"She didn't bother to hide her discomfort". Why should she bother. She's a human being, not a robotoc punching bag for some Karen.

All the reviews, stars, ratings and other nonsense make 0 sense as long as EVERY customer isn't getting rated as well! Or in other words, it's an insane idea and waste of time, energy, money, ... or well, everything!

maybe not bring a crying baby into a restaurant, or sit outside
HeresYourSauce
You will never be able to please everyone. Reviews can be a good learning experience, and an opportunity for self reflection. They can also be an opportunity to learn just how fucking idiotic some people are.
There are oh so many people who have no comprehension they could possibly be doing something wrong. That they're the problem.
I don't really need another opportunity to see just how idiotic people are, but if you're in the right mood it can be fun. Like watching reality TV, just more real

I read one about pork being undercooked due to the pink ring on the "outside" of the meat at a BBQ place.

I find reading bad reviews can be the best reviews. If there's a common problem it's easy to see the trend. One motorcycle helmet had lots of one star complaints about a "blurry visor," and "odd bluish tint to the visor." Turns out dozens of people forgot to peel off the protective wrap, then all went online to bitch about it. Eventually the helmet manufacturer started putting a sticker in the middle of the visor with instructions to peel the plastic off.
HeresYourSauce
Lol. Yeah. I mean during covid there was a mass of reviews of scented candles saying "These don't smell like anything"

There’s a bakery across the road from my house called Forno, and they have a board out in the street with a slightly passive aggressive pissy review on it, awesome.

Good on Dani. We don't get paid enough to deal with the bullshit entitled customers seem to think we should bow down to.
The customer is in fact almost always wrong.
simianruler
Having worked in restaurants, now being a bouncer, I assume the worker did nothing wrong and the customer was awful. The customer probably made a bunch of that up.
tyr2180
I saw a guy fall off the balcony of a bar on the 10th floor. He was definitely not a bouncer.
This has nothing to do with the post or your comment, just a joke I heard that I don’t ever get to repeat because I don’t know anyone who’s a bouncer.
thotterpop
It all seems true though. Employees with hangovers and loud crying babies... Even without the employee's hangover, If I walk in and hear a baby start crying when I'm about to ask for a table, I'm probably gonna say nevermind and leave. They're not just losing my business- people already eating will likely finish early and skip dessert or extra drinks...
simianruler
I did a bit of searching. It was a busy East London diner, and the waitress suggested that they take the child to the heated patio to calm it down, where it was quieter. She does admit she may have looked perturbed, due to being on the tail end of a ten hour shift and having a headache.
LookingLikeASnack
When I worked customer service, the first negative review I ever received detailed multiple interactions with me that just... genuinely never happened at all. They mentioned things that definitely *did* happen, so I know they weren't just confusing me with someone else, but so much of what they lambasted me for just objectively did not happen.
After that I realized that not only is the customer not always right, sometimes the customer is deeply mentally ill.
MySushi
Even if they were speaking in earnest, if your baby is crying, you ought to attend to the baby first maybe and order take-away so you could console them at home or in your hotel room or other baby-centric place that helps soothe them. A restaurant is not stimulating or safe playful environment for children, as it has dangers of kitchen and you would be bothering other patrons. If they were managing their priorities straight as a parent, they gotta give up night life or hire a sitter for dates
whatexactlyisthefunctionofarubberduck
It sounds like the baby started crying once they were there
HappyTimeHollis
Awesome, the 30 other tables worth of people are more valuable to keep for the business than the people who brought a baby that will disrupt their experiences.
simianruler
With a bit of google-fu, while I couldn't find the name of the place, I did find that it's a busy East London diner. Those are loud. The kid probably got overstimulated and was communicating it the only way it knew how. And Dani didn't tell them to go sit outside, she suggested taking their child to the heated patio, where it was quieter, to calm it down.
MySushi
Babies tend to do that, after they have been strapped into a car seat for hours and then again strapped into a high chair. Not being permitted movement for long hours would cause an adult to be constipated and discomforted. A baby too is a human and would be more at ease being permitted to roam about. However, this alternative runs counter to safe work environment for servers working at a fast pace, who could trip over a hurdle, potentially even hurting a baby, so it is not permitted in eateries
PapaTimDankopus
there's a sinister miranda cosgroveness to Dani's face that I love so dearly.
hiyesthisissatan
My husband got a bed review for starting a scheduled hvac job when the homeowner wasn't home. Her child answered the door and my husband thought it appropriate to enter the home and start working! Oh did I mention that the child was a grown ass man because she certainly didn't in her review.
AgnostosQue
I don't see anything that Dani should be proud of. If anything she was a reason a family she was supposed to serve didn't get to eat
Eldis
Trust me, no one wants to serve a family who makes a 1 -star review on the basis of "hey, the baby'd probably calm down better on our heated patio where there's less noise, it's ok if you wait for your table there."
The "customers" lied, dummkopf.

