Server Chronicles- All credit for this post goes to our senior food runner. Great guy. His wife is beautiful and kind. One of the most adorable couples I’ve ever met. He agreed to me posting this as long as all financial compensation for this idea goes to him. Did I mention he’s a businessman too?

I grew up watching court shows. Back in the day, People’s Court was the only reality court show. I remember the theme song and how the plantiff and defendant would enter those huge double doors. I was glued to that screen. My father and I always had comments.

Imagine a similar thing but it’s for the food industry. The theme song is playing. The plantiff walks in first. Then you hear the voiceover as the plantiff raps the papers in the podium. “Plantiff Karen Collins is suing server Jess Jones for allegedly finding food with blonde hair in it. She wants a free meal.” The screen then types her name and reason as she flips back her blonde hair.

Then in comes Jess Jones. Jess is worn out from working three double shifts, is probably hungover, and would rather be anywhere else. The theme music continues. “The defendant Jess Jones denies such a claim and states that all the cooks have brown hair or are bald. She claims the plantiff lost her damn mind and is countersuing for a 30% tip.” Then the camera would freeze on Jess and the countersuit would quickly type out beneath her.

All rise! Food Court is now in session. The honorable Judge Imani presiding. I’d have on my signature bandana with cool earrings.

Who would watch that show? I would. Get a server to speak their real mind on camera? That would be entertaining right there!
