1) the awkward newbie
2) the by-the-book corporate standard
3) the suave salesman
4) the old friend and anti-salesperson

Whenever someone says something like "the chef got his hands on..." I imagine the chef in some dark alley striking a deal with a shady guy

Half expected Aaron to say "stone placenta"

[zoezzzarko]

When you order the special just because Aaron is so awkward

[bentice]

Drew you need to show Aaron's greatest ability as a server: the pity tip! You have no idea how many good tips I got as a new server because I sucked!

That damn Brad knows how to sell specials

[Bananamattcrunch]

Chef: “WE GOTTA MOVE SOME SHIT OLD STEAK TONIGHT PEOPLE”
Brad: “Just so you know…”

[JimboMarsh]

Aaron is struggling man. He needs a win for once D:

[mevans]

Nicole has no time to waste on details. hahahahahaahahaha

[joshr]

The red head girl is like the perfect server for me as a customer. She's quick, efficient and knows her shit

[SilverAnicore]

Management: "Nicole, did you push the specials?"
Nicole: "I'll push you down the stairs; you know damn well this place needs me more than you."

[xariacampbell]

i’m with nicole on this one. i’ll mention it but i’m not gonna pain myself trying to sell it if they’re obviously not interested.

Brad sells Specials like he’s doing an ASMR for thirsty ladies

[ThisIsKiki]

I think I'd like Nicole best, not having to nod politely through specials when I already know 🤣

[nasapayrollsystem]

Why does Brad make the steak sound illegal..
... the chef got his hands on a special delivery...across the border .. I'm cutting you in in this deal ... just so you know..
It's not every night, and it's exclusive
And that will reflect in my tip.

Brad makes me feel like I would be doing the walk of shame after dining with him (having him as a server) that I would need a long shower to feel clean again.

[ZeeNastee]

I once had a waitress kneel down and talk to us really sweetly and sign the check with a heart. I was so confused by this that I gave her a 50 dollar tip.

[louv]

Been doing this 16 years and I'm still the guy with the curly hair.

[ronaldamber]

Oh man, they found something that was near the use by date at the shops or in the freezer

[theprodigalson]

The “the chef got his hands” would’ve had me
