Pres and Connor are joined by Brittany to share some of their most "memorable" experiences of the industry. Since they are no longer allowed to have drinks after work at their favorite bar, they decided to jump on an episode to share some stories while drinking... responsibly, of course.

Pres and Connor are joined once again by Malik, this time to have a conversation about the experience of being Black in the industry. As servers, we all have seen the racial prejudice, heard the sly jokes, and it is time to talk about the impact these have and how we can be better. We cannot turn a blind eye any longer, it is our turn to shed light on this issue and help the progress being made to fight for the justice and equality for black people. The time to help one another and show real empathy that will produce real action is now.

We are all anxious to go back to work but how will serving change now that social distancing is in place? Will people feel comfortable going out and interacting with one another? We took to social media and asked for your thoughts on how you think the industry will be affected.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
