Tricks of the trade (Updated: 16th August 2008 12:55)
Here we go, I've always been curious of what experiences and tricks some of you guys have been taught or come up with in your specific Job/trade.

basically it could be anything useful:

Heres a few that always can help you, if you have to earn money with RL customers:

RL customers
Purchase a "stain removal pen" and carry it your apron. Then when you see a customer get a spot of food or drink on their clothes, offer it to them. The pens cost about € 1.50 a piece, but they average about 10-20 uses and you'll typically make an extra €uro off each patron you offer it to.

Either through sympathy points, resulting to higher sales, tips, positive memories as in customer binding aso.

Bad Name Memory:
If you are unable to remember someone's first name, simply ask them: "What's your name?" When they reply with their first name, laugh and say "Oh no, I knew that, of course. I meant your last name". This is a much more acceptable thing to forget--and you still get their full name.

Waitering:
Late at night most restaurants adopt a "Seat Yourself" policy. Here's something you can do if you're working this shift and want to attract customers to your section.

When you see someone approaching the door, go to a table in your area of the restaurant and wipe it with a towel. Finish up just as they enter, straighten up the condiments, and walk away briskly. Nine times out of ten, they'd head right over.

The same scenario works for all kinds of sales, with using different settings (so use ur fantasy)

anyone got any more stuff you'd want to share?

Oil, grease and gasoline stains: time saver
Don't use kitty litter to get grease and gasoline stains off the cement in your Driveway --you will never get it all. Instead, use powdered dishwasher detergent. Let it sit for about 10 minutes, then scrub back and forth with a stiff broom before sweeping it away. It will break down the grease and soak it up at the same time.