If it is an unreasonable review the all power to wear it. This doesn't seem like an unfair review
LostChaosKnight
A customer gave the lowest star rating possible in every different rating available because… the waitress looked uncomfortable at the noise a crying baby was making, and had the audacity to suggest the family could be seated outside as to not disturb the other customers, staff and basically anybody else involved in the running of a restaurant.
How is it not an unfair review?
“I’m rating the food 1/5 because my baby cried and the server didn’t like it” 😂

Without context it's hard to judge. I only have one side of the story, but I'm sure there's more to it.

If you allow babies in your restaurant, you allow crying babies in your restaurant.

Imagine raw dogging and getting pregnant and thinking you're so fucking special that people should go out of their way to accommodate your mistake. Fuck off
rudejohn
As a parent of two, I also had the common sense to pick him up and walk/comfort my baby outside or in the lobby (if it was too cold for outside) if he was crying in a restaurant - not just sit there and let him cry seated amongst the diners. And there were times during a bad meltdown where we just paid our bill, asked for to-go containers, and left. Being part of society means not being an asshole.
Elkarlo1977
One thing to look at, they didn't say reseat, so most likely they weren't seated or just seated and the baby was already in full crybaby mode. Which means that the Baby was already uncomfortable with the situation. November is not nice for the outside tables either. My personal guess: The first suggestion was "there is a calm corner table in the back" "We want a nice view" "There are the outside seats, your baby is crying so loud it gives me a headdache" Because Dani didn't got fired by her Boss
Skuggen
Or maybe don't use semantic nitpicking to overanalyze the situation, only to then follow up with wild guesses about their behavior.

I agree! Babies shouldn't be allowed in restaurants!

Onetonmanwithaspoon
I will agree with you to a point that if your baby's crying due to a known illness or condition, in this case a headache (as documented by the reviewer), then you really shouldn't be expected to be allowed to disturb the other customers.
PithyCommentBelow
Interesting. I read that as Dani had the headache (which is why she asked the manager to seat them outside).
Ulthirm
Hmm we can see how you read it that way but we're pretty sure the suggestion was that the baby cried from their headache, and so the family was recommended to eat in the outside portion of the restaurant. The suggestion most likely being because a crying baby will bother a large portion of the restaurant.
MageMana
I read it that way too. Maybe I'm dumb but how would you know that a baby is crying specifically because of a headache?
rayleon0702
You are right and I find it appalling that so many people have issues with reading comprehension. The continuous use of "she" in the same sentence referring to the same person should give it away but I guess the baby also showed discomfort. and disdain towards its own (or in this case "her" if we include the wrong gender assumption since there was no gender stated) family.
NickRivieraMD
It's probably Dani they're referring to but the grammar is bad, and it really could be either.
Onetonmanwithaspoon
That may be the case, but either way it is still a disruption to let your kid keep crying for long periods of time.
Carl99
Tell em you've never had a baby without telling me you've never had a baby. You don't get complete control over when they start or stop, you can reduce the chance they'll start and take steps to try to get them to stop, but you cannot fully control it.
PithyCommentBelow
1000%. I get that it isn’t under your control. But whether you sit with a screaming kid in a public place IS.
Luvlyquants
Outside tables are a part of the restaurant too. Go Dani Go! :)
valen00
I'm not american, We don't tip people here. Dani would get a tip even if she weren't our waiter.
mikeatike
If she wore this to work, it would be epic. I think I could like any establishment with this level of silliness. This is the kind of peices of flair I could respect.
onemorethanme
Or maybe if ppl are bothered they can go outside. Im sure you would love it if you were discriminated against because your eaitress had a headache. Maybe Dani should stay home.
canadianreserve
Maybe take your food to go and take your kid home. Not sure when people with kids started being so inconsiderate in public, but it's not a positive trend.
ThisOneKid
Between a person with a headache and a person with a crying kid, it's usually not the person with a headache that everyone dreads being stuck with.
BrdCdn
Nah, I'm a dad with three little ones and if they are throwing a complete shit fit, it's time to go outside for a bit. Kids are kids and shit happens, but there's a limit. Offering a table outside so you can still eat was kind enough.
Fuzzynubz
Nah, honestly Dani sounds like a cunt.
randomdrifter54
Yes because a review by an obviously angry person with no context on what actually happened is the full and complete story. We know that the reviewer was angry about something (you can lie on the Internet); that someone, reportedly dani, put the review on a T-shirt( you can lie on the Internet); and that the review happened in November(where in November is also in question, as well as the weather). Like if you assume all of it is true, i still don't have enough info to make assumptions.
darthinebriated
mikeatike
Ok, Karen.
unableraven
If it was really just a slightly fussy baby, Dani would have been fired. But the boss didnt fire her for this. That tells me whether it was the baby or the parents obvious lack of care of the baby that made them suggest outside were they could let the baby scream all they want without the parents intervening, they were most likely the ones with an issue that the restaurant was trying to solve.
Fuzzynubz
Do you have children?
Dragongelf
i do and i consider others people's feelings when going to a restaurant.

