Signing someone's name without permission on a document isn't legal as far as I know. Forgery and fraud under the law it is not, however. If the person who's CC slip you signed says no problem, then you are in the clear no matter what. Withholding tips and losing shifts because of missing CC slips is BS and illegal. Too often restaurants get away with illegal practices. I was a victim of tip theft by my managers once. Also of being denied breaks.
@kally546 I would think the waiter would prefer this. The order was for a normal dish, they didn't have to make any special notes, they didn't have to get the chef to change anything, seems like it would be the best way to do it.
Oy, allergies are the worst. Luckily, my restaurant can print out special menus for people will all different types of allergies... but I always get this one lady who comes in with her sun who I'm surprised he's still alive because he's allergic to EVERYTHING UNDER THE FUCKING SUN.
I am allergic to seafood but I don't make a huge deal about it I just don't eat it and always carry an epipen. I get so pissed when my friends or coworkers make a huge production at resturaunts about things they can't eat, even lying that the're allergic. If I call them on it they just giggle and say " I know but I really don't want ( insert food) on my plate. " Grrrrr......
I work in a GREEK restaurant. This group comes in, and one lady (I guess their leader, there is one in every group) just starts pointing at people and telling me their allergies "Gluten, gluten, garlic, dairy." It was a fucking allergy convention. It's like they all hang out together because they are all allergic to inconvenient things. THESE people should have called ahead, as ALL of them had allergies.
Do you have any cases where people don't ask to have things removed but pick out the things they don't like and leave them on the dishes? If so, what do you think about that?
Picky people should just cook at home. I don't really care for mayo, but I won't go nuts if I order something with mayo slapped all over it. Even if I tell the server I don't want it. I'll eat it, no big deal.
I use to work at a mexican chain aka free chips and salsa. Our enchiladas came with cheese and onion. People often ordered them with no onion. That's fine. Chefs get in routines despite me ringing it in correctly, and 15 minutes later the guest finds onions in their enchiladas and quickly informs me they are allergic. This is after they got 3 refills of the free salsa, which is loaded with onions. I loved calling their bluff on this one by asking if I should call 911 because of the salsa.
My Waiter man, in most cases your allergy rant is dead on. However, I'm blessed to work at a place where once the work allergy is mentioned, it's out of the servers hand. I grab a chefs assistant, and that person talks with the guest, talks them through the menu, makes sure every aspect of a disk is ok, makes sure there is zero cross contamination in the kitchen or prep area, and follows through by often cooking it themselves.
@karidaberixx What!? wow, I wouldve died laughing and been like hey everybody get a load of this idiot on the phone; yea thats right the whole restaurant! Chicken pasta!? lmao. Name please, special occasion?
I am a server at a chain restaurant. I also have a gluten allergy. I have informed my co-workers, that if they have a customer who has a gluten allergy, I can help them make well informed choices. Luckly, we have a nutritional book on hand that lists, not only nuttitional info, but lists for pretty much every allergy, what foods the customer with an allergy can eat. I have used this book & it has helped me, not only in helping the guest make the right choice, but in my tips too!
i hate when people say "no onions" or "no pepper" and follow it with "im allergic" and then they order something with those ingredients. when i let them know there's onion powder or some black pepper they change their story and say "oh well i can have a little bit, its ok" ummm ok asshole! youre not fucking allergic! you just dont like it! i used to say i was allergic to vanilla when i was little bc i didnt like it. but then i grew up & grew out of that. adults need to grow up!!
@amto87 I wonder about this though...for example if I eat raw onions, I'll have to run to the bathroom before the meal is even over, but I have no problem with cooked onions. Not an allergy, but something worth noting I guess.
I work at an ice cream parlor where we scoop the ice cream and mix in toppings on a slab of stone. We have a sign posted for the customer telling them to inform us of ANY allergies because of how easy it is for the allergens to transfer when we mix their ice cream. One time we had a customer order a quart of ice cream and didn't tell us of their deadly nut allergy until AFTER their food was done. The woman freaked & the manager had us remake her ice cream. Unfortunately this happens quite often
But seriously this shed some light for me, I used to go to place (just a sandwich shop not a high end restaurant, but that's a moot point) where they'd give you a slathering of mayo on everything, I wasn't allergic, but they used delicious and fresh ingredients and I thought it was a waste to have it all smothered in butterfat, so I'd ask for no mayo. I never said I was't allergic, I think they assumed I was lactose intolerant because sometimes they'd take the cheese off too without me asking.
If guest tells me they don't want a certain ingredient in their dish I ALWAYS ask if there is an allergen, which has gotten me quite a few funny looks, and one lady even told me it was none of my business (Wtf?! Pretty sure it is my business.) but it's better than having someone floppin' around at my table having some sort of death attack because I wasn't careful enough
If you have severe food allergies I sympathize with you, I really do.... But if that's the case maybe you shouldn't eat out at all. If it is a life or death situation for you is it really worth it?! Even if your waiter, and the chefs do everything exactly right and oh so carefully there's always a chance something could be overlooked.

@missnaomi89 Anyone with extreme allergies to the point of "well I'm off to the hospital now!" will carry the appropriate medication like an epipen.
