How many people walked out of this restaurant because it took forever to have them seated without a host/hostess?
How much sales were lost because the guests were fed up when they couldn't get one of the two server's attention?
How much less did they tip because the overworked server didn't provide high level, personalized service?
Will the manager be searching for new staff now that these servers are forced to work and probably bank their overtime causing them to quit?
It's not as simple as saying "Well, we're gonna cut staff and we'll save money".
