Bosses made me lock up the towels and aprons because we kept running out before delivery…
And uh… yeah I'd say its working 😳

To be clear, the staff can have as much as they want/need, they just have to ask a manager before running off with a million towels.

Not uncommon. I had to do the same thing.

So those are not reusable toilet paper things?

Your boss needs to order more linens and is being a cheap little shit.

A tale as old as time. Soon you’ll have to start cutting your green scouring pads in half.

One of our concept locations didn’t work out so we renovated the space into a massive two bar flagship version of our strongest concept which has multiple locations
Had to install a produce walkin for the basement and ended up putting some drywall up so that it didn’t look so barren and basementy
I set up a dummy piece of wall as a joke and hid a bag of towels behind it. We get slammed one Saturday and linens had fucked us on a delivery all week
I’m running expo and we get through the rush. Everyone is beat but whatever
I step off expo as tickets slow down before late night happy hour so that I can start checking with everyone on prep lists in stations for morning crew. Happy hour sucks but you just get shit done in that 30 minutes customers are waiting at fuckin 9:30pm before it’s all hands on deck again
Every station is getting flipped and cleaned but we’re out of towels
I tell my grill dude to come with me and grab a hammer and start whacking at the fake wall I set up
He’s freaking out because we’re in a basement and I’m apparently having an episode
*Reach into the wall and grab the bags of towels* “Here go hand those out”
“…. How long have you been waiting to do this? Are there more?”
“There might be- actually wait no there was just that one please don’t start demolishing the walls if you run out of towels”

Worked somewhere that locked up the towels. BOH and FOH each got SIX per day (one for each BOH, three for servers three for the bar.) It was disgusting because the opening sidework for FOH involved cleaning the bathrooms with one of the six towels and that towel would get put with the other ones used to clean tables.

At this old restaurant I worked at one of the cut duties for servers was laundry and they hated it Servers had to wash, dry, and fold aprons and towels.
We would get new ones only as needed

It works. You get 2 per shift. 1 for wet and 1 for dry. If something requires additional towels, let me know. Dont even get me started on aprons.
