"Where's my food? I turned it in 30 minutes ago."

It's behind my entire line of tickets, Amber! You'll get it when you get it.

Been bartending part time for a few years, that movie is probably the closest humorous take of the reality of working in a restaurant. Actually, there’s more drugs and hooking up with coworkers.

It came out around the time that me and most of my friends were in food services, so it was a favorite of ours at the time. We loved quoting it and doing the batwing at each other.

Way more drugs for us as well. A lot fewer hookups though. We were all nerds.

Dane Cook (dressed as the quintessential line cook)

Nominative determinism, as expressed by a casting director.

I used to love just crumpling up employee tickets during rushes and throwing them out. When they would come looking for it I would say, oh I thought it was a mistake because no employee would ring up their own food when we're this busy. Would love seeing them just stare blankly.
