I was kinda shy about getting my first job and have been paranoid that I would mess everything up and end up losing my job. This video has given me the confidence I need and I feel like I cant do this easily. Thanks for the instructional video
Same bro I just got hired as a buss boy and they want me to work the dish out too and I'm sooooooooooo nervous today's my second day wish me luck 😂😂😂😂😂
Every person I ever trained I started by telling them YOU'RE the dishwasher! The machine is ONLY A SANITIZER!!!! The dishes need to be as clean as possible before being put into/through the machine. I always taught people silverware always goes through twice too. It actually touches your mouth so sanitation is at a premium.
You gotta put find who is your best sprayer person for the dishwasher spot. Very important because although everyone has to rotate, some people are much slower than others at spraying and you can’t ha d that during a busy rush. I’ve had many people who were slow and I had to take over. I gave these people several chances but they just refused to improve their speed.
Lmao it’s going to be hard standing there, that’s how I was my first time. and for the big pans u don’t have to wash them, just spray them off. also it’s going to be hard your first few weeks too lol
@@vidfreak727 I quit my dish wash job cuz the staff I worked with always just threw dishes at me and never put stuff where I told them to place it at hope other dishwashers don’t get disrespected like that.
5 years ive worked in this restaurant only seen 1 female dishwaaher and the managers always encourage us to help her lol. She got promoted few weeks later to prep. They do get some privilege working in a all Male and the workload is mostly heavy phyiscal labor.
Thank you very much for this video, Raquel. I'm going to start as a dishwasher soon, and I'm watching videos like yours to have an idea. It was really helpful!
Key thing Ive even told company managers/executives "The dishwasher is the sprayer, the machine is a sanitizer". Everything (from dishes, prep containers, preparing utensils are scrubbed/sprayed cleaned before entering machine. I came with my own 3 letter procedure. In ANY business there are the letters "S.O.P" most management, executives and owners would call this "Standard Operating Procedure". As a dishwasher, my version of S.O.P is "Speed, Organize, Prioritize". Never met anyone in charge who didnt love that.
@@bangbangtangahwei scrub those with soap so it can remove all that grease/oil off them spray it then use soap and clean it then spray them it then run it through the mashing remember that’s it sanitizes the dishes not scrub off the food that is stuck on them
As a dishwasher I usually never have someone helping me, one on clean side, one one dirty side, not happening usually, usually most are stuck by them selfs when busy
I work at a place where we have two dishwasher that do clean and dirty sides when our schedule overlaps but we have 2 buildings and both have dishwashers so usually we’re working alone. But sometimes the person putting orders on the trays for the busters will help and grab plates as needed
I’m a dishwasher worker and I’m getting better at washing dishes fast and rinsed off and ran through the Dish tank and I keep pushing dishes through and I unload the dishes from the dish trays and I stacked them in a organized way
We got a Hobart dish tank too every day when I’m at work I’m happy to wash dishes and on my day off I think about dishes and I’m following my goal and it’s about to happen I be getting myself either a new house or a new SXS side by side
As a third a final comment. You said, you should have 1 person placing dirty items into the machine while a 2nd dishwasher is putting them away.. Your restaurant would need to be EXTRAORDINARILY BUSY to have 2 dishwashers for a shift. Yes sometimes a weekend or holiday shift. But even some if many places are only willing to pay/put 1 on shift if management knows there is NOT a major even or holiday that the restaurant will only be recieving normal business rather than a day, nignt, weekend, holiday, local event that would draw a LARGE crowd to your place.
The Ecolab (Soap, Eco-Dry and Eco-San) would NEVER be placed on the floor. It would be in shelf. And the machine controls several functions. BUT technically the hoses from the containers do not go thru the control system. There would be a sorta pulley system connected to an outside panel of the control box which regulates the amount of liquid traveling thru the hoses into the machine. I have 20 years experience with these machines, working in such major corporate restaurants such as Olive Garden, Friendlys, Logans Roadhouse, Red Robin and now Applebees. Plus Im not cleaning the machine in such away that even Eco-Lab hasnt figured out. In my way it would be 99 brand new.
Might not be a bad idea to try to get a technician job with Ecolab servicing their machines. You probably know this machine better than some of their own engineers by now, why not get paid better for it?
When I worked at Tony Roma's they had that and boy do they make you speed your ass off because you have to make sure the dishwasher is washer is running all of the time. With those you can definitely get the dishpit cleared in no time
I remember I used to banging the tray after dumping the food out and putting the stack of it where the ladies take it to the dishwasher that moves the trays into the dishwasher to wash it
One thing i wish they would taught me before i started my dish washer career is that most of the time you dont need to wash the dishes by hands because the dishwasher well do most of it for you
@@AlisonGuerrero_ so first I had the dishwasher position, very few people were nice but rest were very pushy & strict, dishwashing itself was a lot of overworking not also being paid enough. Eventually I quit to find a better fitting job environment for me.
