This week, Boomer and Pixie return to one of our favorite episodes: bad reviews of places we have worked!

This week, Boomer and Pixie lament why it is we can never have the "nice things" at work. How printer tape in the kitchen can be out an entire service before people start to wonder why there haven't been any salads "ordered". Why is it people have to pull a Shredder on paper napkins, coasters, straws and more. Plus, the "promise tippers" who say they're going to hook up the servers but...don't, pe...

This week, Boomer and Pixie continue to "celebrate" Customer Appreciation Month (really, it's a thing!), but this week we talk about those crazy guests who make us shake our heads in astonishment with their puzzling behaviors. Like video calling...during dinner in a crowded restaurant! Or, taking duck face selfies in the middle of the aisles or in the doorways of the restaurant - the things that m...

This week, Boomer and Pixie celebrate Customer Appreciation Month (really, it's a thing!) and talk about those guests who make the work days worth it - the loyal regulars! The ones who will take care of you when you are sick, protect clerks from robbers, give your chef carte blanche to make them anything, or just make you smile. Even the odd guests, the ones who get a little crazy or can ask you r...

This week, Boomer and Pixie go down memory lane and talk about first jobs. The excitement of making a little money for yourself, maybe doing something you think is cool, and striving for some independence. OR... watching crazy managers set things on fire, explaining where light switches are to medical professionals, and showing entire classrooms of children your naughty bits. PLUS, we talk about o...

This week, Boomer and Pixie turn the tables and talk about things from a customer's POV. We delve into topics like: restaurants who have drink menus but can't actually MAKE the drinks on the menu, old folks and their McDonald's coffee, and what happens when a bad day couples with a severe lack of scones. Plus, why you should always be on your toes because you never know who you may be serving, and...

This week, Boomer and Pixie talk about confusing guests and confused employees. Those moments when you just shake your head and go, "HUH?"

Plus, guests who refuse to pay for food that they specifically asked for, Boomer and Pixie's crazy band names and much more! Lis...

This week, Boomer and Pixie delve into the insane stories people tell to get out of work; the crazy-but-true call-outs. The mother who calls her daughter out of work because she's "crying", the guy who's job is "getting in the way" of his time with his new girlfriend, and the guy who "has COVID" and is quarantining on a boat...with beers and his buddies. Also, people who lie about being sick when...

This week Boomer and Pixie get all worked up about "THAT guy". You know the one, we've all worked with them: the drunk co-worker, the server who is always late but yet comes to hang out on their off days, the manager who makes the schedule yet can't seem to show up at their scheduled time (that THEY scheduled!). Also, heart-broken and drunk chef-nannigans, the mail order bride guy, and a server wh...

This week Boomer and Pixie dive into their pasts and find the WORST reviews for businesses they have worked at.
