Meaks   11 #265 Posted July 23, 2007 Why don't they invite some select forummers from this thread to practice serving drinks to? Then, later in the evening, they can sharpen up their customer service skills when we are all drunk and lairy, then the bouncers can practice throwing us out. Everyone's a winner!  * puts hand up *  Me! Me!  Of course we would need to test a selection of beers, spirits and wine. For staff training purposes of course.

feargal   21 #266 Posted July 23, 2007 Absolutely for staff training only. I would also think that the kitchen staff would benefit from serving a selection of nosh. Y'know give hints on presentation and that kinda thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Is there such a thing! I am very upset I didn't get a VIP invite to a wetherspoons opening, guess ill just have to wait till it opens, such excitement, i wonder if it will be just like the rest up and down the country, corporate and characterless selling microwaved food and cheap beer.

BoroughGal   10 #276 Posted July 26, 2007 I was gonna update but looks like I'm a bit late really...  I saw about 7 or 8 staff members all huddled around the back doors on Walkley Lane yesterday, in uniform (black polo shirts, black trousers??), having a fag.  Got to be very nearly there now.
