Inspired by George's My World thread, i thought I'd write down some of the wierd, sad, rude and hopefully funny stories i have seen and been part of in 30 odd years of working in hotels and restaurants.
So here goes.
Worked in a town centre hotel that had a problem with pigeons on its roof.
One day the Head chef saw a pigeon in the kitchen and had us chefs turning the place upside down trying to find it.
After about 30 minutes of fruitless searching, none of us found it.
"where did you see it ?" Asked the Sous chef.
"It flew past my office" he says.
Que me looking embarrassed
"What did you do ?" Asked the Sous.
"I threw my dirty oven cloth into the laundry bin next to the Chefs office !" I replied.
Yep it was my cloth the Head Chef saw fly past his office out of the corner of his eye.
I'll post more every now and again.
