    In our job the etiquette and the rules are created for the right handed people! That is why it is really hard for a left handed person to do the job properly, but don't get discouraged, I have worked with so many left handed waiters and they are doing an excellent job, no matter what!

    Hi Chauncy, I believe you started a new job recently. It is normal to be out of time, especially when it is all new. There will be slow period too though and you will get better with time. You will find ways to interact with the guests but even if it is not happening try to learn as much as possible about the job of the waiter so you can move up sooner. The money are with the waiter :) Good luck, man!

    Just curious do you have a video on bussing in bar and grill style restaurants that have a faster turnover than fine dining. Like one that does say 1000 covers a day peak season. I'd like to meet the balance between etiquette and speed. I'd say above casual but below fine dining environment. Any tips for me?

    watch the video: How to bus tables fast! YOu will have to navigate between the two! It depends what your manager allows you to do while busing a table and the requirements of the job...sometimes those two contradict themselves , if you know what I mean! Still, there is a way to do things fast but still do it with elegance and style!

    Thanks for the video. How do we know if the tips from the guests that they leave on the table is for you or for the waitress? And what if the waitress doesn’t want to share the tips with you, what should a busser do? Also, if there is no tips on the table but rather on the check, do the waitress and a busser will share or it depends on the waitress?

  • @TheWaitersAcademy

    Every restaurant has a system of sharing the tip! The money on the table are not for you, if you are a busboy or busgirl! The money on the table are for the service and the waiter collects that and then share it with the other people according to the system! If a guest gives you money in your hand, than those are your money and you can keep it. Try do the best job you could possibly do and don't worry about the money too much! The money will come! Make sure that you learn and practice all you could to become a waiter in 6 months or up to 1 year! Good luck

    Clumsy HOPE, it depends where you are working! I was in Florida at the beginning and started as a busser in a small family restaurant! They paid me 4.50$ an hour and then the servers gave me another 10-15$ every day tip! it wasn't much but as a beginning I was happy! in Grland Lux I was tipping my bussers around 40$ a night! one busser works for two waiters so you can expect around 60-70 dollars a day plus 6.50$ an hour salary! If you work lunch though, that will be much less! As a busser you don't make that much but this should be just the first step for everyone who wants to be a waiter! you work as a busser few months and you move to wait tables! then the sky is the limit! Good luck!

    Andrei, good question! We all get overheated during rush hours! Even as an experienced waiter i catch myself sometimes running little too fast! Stop, take a breath and see what is the next task ahead of you! Talk to yourself! Tell yourself that no matter how bad it is, it will be over in an hour or so! If you take a second to think you will be able to organize yourself better and maybe combine two or even three tasks in one trip to the kitchen or the bar and save time! There is always something you can do better or faster if you can keep calm and poised!

    I have a like a question . Should you do like initiative like bussing the plates in between courses or is it better to ask permission to the person in charge before doing it? I am scared to bus the plates because I think it might cause confusion when they fire the tables orders. 2. Should I only do my specific tasks like bussing the plates in the oval tray and glasses in the service station( keeping it empty all the time) 3. Should I focus on the replenishing the silverwares, small plates, and making coffee? 4. Is it okay if you cannot bus all the time ( like doing beverage orders and doing some errands) and lastly speed in money that position right? I am dreaming of becoming a good Waiter someday, just improving my language skills . Hoping for your kind response and more power to you, I also watch all of your youtube videos Very informative and insightful for people working in the industry.

    Hi Seiji, thanks for those questions and best of luck with your career in the future! First of all, you have to make sure that you are doing everything your job requires perfectly and then if you have time you should try do something extra, so you can help your head waiter and also learn how to do things! Bussing tables on your own is advisable only if you are an experienced busser and you have worked that with your head waiter! Other than that I would suggest you wait till you get a queue from him and then bus a table! You are saying that you are scared so I will assume you are a new busser! Then it is fine if you just attend to your duties and don't take extra responsibilities until you feel comfortable with the job! If your waiter has asked you to go get the drinks for a table it is perfectly OK to do it and of course, at this time you won't be able to bus the tables! If you are working for two or three waiters at the same time ( as is the case most of the time) you should make sure that you are not needed on the other station to perform your assigned duties before you do a favor to one waiter and go get his drinks! Whatever you do, the best thing is to communicate to your waiters all the time! If I send you for the drinks you tell the other waiters that you will be missing for a minute or two and then go get it if they are OK with that! You will become a great waiter one day! Take it step by step and try to learn as much as you can from every situation and from every person you are working with! Good luck!

    What do you think is the difference between a busser and a backwaiter?

