I like for my customers to be well informed and ask all the questions they need without being rushed. I personally prefer slower days than the high volume days.
Are you the type that like slower days or the high volume days?

I’m with you—slower days feel better. You can actually help people instead of just surviving the rush.

Exactly.

I definitely prefer a slow day, but they are becoming increasingly rare. I would love for all my customers to have all the time they need, but I have a queue of dozens of people who just get angrier and angrier as they wait. It's such a balance between being patient and efficient.

I use to take calls so I completely understand. I wish for slower days in your near future lol

I like slower days as well. I tend to get a little flustered when it is super busy and chaotic. I feel like I perform better on slower days actually.

Rights slow days makes the day seem longer but very productive

I absolutely prefer the slower days. I would far rather be bored than be stressed out. Plus, the customers are my favorite part about the job, and I love being able to spend more time just making conversation with them.

I'm in the minority here. I think busy, fast, and chaotic days go quickly and keep me busy, where I find slow days to just drag.

My girlfriend and I have been in a long distance relationship for 8 months now. We talk every single day online and recently I went to visit her for around a month. It was great and it seemed like the relationship was stronger than ever. But one week back after visiting her, I felt a strange detachment from her and our conversation topic got repetitive and stale quick. Any advice?

Once when I was waiting tables, I had a guy pay me cash. The change was 45 cents, which I didn't give back to him because like who wants that. He then asked where the change was, and when I explained that I didn't give back the loose change, he made a big stink about how dollars and cents matter and didn't leave me a tip. He was a republican staffer on capitol hill.

Back when I was getting started in the food world, I worked flipping burgers at In-n-Out. A man came in and said the burgers he had gotten weren’t right. He dumped the food on the counter and then he started throwing them back behind the counter. We gave him a refund and then his demeanor completely changed. He was calmer and he told us to have a great day as he left us to clean up the mess he made.
