Treat Our Servers Cape May has been overrun by excited and eager visitors this summer. For the most part, that’s great for business... but it’s been a rough time for restaurant staff. Many of them are working outdoors in baking-hot temps, dealing with sometimes demanding customers. We think it’s time to hand out some well-deserved treats! Exit Zero Filling Station will deliver a meal and drinks for two to a deserving cause. We are also calling on our friends in local businesses to donate gift cards, which we will showcase in our posts. Please send us your nominations for overworked cooks, dishwashers and servers to info@exitzero.com, with TREAT OUR SERVERS in the subject line. Restricted to the Cape Mays and Villas. Last week, Exit Zero delivered a gift card from our friends at Gusto Brewing Company to Marijana, a manager and server at the Mad Batter as part of our Treat Our Servers program. We asked the community for nominations and Zack Pashley, owner of Gusto, pointed us toward Marijana. “We work closely with the Batter, so we have had so many opportunities to witness her extremely hard (and frequent) work in real time,” he says. “Whether we’re there for business or pleasure, she always seems to be there doin’ her thing like a boss.” Enjoy your gift card Marijana and keep being a boss!
