'I worked in Wetherspoons - here's the odd secret behind brekkie and the customers I hated'
"Now as a customer I really don’t like the idea of pre-poached eggs, so I don't tend to order them - although I still happily enjoy their chicken wings, burgers and cheap drinks, of course!"Bacon and booze for breakfast
The specific regulations can vary from place to place, but all Wetherspoon pubs follow strict rules for those wishing to drink before a certain time."However, all this meant was customers were forced to order a bacon sandwich with their beer or whatever. "Many bacon sandwiches would remain uneaten, as they were never intended to be consumed by the customer.While the hours working behind the bar could be long, there were perks if wanting to nab cheap food."However I have worked in a fair few pubs and restaurants since, and found the meals for your break are usually free."With so many staff, there is often a birthday party or leaving party or just a party for no reason to enjoy.
"This got increasingly aggressive, until the manager made a decision to turn off the beer taps and lock the fridges, and finally send all the staff down to the cellar to wait out the madness."Thankfully, someone made a wise decision to only allow plastic cups and not to serve spirits!"Some customers were worse than others.
Joe says: "The stag parties were always the hardest to deal with, smashing drinks and being rowdy early on Saturdays usually.
