• Beyond just the running •
[1½ MIN READ]
We’ve been regulars at Human Robot from the time Wickedly Wet Wednesday was just a monthly tradition (this iCandybyWangC website and following). We watched Herman’s at the Haus leave and Cantina la Martina arrive to take up the food service.
We’ve gotten to comfortable with a couple of the regular servers — Tyler on the HR side and José and Sylvia on the ClM side. They’ve gotten comfortable with us — our regular orders and habits. One habit I developed was a function of us regular runners and overrunners getting comfortable with each other, too.
One of our regular orders is the beef nachos and chicken nachos. Not so many months ago, I started noticing how many orts we tended to leave on the serving platters. Feeling compelled to do something about it and comfortable enough to act, I started collecting the platters and cleaning off those bits of beans, cheese, and meat. (“People, this is food here.”) Being compelled to the point of compulsion, I started really clearing those trays to the point of going back to the kitchen seemingly as clean as when the food went on them. Opinion.
One day Sylvia mentioned how much they appreciated us sending back the platters so clean. It seems that when the dishwasher is out and the servers have to do the work, such well-cleared platters make for easier cleaning. Fact.
So now the other buddies send platters down to me to clear off and the group accepts the continuing comments of appreciation.
Whatever it takes to make the club the best it can be I’m happy to do, especially when it falls in line with my normally abnormal tendencies…
