>>10737191I worked at Subway and ran it solo some days. I just worked at the bare minimum, and when a group of 20+ teenagers from some local sports event walked in, I just took my time and didn’t bother to stress. Every time I saw someone walk in the door and immediately leave when they saw the line, or see people wait in line for about 10 minutes before getting frustrated and leaving, I just internally shrugged and kept at my steady pace.
Why bust my ass to crank out those sandwiches as fast as possible? I’ll be paid the same if I didn’t, and it just wasn’t worth stressing over.
Maybe management shouldn’t be such cheapasses about trying to save on labor costs and schedule a second person. Then they wouldn’t be losing sales from people who get frustrated from waiting and just leave.
But hey, it was a problem, but it wasn’t my problem.