It’s one of most important job that often goes unrecognized but known when u don’t do it or do it correct. Like many other jobs it’s always underpaid and under-appreciated.
My first day is today I'm going to be a dishwasher at a retirement home I'm just getting an idea and it's my 1st official full time job still kinda nervous but I'll try :)) ❤ edit: got fired from that shit in February on Superbowl Sunday 🤣🤣 but I hated it want to get out it was lonley asf i was the last person to leave every night 😩 found another job that I liked thankfully 😅
@cyd ne yeah it was too much dishes it was lonley asf couldn't really talk to anyone bruh, just only good morning sarah or by sarah see you tomorrow 🙄
I’ve always used one called ‘Eva’. We treated her as a person and called her by her name. That was at a camp (of 100+ ppl at a meal) but I’m sure if I get this job I’ll call it Eva for far too long lol
@@supreme5166 absolutely. Due to being physically disabled I am retired from dishwashing. If it wasn't running cold water it kept plugging up so I kept yelling you fucking piece of shit
Am a 50 yr old woman who has had agrophobia and hasn't left my house in yrs..I'm looking for work now cause I need to get out in society but also to work. Is it hard to be a dishwasher and be able to function without stress ? I'm kind, compassion and gentle but scared of human contact..should I try this as my first job in years ?
Prolly not I'm from colorado and the texas Roadhouse there was always packed and busy I worked at Ruby Tuesday didn't get as busy doing dish at Old Chicago now and I get slammed bad every night to the point the cooks gotta help me put things away after close
Not a huge fan of little Dishwasher. One Rack at a time seems IMO Setting yourself up for Slowing Down. When Restaurants tends to get busy in time. I prefer 2 Racks of Dishwashing at the same time. Than both sets of Dishes gets washed Quickly. And Efficiently. Had my Experience with Small Machine. Not Good.
@@thomaspease208 Hi Thomas. Fully agree with you. Busier Restaurants do need Double rack Machines. IMHO. Smaller Restaurants need Double rack machines as well. Sometimes they too are busy. Those little Dishwashers don,t the job when the Dining room is full of Peoples. And the Floor Staffs screaming at the Dishwashers for this & that items.
If you are lucky enough to have a manager who is supportive and treats you well then you see that raise otherwise the majority of the restaurant dishwashers are treated like second class citizens meaning you are treated like trash
Being a dishwasher is the worst job ever! You're not just doing the dishes, of which you're doing non-stop, but you do all the menial donkey work as well. Screw it!
Remind them to use gloves because their hands will hurt AF and bleed. I worked as dishwasher in germany for 2 months with 1 week pause and it was enough for me! those assholes left me work from 11 00 - 23 30 every day apart from monday and i thought I was going to die. My back hurted badly and when i didn't have things to wash they pushed me to clean vegetables and these shit. That kitchen was hygienic nightmare and believe me you wouldn't like to eat there. Since then I prefer much more eating at home :D.
Shoot... this like being a dishwasher in county. Does that count as a being a experience dishwasher??? Washing 800 trays in the morning and lunch. Sign me up✒. Better than working for free or 35 cents in the PEN.
Mem hasband waif ko job milsakta he abhi ham kichan klinig kst me job karta hai 10 yars aespiriyans kichan klinig im ol deep cleaning diswos mashin mem
***Don’t do it! Most restaurants have kitchens with toxic people; careless management; ONE dishwasher employee (you); and hard work will never be noticed!***
Eh I need a job and that's what's available in my area. I look at hard jobs as a opportunity to learn. Even with negativity can be a good challenge to overcome. Why let other people ruin your work day? Just learn to move on and keep working for a better future!
I worked in kitchens for ten years, started in the dish pit and was lucky enough to be trained in other positions eventually, but yeah for the most part dish guys get treated like dogs and paid very little. Definitely the most thankless job in a restaurant
I know the job And can work very quickly. My last job was in Malaysia..I am trying in another country for this job......If someone arranges a visa for me, I will be indebted to him...... please help me
JustRallax dude my stepfather knows plenty of people and I’ve had opportunities to be an electrician but I turned it down one of the most dangerous jobs out there becareful lol
Jordan RepGamez dude it’s one of the worst jobs to have, I’ve been a dishwasher a long time, & now my hands hurt everyday, they become numb asf. Shits not worth it
