@MilwRep ... person at table wanted a drink before show start, 7:52 to be exact, but our waiter wasn't around. And they just seem continuously rushed

@MilwRep I get that this is a new set up for you in the stackner cabaret so this is an observation for you of something that needs to be worked on. The wait staff seem very overwhelmed & you are losing sales from it....