  • @TheWaitersAcademy

    @TheWaitersAcademy

    6 жыл бұрын

    Hi Tim, another great question! Thank you! Depends on the type of restaurant and the point of view! I can say there is a huge difference and you can say there is no difference. In casual dining the waiter work alone and he has a busser who helps him and maybe a runner as well! Most of the places use one busser for two or three station so the guy doesn't have much time for anything but cleaning and setting up tables! Still I have work in casual with busgirls and busboys that go out of their way to help me more with service, so they can get paid better and they can learn my job faster and grow! Then in fine dining you have Head waiter and back waiter! off course the job of the back waiter is overlapping with the duties of a busser but because he is fest on the station with me he has to do much more than bussing and setting up tables! Wine service, prepare the silverware for the next course, taking orders when I am busy and as a whole everything that the head waiter does, when the head waiter doesn't have the time he should be able to do it! The busser I would assume won't be able, because he is trained differently! Then in really special places, like Grand Hotel Tschugen for example in Switzerland the system is Chef de Rang ( Head waiter), Demi Chef de Rand ( back up waiter) , Comie de Rang ( busser) plus you have Metro di, runners, sommelier and even more! Than the back up waiter provide mostly service and the busser mostly bussing! So those are my observations and my thoughts on the subject :) How's it going with your job and the problem you had? Is it getting better?

    Hi Ned! Yep, that's how I define a backwaiter proper: busser + runner + polisher + everything else to support a waiter. I've been a backwaiter for a casual fine dining Italian and casual New American restaurant (but all under the same hospitality group) for two years now, and can confirm that backwaiting proper is a great way to prepare to become a waiter, which I now am at a Japanese casual fine dining restaurant. One thing I'd like to add to your video: A valuable skill to develop while backwaiting is awareness. It won't happen over night, but as the relevant skills are practiced repeatedly, they become habits ingrained not just in muscle memory but also mentally. They're essentially virtues: the automatized awareness when a skill situationally applies. Over time, all these relevant skills become second nature in that one doesn't have to think about them (hence the automatized awareness), and that allows one to think about other things. One can buss while observing and talking to tables! When one reaches this point, he can be considered to have approached mastery. And with that mastery comes the awareness from quickly scanning a room of not only the needs of guests but also of your FOH and BOH team. I'm still keeping my backwaiting job while I keep a close eye on my new waiter job. I make much more money backwaiting, but that's because the restaurant makes a lot of money while the Japanese restaurant I wait at is brand new. My problem with one of the sushi chefs has gotten better as it's become clear that the problem isn't just me--other sushi chefs have also described him as "erratic"! I'm just focusing on getting better and I think that erratic sushi chef will eventually respect me. Unfortunately, a new major problem has arisen: To make a long story short, the head chef got fired for treating certain reviewers (i.e. Yelpers) poorly! This is entirely beyond my control, so I hope the restaurant quickly finds a replacement head chef. I really want this new restaurant to succeed so I can quit my backwaiting job; until then, I'm working full-time between these two part-time jobs! A new challenge has also arisen: My manager wants me to focus on reading body language as I interrupt tables too much. This makes sense since as a backwaiter, it was expected of me to interrupt tables; but as a waiter, I have a higher standard. So I have to resist the habit--developed during my backwaiting career--of immediate table maintenance or bussing. Instead, I need to focus on minimizing my visits to the table.

    Tim, it seems to me that you have the knowledge and you are growing since you are now working as a head waiter. If that is your first head waiter job, don't judge yourself too harshly. We all need time to develop the full set of skills that will make you the best waiter in the world! Not interrupting the guests while still providing the best service is one of them :) , you must have a really good manager if he sees the problem and tells you that! You are on the right track, buddy! Keep giving your best and the sky is the limit!

    Ned, thanks for the kind words. But to be clear, I'm only a waiter in training and not a head waiter. I've wondered if my manager is good. Since this is my first waiter job, I don't have a benchmark, but I was impressed when he told me about my problem of interrupting tables! This is what I like about you and your channel: It's dedicated to being the best. I can relate because I take pride in my work, whether it's waiting tables, backwaiting, being a business analyst, etc. Being the best you can be--as you say--translates to more money and that translates to a better life! I got my first restaurant job 2 years ago because management saw this rock star trait in me, which paid off. People still are amazed that waiters can make $100,000 a year (the waiters at my first restaurant could have made that if they worked full-time). So yes, it's definitely worth being the best!

    Sorry for the delay! Don't wait to get there. Call your HR or manager and tell them to send you the menu, wine list, and if they have training manual, so you can start preparing. Are they LQA property or leading hotel of the world, learn the standard. Floorplan of the restaurant and the computer system interface are also things you can become familiar before you hit the restaurant! Make sure you can carry trays, plates, and now the basic service rules! I have no idea how did they hire you without experience but....good luck!
