Why Is Showing Real ID So Hard?

Can someone explain why showing a real, physical ID for food or drinks is suddenly the hardest thing in the world? I work at a restaurant, and lately, people whip out their phones and flash a blurry photo of their ID like it’s a golden ticket. Sorry, but a screenshot from 2019 isn’t proof you’re 21. Every time I say, “Sorry, we need the actual card,” it’s instant drama. I get the eye rolls, the sighs, the classic, “But this is me!” or “Other places let me!” Like, cool, but unless your phone can magically turn into a plastic card, I can’t help you. It’s not personal. It’s literally the law. Just bring your ID if you want a drink or a meal that needs age verification. I promise, your phone can handle one less photo. #FoodService #IDCheck #RestaurantLife #GlobalDining #Relatable #Food #Foodie

Do Food Choices Affect How We Tip?

Ever notice how people love to debate which tables tip better? As someone who’s worked in restaurants, I’ve served every kind of table—families, couples, big groups, solo diners. Here’s my hot take: It’s not about race, it’s about how you treat people. I’ve had tables of every background leave generous tips, and I’ve had every kind of table stiff me. The real game-changer? Respect. When you treat guests like they matter, most folks respond in kind. Food brings us together, but kindness keeps the vibe good. So next time you’re out, remember: the best flavor is mutual respect. And if you’re worried about tips, focus on the service, not the stereotypes. That’s my spicy little truth for today. #FoodCulture #RestaurantLife #TippingEtiquette #RespectMatters #GlobalDining #Food #Foodie
