We have a Mexican dishwasher. He is always drunk, yet somehow never breaks a dish.
He also has a thing for the ladies. Depending on his level of intoxication, he will call you a beautiful princessita americana and that he loves you, all the way to ass-smacking. He has never touched me, I think he knows better after seeing me fight with the cooks and cause I'm 'the baby.'
However, Thursday night one of the ladies and I decided we had a rough night, and we wanted a shot of his vodka. Since then, it's non-stop.
"Oh, beautiful prencessita. I love you, te amo, you're beautiful."
He's grabbing on the other woman. It got to the point tonight that all the cooks and the busboy said he had had too much. We were afraid to go in the kitchen.
I'm pissed because everyone knows he's a drunk and terribly annoying when he takes it too far. But the owners won't do anything because he works for peanuts, under the table.
I'm going through a really rough patch right now in my personal life, and work is piling more and more shit on top of it. I feel I'm near my breaking point after five years. Le sigh.

ReplyDeleteHi, just from personal experience, this is NOT the time to hit the vodka! Good luck w/everything
Haha I know, I know. That would just be running away, not solving any problems.
DeleteI appreciate your thoughts and concern :)
Shame on the owners. I was harassed by a cook @ my first waitressing job and it sucks. No touching, but waaaaay too much innuendo. I was too young and timid to tell anyone, plus he had been w/the company for years and I was new, so I was scared. But you shouldn't have to deal with it.
ReplyDeleteI would get one of those nifty little key chain pepper sprays and hide it in my apron, in case he does put his hands on you. :)
Hope things get better for you soon!
That sucks they won't say anything or do anything about the dishwasher!
ReplyDeleteTell him you will call immigration if fucks with you!