I had a customer threaten to sue me personally for the contents of their storage locker being wet, when 1.) they were advised, by me, NOT to open their unit during the heaviest wind/ rainstorm of the season, as the roll-up doors have no awning (gale-force wind was blowing heavy rain straight into the open door), and 2.) their contract agreement, signed by them, clearly states we are not responsible for the safety of their stored goods.
My boss and I had a good laugh over that. OK Bring it on.
TheBlueMuppet
I once got a unit for storing my car. I was there for an hour because the employee helping me was talking on the phone for about 20 min while i waited alone. After that, they seemed unwell, and after having a lay down behind the counter, i had to call 911 for them. He had vertigo brought on by heat exhaustion. I had my unit 3mo, got no discount or special treatment, and got rid of it cause i stored the car at home. Cost me $500 to call 911 for some guy i don't know, lol.
ziggystardust7
Why would you get charged? Since when is that a thing? What if you had just not given your name/info when they arrived? Like I've heard of the patient being charged for an ambulance ride but never the 911 caller? I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS
TheBlueMuppet
I rented the unit, goofball, it costs money, lol.
Badprenup
So despite the way you told the story and framed the ending of it the reality of the situation is: You paid for a rental unit and then CHOSE to never use it.
Could have gone back the next day to put the car in. Or the next day, or the week after. But you didn't. The rest of the story isn't relevant.
TheBlueMuppet
On the contrary, the point was that i was not having a good time when i got the unit. The irrelevant part was whether i used it or not. It turns out the wife didn't mind an ugly car in the driveway, so i ended up having a place to put it. I was aiming to use the storage unit to work on it, but it was less mobile than originally thought, so i couldnt get it there. Took 3mo to get the legals worked out. When they were, and i knew where it could stay, i cancelled the unit i never used.
Luvlyquants
The number two (2.)) assumes that idiots know how to read. :)

