Not On The Menu Zine

Your guide for dealing with restaurant customers who creep you out or sexually harass you.

An all-women team created the Color Code of Conduct system at Homeroom, a mac and cheese restaurant in Oakland, CA. In collaboration with Homeroom CEO Erin Wade, Catalina and Lindsey spearheaded the project from the server side of things.

 

And the system works. It turns out that very few people head straight to the red-zone. When you identify creepy behavior at the yellow and orange level and change the power dynamics immediately, it prevents code red situations from occurring. Over the last three years, Homeroom has served over a million mac and cheeses with only a handful of code reds on the restaurant floor during that time.

It means rethinking everything from workplace design to life stages to leadership style."

- SAM KANER

"Successful group decision-making requires a group to take advantage of the full range of experience and skills that reside in its membership. This means encouraging people to speak up. It means inviting difference, not fearing it. It means struggling to understand one another, especially in the face of the pressures and contradictions that typically drive group members to shut down.
