So I'm working on a list of all the things I'd want to do during my last shift as a waitress. For a while all I could come up with was "commit assault", but after some soul-searching, I've thought of a few more satisfying ways with which one could kiss goodbye to the hospitality industry.
- Turn up shitfaced.
- Wear a giant banana costume. With apron.
- Carry this hamster around while taking orders.
- Respond to all complaints with, "Shit happens, you boner."
- Before service begins, use all the empty boxes from food deliveries to turn the restaurant into a fort.
- Develop a rather sudden case of Tourette's.
- Release a swarm of bees into the dining room.
- Suddenly scream, "You're on your own!" and jump through a glass window.
- Give forks - and ONLY forks - to customers who order soup.
- Greet each customer with a loud, "Whoa..." and spray them with deodorant.
- Call last drinks via a nudie run.
- Bring in a megaphone and announce, "Attention cockshits: fuck you all."
- Serve meals by tipping the contents of the plate directly onto the table and walking off. Same goes for drinks.
- Play death metal throughout service.
- Write "I'm going to eat your flesh" on all the restroom walls.
- Glue barbed wire underneath the tables as a little surprise for every shit that sticks their gum there.
- Offer to take customers' coats, then drop them in the deep fryer.
- Instead of keying in food orders, carefully draw a picture of the meal your customer has ordered and serve the picture to them on a plate.
- Keep asking customers to hold on while you take a call; use your hand as a phone. Have plenty of imaginary arguments with the caller.
- Spend the entire shift screaming the lyrics to Summer of '69.
- Put creepy dolls of assorted shapes and sizes on every chair in the restaurant except for one table. Turn that table over as normal.
- Set off a flare.
- Ring up rival bikie gangs and announce a showdown at your workplace. Make sure to emphasise that they would be little bitches if they did not show.
- Enlist in the help of a punk rock marching band:
- Blast a vuvuzela at customers that complain about any of the above.
- ...and commit assault.
What are some things you would do before leaving your hospitality job?
"Not the bees!!!"
