Seriously, they are so fatty, I guess I just think everyone should know that.
