:: How Not to Get on the Manager's Good Side ::

We just got a new Assistant General Manager at our Steakhouse. He's rather brusque and occasionally trenchant in his interactions with the staff, both front and back of the house. He also has a near-pathological infatuation with the sound of his own voice. Naturally, he's met with some resistance from the current employees and a couple have already left for greener (quieter) pastures.

Last night he questioned me about a certain method we use when serving our guests, and given that he has his own ideas of what constitutes "good" service, my answer wasn't good enough for his tastes. When he voiced his incredulity, I had my own rather sardonic response to which he asked, "Dan-E, are you trying to be a smartass?"

"Not at all. I can be one with very little effort."

Luckily the GM, who does posses a sense of humor, interjected before it got out of hand.
