Cocktail Waitressing Help Please read ALL and help me?

( 1 ) 5 different people @ once doesn't happen very often. besides, If your working for a casino, your probably not wearing much & you won't have an apron. So if you take on more than you can remember, most likely you will make mistakes ( costly mistakes ). You have to know the prices of all drinks so you know what to say ( exp - 2 Rum & cokes, 1 w/a lime, $9.50 ) Respond with 10 Dollars. Always round up unless you can handle the weight of change going back & forth for people after being on your feet with heels for over 8 hours. Anyhow, compartmentalized money booklets ( supplied by establishment ) will help you organize different customers. The first order first, & last order @ the end. With little attire, carry it on your tray. All the cameras & security will deter anyone from trying to steal it. ( 2 ) Obtain the cash first in the appropriate compartment. If it's a credit card, each transaction is final unless otherwise instructed. The card has to be approved & besides, everyone visiting is in some way accounted for as legitimate or not. Most people have room accounts & many are comp-ted. ( 3 ) Within the previous answer ( 2 ), credit cards are like ID in casino's, if their not already in the system & the name on the card is not in the system, it soon will be. ( 4 ) Poolside Pineapple and Custom Logo Glass Design. This company deals with many of the strip Casino's for poolside glass ware. Glass is a liability & you will never see it poolside. As far as all the little steps your asking about, it comes with experience. ALWAYS treat repeat customers that are high dollar tippers with care. If you can impress someone that remembers who you are ( not easy in a casino ), anticipate their EVERY NEED before they have to ask. Stiletto heels are for models & porn stars, not servers. If you want the ugliest feet known to man kind, go ahead. Your window period is short!! When you start to feel overwhelmed, ask for help. If your to busy & feel that you will forget something, you will. If your memory sucks write everything down & compartmentalize the order correctly. Walk with your weight mostly on the front part of your foot, this enables you to stop on a dime or change direction quickly. Hydrate yourself constantly & down a 5 hr energy shot after 3 hrs into your shift.
