Working on Sundays is the absolute worst day of the week. In my opinion, it should be the best. But every person in the food industry dreads this day. And its not from just a general busyness, but the fact that Sunday customers are the worst kind.
By Sunday customers, I am referring to the church goers.
If Christianity were lived out the way it suppose to be, in theory, shouldn't Sunday customers be the ones that restaurtants look forward to the most? Shouldn't they be eager to see regulars who take the time to know their name, ask about their lives instead of gripping about their own? Shouldn't they be amazed by how polite and kind Sunday customers are?
Shouldn't tips on Sunday be overwhelmingly generous? That is the biggest complaint I overhear from employees. Christians are notoriously stingy. Maybe these Christians feel they have done their good deed for the day by writing their weekly 10% check to the church. Screw the rest of the world. They are secular heathens, best to save our money for something worthwhile. Like my retirement fund.
Yeah, because that's definitely what the Bible teaches. /sarcasm
So here's a practical, entirely mundane suggestion: be generous. As a Christian, everyone is watching you and judging. Go above and beyond, impress them. It's not like you can take your money with you in the end anyway.
