I usually have a female dining guest and make them responsible for the hostess name tag. I have received some dirty looks trying to get it as I'm being seated. One clearly saw I was trying to read the tag and spelled her difficult name for me and rolled her eyes as she pulled her shirt away from her chest by about three inches by the tag. I have no idea what she thought I was, but I don't think she thought I was a shopper with that attitude.
I did a bar/dining shop and the bartender was wearing a name tag that said one name and introduced them self as another name. Then when I closed out the bar tab, the receipt had a third name on it.
I gave a very detailed description along with all three names. They probably forgot a name tag and borrowed one out of the name tag junk drawer (most places have one with employees that quit) and then used another bartenders drawer.
The editor did not question the report.
