Also, Waffle House employees actually serve the public.

IIRC there’s some urban legend on the subject of weirdest job interview questions.

The Question: “Can you fight?”

The employer: Waffle House

While I appreciate the spirit of the meme, the “gold” line actually represents 911 operators who are THE first responders. This and fire department I really consider to deserve special recognition when it comes to “thin colored line”

I just really appreciate them and empathize for how shitty their job is (imagine having to talk to a racist and IT IS YOUR JOB to dispatch the police they requested, and that’s a good day where you don’t take a call because someone’s 4 year old found their gun and shot themselves) so anyway wanted to share this little factoid

And yeah a lot of dispatchers suck. High turnover because the job also sucks.

My husband is actually a dispatcher, so I agree that it’s a very under appreciated field! It’s a hard, thankless job, so any appreciation is welcome :) My husband also got a kick out of this picture because he’s southern and misses Waffle House dearly since we moved to the West Coast.

Please give him my genuine thanks for his service! I also have people I love that work in the field and see behind the curtain so to speak, so I do get a little excited when I can share with others and praise this thankless but very critical and understaffed job in our society. I hope his 2020 wasn’t as bad as the people I knew and he managed to avoid getting sick in those small offices.

But yeah waffle house is a great joke for this too I think! Actually perfect, deal with the worst of shit, no backup or authority to shut down shitty ppl, and always open even when conditions are unsafe.
