To those who've worked in the "biz" (lol), how often do waiters/waitresses hook up with one another?


Regularly.

Funniest example was this nympho waitress that once nailed 2 latino bus boys together. One of them had a broken wrist w/ a cast. The ride 'em cowboy image of him tapping her from behind waving that cast over his head has stayed with me. She had other escapades.

That girl was crazy. We used to see her BF pick her up at night and felt really sorry for him.

I was the only Chinese person working during my second restaurant gig, the rest were white or Vietnamese. I hooked up with every Viet girl there. I didn't care too much for the white girls though.

Yeah, server to server it happens all the time. You get off work at 2 AM, there is nothing to do but drink, and once drunk, you have three options:
1) go back to someone else's place for more drinking (or most likely more serious drugs like weed or coke)
2) go home alone
3) **** the waitress that is next to you

Well, I guess there is a fourth option, which combines options 1 and 3.

And IME, the manager/server hookup is very very rare.

this makes me wonder how many times my friend who works in the biz gets banged. :( makes me sad cause we could have had something together. meh what's there to do about it.

is there any shame in taking option 2? lol

agreed, i see a large number of servers intermingling. it makes sense, they share similar experiences and have mutual familiarity. if the servers at the same restaurant aren't hooking up, they are frequently dating someone else from another restaurant. this is because turnover is frequently high at restaurants, and it's not uncommon for servers to bounce around through different local eateries within a year or so of employment. all in all, same job description, same family.

two of my longer term girlfriends, including the one i'd dating now, i met at the restaurant where i was working.



i have long wondered this prior to starting serving, as i've noticed a large proportion of waitresses being hot. questions were:

1) who is dating these girls?
2) do i have a chance picking one up?


so the answer is, likely the male servers are dating the female servers. and no, customers who leave their name/phone number/business card to try to pick up a date will never get called back.


the waitresses at my previous restaurant had a very love/hate relationship with particular gentlemen. they'd have guys who came in and tipped well and made lots of small talk (in hopes of impressing the waitress). and while the waitresses on some level, liked the attention and certainly the money, they were tired of being ogled and avoided those guys as much as reasonably possible (while still providing food service).

Hate these kind of stuck-up bitches.

FWIW, cook to server hookups are just as random, and even happen on premises. Usually the walk-in cooler or dry storage. Not that I'd know from experience..... :slayer:

Definitely not. Cooks are generally assholes to the wait staff.

Cooks are assholes to everyone. Our jobs are harder than yours and pay much less. But I've seen cook-server hookups at every restaurant I've worked at since I was 16.
