The manager even gave the guests a heads-up in advance and told them that they would probably be busy in the next few days.
“It doesn’t matter if everyone moves slower, but we can’t panic.”
There was a school near the milk tea shop. Tomorrow was Friday, and the period after school in the afternoon was a very busy time for the shop. There would be long queues of people wanting to order, which was quite difficult for newbies to handle.
Friday to Sunday was the busiest time in the shop. Coincidentally, this was also the time when they were on duty.
During the filming of the variety show, the guests would basically stay in the shop for the next three days.
On the other hand, the street beside the trendy dessert shop was coincidentally next to the scenic area. It was also a place that foreign tourists had to visit. Almost every time, it was very lively.
Liao Jiake and the others happened to run into a shop assistant who was on a break. The shop was extremely busy at the moment, and they were short of manpower. When they arrived at the shop, they did not immediately undergo training. They did not even have a suitable spot to stand.
The shop was filled with people, including the tables and chairs outside the door. The staff who served the dishes ran back and forth several times. Everyone was busy, so they could only let the guests wait by the side for the time being.
There was an older middle-aged man sitting outside. He wanted to ask someone to take his order, but he didn’t have the chance to. When he finally saw the shop assistant walk past him, he said, “I want to order,” the shop assistant asked him to order by himself on the mini app, but he didn’t teach him how to do it.
The uncle took out his phone and fiddled with it for a long time, but he still could not figure out how this process worked. From his slightly frowning expression, he seemed to be a little angry.
[Wuwuwu, I’m really afraid that I’ll be treated so coldly by others in the future.]
[What’s wrong with the shop assistant just now? What’s wrong with taking an order for an old man? It’s too disgusting. How can he treat an old man like this?]
[Damn, how realistic!! Some waiters refuse to take orders just because they have the QR code ordering function. Their attitude is terrible.]
[Although it’s convenient to scan the QR code and order food, it’s not friendly to the elderly at all. I really hope that those waiters can care more about the special group.]
[Actually, I don’t like to scan QR codes and order food. When I go out to eat, I still have to pay attention to their public accounts and authorize my phone number. It’s really annoying.]
When Xu Huaning saw this scene, she couldn’t help but walk forward and take the initiative to communicate with the uncle. “Uncle, do you want to order? I can help you.”
The uncle originally had no intention of ordering, but when he saw Xu Huaning appear, he was inexplicably touched. Seeing that she was so warm-hearted, he handed his phone to Xu Huaning. “Thank you.”
Nowadays, QR codes for scanning and ordering food can be seen everywhere on the tables of physical shops. This kind of service was simple and convenient to use, but there would still be some problems.
“It’s fine.” Xu Huaning took the uncle’s phone and opened WeChat to scan the QR code. She explained to the uncle how to place an order on his own. “Uncle, the next time you place an order, you have to open this QR code scanner on the phone and then scan the QR code on the table.”
The uncle nodded in satisfaction and replied with a smile, “Okay.”
Xu Huanning scanned the QR code for the uncle and loaded it into the order page. Then, she returned the phone to him.
“What do you want to order? Put it in the shopping cart first before confirming the payment. Then, you can just sit here and wait. If you encounter those shops that give out a waiting number, you can just refer to your phone. After paying, there will be a pickup code on it.”
“Thank you, young lady.”
Xu Huaning: “You’re welcome.”
[Xu Huaning, make her popular! She is the kind that has to be famous!!]
[Miss Huanning has a bright future ahead of her. I wish you all the best in winning the grand prize next year.]
[This is the standard a qualified waiter should have, okay? If I were the boss, I would definitely make that guy in front of me pack up and leave.]
…
In order to let everyone get used to their jobs as soon as possible, the manager of the milk tea shop would arrange for everyone to work during the training process so that they could better familiarize themselves with the workflow.
Just now, the shop had also received orders from two WeChat users. Meng Chuyuan had already ridden an electric scooter to deliver food.
Taking advantage of the fact that there were no orders in the shop, the manager began to let Lu Jinsen and the others take over and personally serve the customers.
Liao Jiayan’s task was more difficult. She needed to memorize the method of making drinks and steps of each type of milk tea, as well as differentiate the ingredients.
While the three of them were on duty, they quickly welcomed their first batch of customers.
