Part of the success of other fast food joints (that are otherwise bad for you) is how you don't even have to leave your car to pick up some lunch. With this convenience, having to stop into Subway can be, and often is, too much of a hassle to want to deal with. The preperation of a sub sandwich doesn't seem any slower than a combo meal from Jack-in-the-Box. Why doesn't Subway start building restaurants with drive-thru windows? I have a feeling a LOT more people would be going there, given the added convenience, and it would create a few more jobs for young folks who are trying to save up for a car while they're still in high school.

I own a restaurant. Long story short, we need to close for a minimum of 2, probably 4 weeks to re-organize. (We had all of our kitchen staff and some of our servers walk out tonight--and NO, i promise I am not some horrible boss...they just listened to rumors that i wasn't given a chance to prove wrong.)

Anyway, I'm very concerned about what my customers will think/do if they come and read a sign on the door that we are temporarily closed.

I would love to tell the truth, but cannot without tarnishing a family members reputation, and I refuse to stoop to her level. Lets say I blame it on "emergency plumbing repairs which made us decide to revamp the kitchen meanwhile" or ??? would this, as a customer, either a regular or first time visitor, change your opinion and likelihood to return to the restaurant, or have any kind of negative impact?

Please help!

We go to a school where the entire sophomore class is 17 people. I asked her out and we went to the local burrito shop, where we got Grandes and Extra Large diet cokes.

Then we got in her car (she drove), which is an old jeep, and we started going down a very bumpy road. I kept farting at every bump like "Fip-Fip-BROMPH! Fip-put-SCHFLUMP!" like kind of a rhythym or beat. I was blaming it on the road, but we stopped for a sec, and all the noises stopped cold.

Then we started up again, and I started farting again! Stupid Cokes! Then she stopped short, and I went BUUURP! The only way I could think of getting out of it was to blame it on her.

What do I say at school, and do you think there will be a second date?

I've been on my regular job a few years, but I occasionally work summer jobs as a waiter or host for extra money when there are conventions or major engagements going on.

Some nights I make over $300 in tips alone, but rarely less than $150 and that's part-time.

Anyway, is it just me, or do many customers visit restaurants with attitudes? When you go out for the evening, or meet with others for lunch, isn't that supposed to be a time to relax? Why not stay home and order take out if you're that angry?

Another thing which bugs me, is that many customers assume all food service employees have no other ambitions in life, not that there is anything wrong with those who choose to be full-time waiters or waitresses.

Many of us make more money than the people we serve, or will soon make more as we are in college(such as myself), and others are working these jobs to finance their own businesses. So why do people come into restaurants with attitudes and pre-conceived stereotypes?

I used to like the restaurant when I lived in Ontario, but now that I moved I haven't seen one since? I know the closest one is like 2 hours away in Seattle, but why is there not one in BC? Just curious.

On a business trip to China awhile ago, the owner of the company that my husband was doing business with, took us out for dinner with other high authority people in the company. During dinner and conversations, I couldn't help but notice no one has touch the plates of shrimp, prepared in different ways. Everything else was half eaten so I decided to eat the shrimps, not because no one was eating them but, they look delicious. I started to think that maybe theres something in the shrimp why these people won't eat them. It was so obvious. I excused myself to go to the ladies room but really, I wanted to ask somebody about this. I asked one of the somebody that was dining at the restaurant about the shrimp and he said that, chinesse people consider shrimp as peasant food. I decided not to ask anymore questions to anyone but in my head. If thats so, why would they serve the shrimps anyway? does all chinesse people feel like this? I think that only the rich who don't eat shrimps.
