The hotel doesn't allow waiters to eat leftovers, even if the guests don't eat a bite. Why?

Personally, there are several reasons:

1. Hotels will ask waiters not to eat these leftovers at work for their corporate image.

A hotel is a place for everyone. What do guests think if employees eat by themselves, especially when they see waiters eating leftovers? Then the guests' impression of this hotel will get worse, and they will not come here for dinner and treat again. In order to avoid this situation, the hotel will of course ask the waiter not to eat leftovers. Every enterprise has its own corporate culture, and hotels are no exception. They also have their own industry requirements. Even if there are no detailed requirements, for ordinary hotels, waiters are not allowed to eat at work.

The hotel has strict requirements on food safety and hygiene. Food is the most important thing for people, and food safety and hygiene can not be ignored.

Part of the reason why hotels ask waiters not to eat leftovers is to ensure the food safety of every employee. The leftovers of the guests have been served, so even if the guests don't move, they may be contaminated, such as droplets and saliva splashing, which makes these foods contaminated and inedible. The hotel asked waiters not to eat these leftovers, also for the health of employees. If the waiter gets sick or poisoned by eating contaminated food during work, it is a big deal.

3. Let employees develop good habits.

After all, for delicious food, everyone may have a big forefinger and want to taste it. If the waiter forms such a bad habit, he will secretly eat the guest's food, which is not good behavior for the hotel. For example, when the waiter takes a bite while serving, no one will find out. In order to prevent waiters from forming bad habits, hotels will strictly require waiters not to eat leftovers or eat at work, even their own food, unless they are at rest or when employees are dining.

Of course, as a waiter, you should also have your own professional ethics. Do not take the leftovers of the guests away for eating without authorization, and handle them scientifically according to the requirements of the hotel to avoid waste and violation of hotel rules and regulations.
