I’ve been working for this restaurant for almost 2 years, I’ve done a little bit of everything but mostly bussing. I’ve been holding on for as long as I have hoping that eventually they’d get enough bussers to replace me so I could become a full-time server and recently that opportunity arrived and I took it without a second thought. Disappointingly, I’m on day 6 of not getting my server schedule after asking about it since last Saturday. This morning, my gm who is fully aware of my struggle had the audacity to text me “hey I noticed your schedule hasn’t been changed yet, I can get you a pay raise if you go back to bussing”. Apparently the new guy that was going to replace me didn’t last long so I replied with “sorry, but I don’t want to go back to bussing.” What happens next I don’t know, I’m going to try picking up as many server shifts as I can and if things don’t change soon I might start looking for work elsewhere. The thing is I really enjoy working at this restaurant, my coworkers are amazing and the managers aren’t too bad themselves, sure I could’ve moved on like most others in my position and probably find better pay doing it, but the connections I’ve built to this place is not something I’m ready to cut ties with just yet, even though I’m starting to realize I might not have a choice.
