Default PSA: Springs1 has returned to CP

In case you haven't been reading the "Good service vs. Attractive servers" thread in the Food and Entertainment subforum, you ought to know that Springs1 has made a triumphant return to these forums. Don't miss what will surely be a legendary thread!

Normally reserved for PGT's after a win, but I think this warrants an exception:

If I realized there was a history there I wouldn't have bothered replying to her.

Don't feel bad, I found your responses REALLY informative. They basically have helped shift my philosophy of food service.

You gave better clarity to how a restaurant should be run from the perspective of someone in the industry as opposed to a generic customer service one that I had.

I would have backed you up, but yeah, I knew of the history haha.

I summoned her here the first time. I think that you are thinking of btimbit's replies to her this time (which I found nicely informative, too)

Thanks guys.

Clearly all my years of running successful restaurants is nothing compared to the experiences of a file clerk that occasionally eats out. What was I thinking!?

Don't you know if the chef makes the order wrong and the server brings it out, that the chef didn't make a mistake!

A little background for those of us who haven't been around long enough to know who she is?

Nevermind, found the "Tipping a Server" thread... Crispy bacon anyone?

She used to have a blog, lamenting the food industry. She still might if you look.

I have a theory that Springs1 is like The Dread Pirate Roberts.

She reveals herself to someone when she's ready to give up the trolling cause, teaches them of the waitress ways and then the new person becomes Springs1 for a whole new generation.

It would explain the countless blogs, and why the writing on the blogs is different than the writing on the forums.
