They Aren’t Always the Best for You
Being a worker at a restaurant is not a very highly paid job and they work on an hourly basis. Most people are in this job to earn a few more pennies, which means that they may have to come to work sick sometimes. Instead of calling it an off day. We often seem to interact with these possibly sick servers. Moreso, when they touch the silverware and give it to us.
This increases the likelihood of the customer getting sick as well I’m sure the workers don’t love coming to the office all sick but it’s usually because the restaurant is short-staffed or either they don’t provide health care facilities to their waiter or witnesses; leaving the servers no choice but to act their best.
