Do you have a work bestie? One of my servers and hosts are work besties and I think it’s really nice to see them so happy when they work together. I feel like it’s weird if I had a work bestie as a manager, but when I was younger I had a work bestie and it definitely made work more fun!

Are you the only manager? If so, then yeah it's a little hard to have a bestie that is also your employee. But I still think you should feel free to be friends with them. Having friends at work has always made work so much more enjoyable for me.

There are several managers but we don’t always overlap. Still feels weird to be besties though as a manager. I totally think it’s great when staff enjoy working together!

My work bestie varies day to day. I can tell you my work enemy is the server who puts in the food order that's like "Chicken parm, no breading, no salt, slightly grilled chicken, light sauce, cheese on the side, sub alfredo." What in the world. They literally must hate me, so I just (jokingly) make them my mortal enemy for the day.

Hahaha that’s a good one!

I do! One of our other servers is like a sister to me. We vibe so well and hang out all the time outside of work. I love it when we're on the floor together, it makes my shift seem to go by so much faster.