My dude, over the years I was manager there, SO many people whipped through those 4 pages signing on the line while ignoring ALL the text. Everyone seemed to show up in a blinding panic, like they had no forethought, no plan whatsoever, they'd been tossed out on the street and desperately need to put their stuff somewhere. In 11yrs I can only remember 2 or 3 times someone actually read it.
I read it because I have to sign it too (as the owner's agent) so I was damn sure I knew what it said.
Orsoks
no one read anything now... my dad told me to always read what i sign.
i remember few years back, i was at the bank and had a contract to sign, the banker gave me the paper and the pen, i put the pen away, I leaned against the back of the seat with the paper and sarted to read... the banker asked me what i was doing... he was surprised that actualy someone read the contract before signing
spontaneous9
Signing on to a new job, they handed me a 105-page booklet document "Employee Conduct Agreement," then refused to wait while I read it (yeah come back tomorrow lol), and expected me to just sign it, we got stuff to do places to go etc. Just flip to the back page, sign it & date it. Don;t you wanna be part of the FAMILY?
Since I quit that job, I've received no less than 3 class-action settlement checks from them due to other people suing them for overlooking stupid improprieties like that one.
SpicyGoober
I worked in IT at a very large self storage company so I heard so many stories of the crazy people. That one was a fairly common occurrence especially in hurricane prone location
spontaneous9
The bigger the company the worse they are IMO. The mom-and-pop LLC I originally worked for had the best healthcare deal, the best hourly pay rate (with OT) and consequently, the happiest co-workers.
dbox
I don't understand the vast numbers of self storage units. People have too much crap.
LeoFloof
Someone I know has one that is mostly 1/4 full boxes and $5 duplicate items like unopened cheap shower rods.
They’re also storing bulk food (for the upcoming doompocalypse?) in non-airtight containers. In the northeastern USA, minutes from the coast.
I get it - I really do. Anxiety disorders can be genetic, and there are lot of hoarders in my family. I have it in me, and it’s a struggle. But not once have I regretted working out the anxiety I get from disposing of a technically ‘usable’ item.
spontaneous9
Storing food is a big no-no where I come from. Instant eviction. No exceptions. I had to throw a very nice homeless guy out of my facility because he kept a 30lb bag of dog food in a galvanized steel garbage can with a tight-fitting lid inside his tiny 4'x4' unit. Buying in bulk was the only way he could afford to feed his doggo. He accessed his locker every day like clockwork. But the boss caught him scooping food for the day into a paper bag so he could feed his pup and that was it. Bye-bye.
JoeT85
that's the idea. its plays on the idea that everything is collectable and all your old trash is valuable.
ziggystardust7
not saying this applies to this situation at all.... but isn't "the safety of the stored goods" kind of exactly what a storage facility is responsible for? for instance, what if the place burned down, or got flooded, or was robbed?
spontaneous9
Nope. In all of those cases, the contract agreement protects the company from liability. Sign here, or store your stuff elsewhere. Period. Not one single thing, be it leakage, fire, "acts of god," rodents, insects, theft, vandalism, employee negligence, etc., has been overlooked. If you put your stuff in storage it's on you if it gets ruined, lost, burned or stolen. Otherwise they can NOT do business in a litigation-happy society such as we have today. Plus, they can make you buy insurance.
ziggystardust7
that's wild... appreciate the info, hope i never need to use one then 😅
spontaneous9
Storage is for relocating. It's not a defeat to need it, but have an exit strategy. Set a deadline & keep it. Know the rules (read the contract).
They're built on cheap land, like flood plains on riverbanks. Don't be there during flood season, OR, get an indoor warehouse unit, hopefully 2nd floor. Avoid outdoor drive-ups unless it's just for a month. Cover soft goods w/ plastic. Get boxes of uniform sizes for efficient use of space, & pay the rent on time or they WILL hold/ auction your stuff.
Carl99
Yeah i get the feeling this wouldn't fly legally speaking in large parts of the world.
And to put it bluntly, any business that does operate like that is simply a predatory one interested only in its own self enrichment and can go get fucked.
barbarian818
I can see how the operator can't be responsible. Far too much opportunity for abuse. But I'll admit it feels like a cab driver not being responsible if he drops you at the wrong address.
nojustsayitdont
I work in a family restaurant. Kids and babies are part of the family. Kids make spills, babies are known to cry. It is what it is. Now if she was working in an adults only library which served wine, I could see the attitude. Granted nobody enjoys a crying baby. And almost every parent I've ever seen in my store that had a crying baby, looked mortified about it, and 98% of the time would take the kids out for a short walk to work out whatever the issue was.
BigFatFailureTurtle
If you have a baby, you have to accept that there are certain things you simply can't reliably do. A baby crying endlessly in a setting where others are paying for a relaxing atmosphere is simply unacceptable. It's one thing if the child starts crying during the meal, and one parent has to leave with them. Trying to get seated with the kid actively crying shows the parents chose their priorities.
rubberbear
It's tough. We both expect new parents/parents with you g kids to essentially disappear from public life and then wonder why so many parents get severely depressed. And also most restaurants are not really good places for small children. Where I live there are loads of restaurants and cafes that have specific sections for little ones with play areas and everything. I wish it were more common to see this kind of accessibility.
Eldis
We don't. We expect the parents to have even the slightest resemblance of affection towards their new human, and not force a baby through a shitty time in a restaurant. It's simply not an environment where the baby can be confortable - we're not mad about the fact they had the audacity to bring something loud to a public space, we're mad about the fact they don't give a shit about their baby to the extent they bring it to a restaurant instead of taking care of them.
rubberbear
I'm talking about restaurants like this one. They exist and should exist. Also there's more reasons than pure self indulgence to go to a restaurant - house flooded? Staying at a hotel? Home for a wedding/funeral/graduation etc. Life continues on even after people have kids and we leave a lot of new parents behind when we can find ways to make things more inclusive.
rubberbear
Eldis
This thread started because "nojustsayidont" asspulled an imaginary attitude the waitress had when the waitress just asked if the parents would like to wait their table in the heated patio, and you continued it with "we expect parents with young kids to disappear from public life", both which are complete nutcase takes anywhere in Europe.
