Sorry you had to do your job, Batman. I'm also sorry you had to stay a little later than you were supposed to, it sure sucks having a job, I'll bet. I'm most sorry that you stewed about this the entire time you were there, just thinking of what you were going to say on 4chan, thinking of the perfect image to go along with a perfectly perfect insult to help you start getting over this tragedy.

[Anonymous No.5716664]

>>5716639

they start prepping for closing before the store actually closes so that they don't have to be there for an excessive amount of time after closing, since people typically do not come in RIGHT before closing.

I understand the whole hurr durr do your job mentality, but I still can't imagine that anyone who has actually worked in the industry would say anything like that. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a dick and I'll always still serve people food if they come in right before closing, but if you work somewhere that closes late you end up staying really fucking late.

indeed

what REALLY sucks is when you've got a family of four come in 5 minutes before close, and then they take their sweet ass time figuring out what they want, and then they SIT DOWN because they know we can't technically kick them out, even though we're officially closed and can't let anyone else in.

yea exactly

I go to school full time and I have to commute an hour or more (horrible highway, notorious for CONSTANT wrecks) and work at a restaurant that closes late. I'm not going to be a dick to people but it's a real bummer. I look like a fucking heroin addict at this point due to how little sleep I get.

>>5716764

They just have never worked in the service industry, some of them are dicks but some of them are just stupid or ignorant. Often times they seem to be very polite so I guess they're just retards.

I always go out of my way to be as nice as possible to anyone at any sort of customer service place after working at coffee shops, as a waitress, and as a line chef (granted less customer oriented but I still see some of the interactions with our waitstaff). I'm so miserable, and I know how miserable working customer service is, so I don't want to make their day any worse. Unless they're a dick that is, then you can fuck right off.

[Anonymous No.5716785]

So what's the cutoff?

I generally don't go in any later than a half-hour before closing. Not only because I know they're trying to go home but also because I know they're going to make my order shitty and rushed.

ive worked in retail/customer service for like 8 years and thats why i AM a dick to people. Used to work for Verizon... and customers would come in and we would lie and cheat them. Everyone did. Its the company mantra.

Then they would complain and the phone customer service ladies would give them everything and then they would come back to the store... and then CS would call our manager and bitch that were lying, but our manager encouraged it so he just told them to fuc koff.

KNOWING WHAT goes on in the sales and service industry most of the time - how you talk shit after every call
> man this bitch stroked me for 30 minutes after i took care of everything... its not like i can hang up...
how you guys are paid to lie and addd-on stuff and how 95% of you are just stupid.

So, im that asshole customer. If my phone dont work, im not gonna let you finish your little LIE to get me out of the store... im gonna escalate the situation immediately, get what i want, and if you dont stfu get you in trouble too.

Wait a sec, no trolling for a moment.
Here, there is a time when clients can't come in, and another later time when clients are kicked out.
And sometimes a time where you can come in but only to order something quick (like a pizza but not a full home made menu, because "this part of the kitchen is closed".)
Nothing really official in most restaurants. Depends on the mood of the staff. I've had been offered drinks by friendly staff after legal closing time, and been kicked out because fuck you.

[Anonymous No.5716873]

>>5716646
no you didn't.
>>5716672

[Anonymous No.5716878]

>>5716863

it doesnt depend on the mood man, it depends on very specific things.

that period of time where people are not allowed in but not kicked out is because crew starts shutting down for the night. they power down all the "pizza oven" type shit taht wont be used anymore, and start cleaning. they leave some basic sinks and grills open so people can still order, but theyre not letting people in because theyre in the process of shutting down.

They start kicking people out when they're basically DONE with cleaning... and all the grills are off, the only thing still on are the lights. So... why would you let people in? You can't even serve them coffee because you've already washed the machine for the night?

get it? A restaraunt kitchen is a giant conveyor belt of shit and takes hours to power down. (its kinda same reason for mcdonalds stupid breakfast rule)

[Anonymous No.5716895]

>>5716863
Reading more of the thread : here legal closing time (mainly for bars, less used by restaurants) is 2am (unless they have a night authorization, and unless they have a licence for earlier). It means before 2am, they can kick the shit out of any customer, because it's illegal for them to still have any customer after 2am.
After 2am, if it's a private party and if staff can name people here, then cops can close their eyes. (And while it's forbidden to smoke in public places, private parties can be smoking. Some bars use this trick on occasion.)

[Anonymous No.5716910]

>>5716878
Yeah, depends on the restaurant. Some places have a 4 guys staff and less kitchen places to shut down at night.
Ordering a prepared salad may be more OK than a pizza if they shut down the pizza oven first, but in more "family owned" places, adding a log in the oven and airing it turns the oven back on more easily than the grill.
For the mood thing, sometimes the staff can invite you for the drinks they have after work. If they're not in a hurry to catch the last bus.

[Anonymous No.5716911]

>>5716902
Then maybe they should close earlier instead of saying they're open.

I promise you we did. Kitchens are not always a very civilized place. We did it regularly to the owner of the restaurant. He always ordered a steak and it was the kind of thing no one would notice on their food.

We also peed in the 5 gallon bucket of pickles on rare occasions.

That would be fine. I'd have no problems at all with a restaurant that said "last seating at 8 PM, restaurant closes at 9 PM and you will be expected to leave at that time".

