A group of friends went to a new restaurant and noticed that the waiter who took the order carried a spoon in his shirt pocket. It seemed a little strange.
When another waiter brought the water and cutlery, one of the men noticed he also had a spoon in his shirt pocket. Then he looked around and saw that all the staff had spoons in their pockets.
When the waiter came back to serve the soup the customer asked: Why the spoon?
Well, he explained. The restaurants owners revamped all our processes. After several months of analysis, they concluded that the spoon was the most frequently dropped piece of cutlery. It represents a drop frequency of approximately three spoons per table per hour. If our staff are better prepared, we can reduce the number of trips back to the kitchen and save 15 man-hours per shift.
As luck would have it, the customer then dropped his spoon and the waiter was able to replace it with his spare.
Ill get another spoon next time I go to the kitchen instead of making an extra trip to get it right now.
The customer also noticed that there was a string hanging out of the waiters zip on his trousers. Looking around, he noticed that all the waiters had the same string hanging from their flies. So before he walked off, the customer asked the waiter: Excuse me, but can you tell me why you have that string right there?
Oh, certainly! Then he lowered his voice. Not everyone is so observant. The owners also found out that we can save time in the bathroom. By tying this string to the tip of you know what, we can pull it out without touching it and eliminate the need to wash our hands, shortening the time spent in the bathroom by 76.39 per cent.
The customer asked: After you get it out, how do you put it back?
Well, he whispered. I dont know about the others, but I use the spoon.
