    Why even stay there with 11 years experience. Unless you’re a shitty server, or it’s in some tiny town and this is the only option, I’m sure you could do a lot better at another better restaurant than waffle house with 5+ years on your resume.

    And they deduct meals? Wtf.

      believe it or not job security. Restaurants come and go and more often they go. Waffle House only closes if a nuclear bomb has detonated within 5miles of it. If you drive past a closed Waffle House it’s probably a good idea to keep driving and quickly.

      And the only way to get fired from a Waffle House is if you literally murder someone while working there. So yes the pay is shit but it’s consistent shit.
