It's been 5 years since I haven't worked in an upscale fine-dining kind of place and you're absolutely right; that sort of discretion you described IS a major rule in that mileau, I'd forgotten! Anyhow, thanks again and I invite you to come back often.Joe Sixtophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08242065520511683288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4711067561118474358.post-88414577025429997942012-12-07T06:43:23.337-08:002012-12-07T06:43:23.337-08:00When you work at the country club, this is somethi...When you work at the country club, this is something that they tell you from day one - you NEVER refer to a previous visit specifically unless you absolutely know who they were with on the previous visit. You are free to say, "It's nice to see you again" but that's the extent of it. In the country club, you never do it because these people do a lot of business deals with various people and they also entertain various people who might not like it if they were turned down for a visit one day or find out that you were with Mr. So and So (plus, there's the same situation as mentioned in the post that goes on as well). I never would have thought of that on my own, but I saw what they were talking about after a while. <br /><br />I carry that with me to this day. I'm usually very vague in recognizing regulars that I don't know well. I now work in a very "clubby" sort of restaurant where a lot of important business gets done so I see a lot of the same faces over and over, especially at lunch. Most of them I know well enough to call by their first names and I usualy don't have a problem referring to earlier visits, but I usually still don't do it just out of habit. And I usually don't get really familiar with them until the third or fourth visit. A "Nice to see you" is about as far as I get.<br /><br />PS, never, EVER call someone Mrs. So and So unless you ABSOLUTELY know that she's married to her dinner guest, even if it seems that they're married. You might be unpleasantly surprised. This goes for regulars that you assume are married as well. Even older people are sometimes avoiding getting married these days. Don't ask me how I know.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4711067561118474358.post-10761304787148278502012-11-25T00:52:04.253-08:002012-11-25T00:52:04.253-08:00yw & gl!yw & gl!Joe Sixtophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08242065520511683288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4711067561118474358.post-54999307858366947452012-11-23T14:35:32.641-08:002012-11-23T14:35:32.641-08:00Hey thanks for the blogroll add for Fizzy.

And that she had no shame in calling to complain about the result. I'm sure your manager had a good laugh.Rogue Winohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10963991830248344293noreply@blogger.com