If they don't say that though, it means they're accepting customers until closing time. And if you work there, don't bitch about it, you knew that was the case when you took the job.

It sounds cold, but that's just not my fucking problem. If the restaurant is open to 11, and accepts new customers until 11, you're going to have to stay later than 11 sometimes. You knew that going in (or you should have). There are parts of every job that are shitty. If you can't deal with the shitty parts of your job, find a different job with shitty parts you can deal with. Bitching about it on the internet just makes you sound like a whiny, spoiled child.

they do. they typically close the kitchen and refuse customers after a certain point, or close the kitchen but serve at the bar until lock up. depends on the place, staff on that shift, how well they're doing... some places might take a $15 take-out order at 60 seconds to close out of desperation.

Guess the job market is different where you live then, I have friends who have 5+ years managerial experience who can't find anything other than entry level jobs, and I don't just mean dipshit fuckups who are completely inept and never should have been a manager to begin with.

I have a legitimate job now but I worked in restaurants full time while I attended college and while I hate people bitching unnecessarily I can empathize to some degree. It does feel really crappy to work your ass off and still only barely be able to live in the cheapest POS apartment in the sketchy part of town.

[Anonymous No.5717508]

not all places do this, it varies greatly

I've only worked in one place that did this and the manager was a raging alcoholic and would drunkingly yell at people, so I'm not even sure if that was supposed to be the protocol.

Not complaining although yeah it sucks to get home really late, but I knew it came with the territory. Just saying.

because some managers suck ass and will let a 20 top in at 5 minutes to close, and then those people decide they want 3 courses

I used to work at Chipotle (inb4 shill), and we closed and locked the doors promptly at 10. Of course, we'd occasionally get people coming in at 9:55 and ordering a burrito. Was it annoying? Sure it was. Did it make me freak out and hate the customer? Of course not, because the restaurant was still open. We'd serve them their burrito full of old food that was cooked an hour ago with a smile, and when 10:00 rolled around we'd lock the go about our closing tasks. If you're on a closing shift you never know what time you're going to get out. This is just a basic reality of working food service (and for that matter, healthcare, my current field).

there are plenty of ways to make things work and have a profitable perfectly functional establishment without requiring your staff, which has typically already been working 11 hours to stay another 3 hours because you can't be bothered to manage instead of slave drive
if you could pay attention for the time it takes to read a post, you would realize it's not people complaining about not leaving early

If your parents pay your rent, you never really moved out.

If you don't want to go to school, drop out and pick up more hours at work. Then you can start paying your own rent and use whatever you have left over to put towards your hobbies. You're 23 years old, a legal adult. Your parents can't force you to do anything.

If you work the closing shift in food service, and expect to leave at the same time every night, you need a serious reality check. Besides, every additional hour you stay is just one more hour's worth on your paycheck. Get over yourself, keep your mind on your work, and you'll be out of there before you know it.

They are EXPECTED to start closing before they actually lock the doors. Most service industry jobs, especially any business owned by McDonalds, have a very specific time in which they are expected to accomplish tasks. If those tasks are not performed in that time consistently it usually means the loss of a job.

Not just food staff, and not just American. Go to any board and ask about retail experiences. Minimum wage jobs are staffed by people of minimal patience.

Myself included. Clothing retail, but I had it easy because even though we weren't allowed to kick customers out, managers didn't care. I would always tell people to get out once gates were shut.

I worked at a pizzaria for years, one particular manager was a real stickler jew and would take orders after we were technically closed and trying to clean up the place, just to fuck us over and make closing shop more difficult. The place was filled with cameras, for the most part no fuckery happened but in a couple of these occasions when he took orders when all the toppings and sauce containers had already been put away in the walk in freezer, and so we'd have to make pizzas IN the cold ass freezer where there was no cameras, i would pluck a single pube off my crotch and push it deep into the dough of the pizza i was making.

Becuase of my job I tend to occasionally visit restaurants close to their closing times, though I do try to avoid doing so the best I can. I always ask them to suggest whatever is easiest for them to make at that time so I dont cause too much trouble and they're always really cool about it. I dont think I have ever been declined or been treated badly just because I came in near closing time.
Then again maybe they're spitting in my food in secret, who knows? Does it help to ask them what would be easiest for them to make? Or is it that if you order anything near closing times it's going to be a problem? I always take the food with me, I would never eat at a restaurant near closing time because I'll just assume they'll kick me out at closing time.

>I can't think of a single job in the world that doesn't on occasion need employees to stay after official hours.

Which already happens though. People showing up right before closing just means you're staying after even longer.

At which point management can hold it against you for taking too long to clean up and clock out. At the same time though it's also illegal for you to clock out and keep working so there's another thing that can be held against you. Or you can just leave at the allotted time and get into shit for not having something done. Basically you're fucked regardless of what you do.

I mean they can even ban whoever they like at their whim, it's their private business and they're not obligated to have anyone. People eating there are just guests, after all.

We turn off the open sign, darken all the lights in the front of the restaurant. While we were cleaning we still had people coming in and asking if we were open.
Te same goes for menu items when people come up to order they always ask what certain things are. It's like we have signs all around the store that describe the menu and there are signs when you order.
