Turns out, servers might be eating your food SOMETIMES THERE ARE SERVERS THAT QUESTIONABLY EAT FOOD LEFT AT THE TABLE. FRIES, BREAD, IF IT LOOKS LIKE IT HASN'T TOTALLY BEEN TOUCHED, IT'S ABOUT TO BE. I MEAN, IF YOU'RE A CUSTOMER SEND BACK YOUR STEAK AND IT'S UNTOUCHED, I'M LIKE, THANK YOU! BUT IF IT IS HALF-EATEN, NO, WE CANNOT BE THAT DESPERATE. IF SOMEBODY LEAVES FOOD ON THE TABLE AND I KNOW THAT THEY DID NOT TOUCH IT I'M EATING IT. 100%. A HALF-EATEN SALMON? THAT'S GOING STRAIGHT IT'S DISGUSTING. AND PEOPLE WHO DO THAT NEED TO SEEK HELP.

Transcript

Sometimes there are servers that questionably eat food left at the table. Fries, bread, if it looks like it hasn't totally been touched, it's about to be. I mean, if you're a customer and you send back your steak and it's untouched, I'm like, thank you! But if it is half-eaten, no, we cannot be that desperate. If somebody leaves food on the table and I know that they did not touch it, I'm eating it. 100%. A half-eaten salmon? That's going straight into the trash. It's disgusting. And people who do that need to seek help.
