Serious question...did they train you on how to take and handle more than one order at a time? The waiting lines are ridiculous due to poor service at the majority of the stands, even from DNC employees over volunteers.

I actually don't feel the lines are too slow at all, given the number of people. I've found service there to be quite good.

I've consistently had pretty below average experiences, and a big part of it is just the flow of how orders are taken, paid for and filled being very inefficient. I'm pretty understanding and easy-going and I've gotten pretty frustrated. I go to ~40 games/year, so I have a lot of trips to the stand to base my opinion on. I'm sure like anything it's luck, and we remember the bad experiences.

Yeah the bottleneck is at the register, for sure.

Yeah....I'm not surprised. Honestly, I'd expect the volunteers are probably better than a lot of our employees. They don't exactly offer much incentive for people to actually do a great job, nor are our training methods particularly good

Frankly, I'd rather sit next to someone who is smoking a bad cigar than sit next to someone who is chewing and spitting. It's beyond disgusting.

I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem if people didn't retch the crap into a urinal when they were done.

Well, since I don't visit urinals, I wouldn't know about that. But did have the 'pleasure' once of sitting next to someone spitting into a cup, and not always managing well with that.

I am curious. How do you get through a baseball game? 80% of the players are chewing and 100% of them are spitting.

I'm not sitting in the dugout right next to any players, having to see and hear them spit.
