Yes it is and disgusting. I never did it. I hardly ever worked as a server and when I did it was usually just for a few hours until a late server showed up. I didn't care if I got tips and I was only nice to customers who were nice to me. Do I think it's wrong to spit in someone's food? Yes, I do. Do I feel bad for the person who sits for hours taking up time a server could be serving people who don't suck, being completely obnoxious, and allowing their children to make a huge mess then not tipping? Nope. They kind of deserved that.
On a side note...I seriously loved that job. It was a really weird job. When I wasn't serving I made $8 an hour. Occasionally I would cashier or hostess, but mostly I sat at the bar talking with the manager and the owner, waiting for someone to need me for something. Some of my duties:
Answer the phone (I was one of like 3 employees who spoke more English than "hi, what you like to eat?"
Send and receive fax (I was the only person who knew how to use the fax machine. In fact, I bought that fax machine and the computer with the owners credit card)
Deal with the Wednesday DJ, police, annoying customers or anyone else they didn't want to deal with)
Deliver food to the owners friends (who always tipped me but were also super creepy)
Pick up employees who couldn't get a ride (they always gave me gas money even though it wasn't my car and some of then were also super creepy)
(Did I mention I was only 15? And had no drivers license?)
Run to the nearby grocery and pick up whatever we ran out of.
And other weird stuff.
That was the best job ever when I was 15. I don't think I would like it as much now.
