Sometimes then you are working hard for the money (and I'm sure this happens everywhere)...you will get stressed at some point, usually because of a lazy employee, and have a small breakdown. This is the point where the art of a scumbag comes in to play. I even like to refer to it as simply "scumbaging someone" or perhaps "what a scummy move".
This art is very delicate and must always be done with the utmost discretion. Once you get the hang of the game you will defiantly appreciate the reaction you get from your superiors or co-workers. At this point I must remind everyone I just learned this art from a dedicated workplace somewhere in Ames Iowa. One of these bar restaurant places that try to crank food out like burger king.
Scumbag maneuvers usually refer to a stocking or rotating problem. It is usually something the night crew will do to the morning crew and then in return the morning will leave the kitchen a mess and empty for the night crew.
It is unfortunate that I am usually part of the morning crew and my discipline would keep me on task....however I got over that after a while.
Ex.
Some prawn purposefully leaves something empty on the front line that will be most likley needed first thing in the morning.
In on kitchen that may be cooked bacon strips
In another kitchen it cold be mixed lettuce
Either way something like that if not caught quick enough would be scummy.
Anyhow that would be the first lesson in the art of scumming. It is not always some prawns fault, however negligence is not an excuse.
