    Drop your spoon lately? LOL

    Last week, we took some friends out to a new restaurant, and noticed that
    the waiter who took our order carried a spoon in his shirt pocket. It
    seemed a little strange. When the busboy brought our water and utensils, I
    noticed he also had a spoon in his shirt pocket. Then I looked around saw
    that all the staff had spoons in their pockets.



    When the waiter came back to serve our soup I asked, "Why the spoon?"



    "Well, "he explained, "the restaurant's owners hired Andersen Consulting
    to revamp all our processes. After several months of analysis, they
    concluded that the spoon was the most frequently dropped utensil. It
    represents a drop frequency of approximately 3 spoons per table per hour.
    If our personnel are better prepared, we can reduce the number of trips
    back to the kitchen and save 15 man-hours per shift."



    As luck would have it, I dropped my spoon and he was able to replace it
    with his spare. "I'll get another spoon next time I go to the kitchen
    instead of making an extra trip to get it right now."



    I was impressed. I also noticed that there was a string hanging out of the
    waiter's fly. Looking around, I noticed that all the waiters had the same
    string hanging from their flies. So before he walked off, I asked the
    waiter, "Excuse me, but can you tell me why you have that string right
    there?"



    "Oh, certainly!" Then he lowered his voice. "Not everyone is so observant.
    That consulting firm I mentioned also found out that we can save time in
    the restroom. By tying this string to the tip of you know what, we can
    pull it out without touching it and eliminate the need to wash our hands,
    shortening the time spent in the restroom by 76.39 percent.



    I asked "After you get it out, how do you put it back?"



    "Well," he whispered, "I don't know about the others, but I use the spoon."
    Sometimes, the good you do doesn't do you any good.
