Ep. 52 "Giving A Flying F#ck for a Living" Dec 13, 2019

Show notes

Today's episode features a little known tribe of the service industry: Airport Servers. Andrea and Brooke have their minds blown over what it takes to do this job in addition to all of the hoops you have to jump through to even get hired. Last week's anonymous source is back in the discussion because they served time at an airport Chili's and it's complicated and infuriating - just like air travel. And once again, your Server Submitted Stories do not disappoint.

Ep. 51 "Guncles, Retail Hell, and an Anonymous Guest" Dec 06, 2019

Show notes

As the podcast explores the insanity of service oriented jobs during the holidays, we'd be remiss not to include retail employees. Our good friend, who shall remain unnamed, tells us what a typical shift at Target is like while dealing with multitudes of ridiculous customers.

Ep. 49 "Crying in the Corner, Budtenders, & Mike Glazer" Nov 22, 2019

Show notes

We kick off today's episode with both heartwarming and life ending service industry headlines. Then we move into your Server Submitted Stories with our guest co-host Mike Glazer who *might* be the worst sever we've ever had on the show. Luckily, he's found his flow in life being a weed enthusiast which makes him the perfect person to talk with us about the booming cannabis restaurant industry.

Ep. 48 "Hot Truth, YELP, & Sara Schaefer" Nov 15, 2019

Show notes

This episode is an emotional ROLLERCOASTER you guys. We tackle one of the most eye-twitching inducing difficulties of the service industry: YELP. But, before we go there, we invite and interview comedian and writer Sara Schaefer to guest host and tell us about her brief time in the industry, recall a birthday song forever burned into her brain, read your egregious Server Submitted Stories, and THEN try to slay the beast that is Yelp. You might scream a few times during this episode. Be warned!
