I started hiring for the season in March.
I hired a bunch of servers and a few hosts.
One of those hosts started last Wednesday.
She was fine. But then missed the rest of the week.
She returned today for orientation. Then a training shift.
I won’t go into details but by 5:01 I knew it wasn’t going to work.
Orientation is all about culture. And family.
And I learned a long time ago. If someone is rude to me. They will be rude to their coworkers. They’ll be rude to the guests.
By 6:30 several employees had approached me to say this won’t work.
So at the end of her shift I told her it wasn’t a good fit so she didn’t need to come back.
She laughed and thought I was kidding.
She still thought I was kidding when the conversation was over.
I wish her well. But don’t be rude to the boss.
