This week on Beyond the Tip, we’re diving into the subtle (and not-so-subtle) world of passive aggression in the restaurant industry. From fake-smiling guests who weaponize politeness to servers dishing out petty energy with a side of sarcasm, no one’s innocent here. Shea shares the story of a server’s passive-aggressive power move that totally backfired, Megan (as always) gets stuck with the overly polite-yet-ruthless customers, and Mac recounts a table’s insult so wild, it weirdly turned into a compliment: “It tastes like shit... but I like shit.” Yeah, it’s that kind of episode. Oh, and yes—someone actually asked a server to sit down so he could tell her to smile more. Buckle up. It's a passive-aggressive rollercoaster.
