Top 10 Funny Awards for Restaurant Staff

1. The Eighty Six Award

For the waitstaff member who always seems to be out of something. Is there a server in your team who always seems to be 86-ing menu items? This award is for them, recognizing their unique talent for running out of specials just when they're needed most.

2. The Weed Whacker Award

For the staff member who can handle any situation. Got a team member who can navigate the busiest shifts with ease? This award goes to the one who can "whack" through the "weeds" of a busy restaurant without breaking a sweat.

3. Jack and the Beanstalk Award

For the best at upselling. This one's for the server who could sell snow to a snowman. They have a knack for upselling, turning a simple order into a feast fit for a king.

4. The Mix-Up Maestro Award

For the one who always gets orders creatively wrong. Mixing up orders can be an art. This award is for that one person who consistently surprises guests with their creative interpretations of orders.

5. The Spinning Plates Award

For the multitasking magician. This award is for the staff member who can handle multiple tasks at once – taking orders, serving food, and maybe even doing a bit of magic on the side – all without dropping a single plate.

6. The Daily Special Forget-Me-Not Award

For the one who can never remember the specials. Is there someone who always draws a blank when asked about the daily specials? This award is a humorous nod to their selective memory.

7. The Clean Sweep Award

For the most efficient busser. This goes to the busboy or busgirl who keeps tables cleaner than a whistle. They're the unsung heroes who ensure a fresh start for every guest.

8. The Fire Extinguisher Award

For the chef who's a master of disaster control. Every kitchen has that one chef who can handle any culinary catastrophe with grace. This award is for them, the calm in the culinary storm.

9. The Cash Register Chime Award

For the cashier who makes every customer smile. This is for the cashier who greets every customer with a smile and a joke, making the chime of the cash register a sound of joy.

10. The Order Overachiever Award

For the food runner who goes the extra mile. This award is for the food runner who does more than just deliver food. They ensure every dish is perfect and every guest is happy, going above and beyond with every step.

Recognizing your staff's hard work and unique personalities is a fantastic way to end the year on a high note. For more creative and humorous award ideas, be sure to visit Fun Awards.

Funny Certificates for Employees

When it comes to Funny Employee Awards, there is one name you can trust – Larry Weaver. This prolific author and professional stand-up comedian released the first edition of Funny Employee Awards in 2008. He had no idea he was starting a worldwide phenomenon.

From 101 Funny Employee Awards by Larry Weaver

Weaver doesn’t claim that he came up with the concept, only that he introduced it to the masses through his original site, FunnyEmployeeAwards.com 

He began incorporating the awards into his stand-up comedy performances for company events as early as 2006. 

He later moved operations to FunAwards.com – both to expand into non work-related awards, and because the domain was shorter and easier to remember.

There’s no denying that Weaver is an expert at using humor in the workplace. He has the unique experience as both a professional touring stand-up comedian, and as company employee.

Weaver has a B.S. in Business Administration from the University of North Carolina and worked for 10 years as a consultant. He’s seen his share of interesting employees and unusual workplace situations.

Some of the 101 employee awards honor those employees who:

• can fix anything
• are never around
• love Wednesdays
• don’t explain things well
• are ready to go when needed
• always puts foot in mouth
• will eat anything left out
• are eager to quit working
• always tells the truth
• start the week in a bad mood

Funny Employee Awards has been used across the Globe. The original book is even registered at the U.S. Copyright Office.

Weaver is fanatical about customer satisfaction. Every purchase comes with his cell phone number. He personally handles all support calls. And he offers a 30-day, money-back guarantee.

Weaver sells the employee awards directly to consumers through his site FunAwards.com

If you want to purchase 101 Funny Employee Awards, look for 3 things: the author’s name “Larry Weaver”, his photo on the cover, and “funawards.com” in the URL.

Funny Employee Awards vs. Funny Office Awards

If you're trying to decide between "101 Funny Employee Awards" and "101 Funny Office Awards", you're in the right place. This is comedian Larry Weaver and I created them both.

The short answer is this: if you work in an office, get "101 Funny Office Awards". Otherwise, get "101 Funny Employee Awards."

 

Now the long answer.

The first collection of funny awards I released was way back in 2007. The title back then was "Funny Employee Awards: Your Complete Guide to Organizing a Humorous, Entertaining, and Rewarding Recognition Ceremony." This original collection had a decidedly office-oriented slant. It's safe to say that all of the awards were inspired from my days toiling away in an office environment.

Then I took the show on the road.

Shortly after releasing the first collection of awards, I created a live comedy show based on the book. I would (and still do) travel around the country hosting a funny award show for companies and organizations.

A lot of the organizations were decidedly blue-collar. I'm talking warehouses, distribution centers, firefighters, EMS workers, food service, catering, truckers, hairdressers... the list goes on. For most of these organizations, the majority of employees simply didn't work in an office.

Based on demand, I released a collection of "Funny Teacher Awards." But I knew I had to do more.

A few years back I created a more generic collection called "Funny Awards Certificates". These were meant to be a catch-all collection for friends, family, teammates and coworkers. That still didn't quite solve the problem, so I bundled that collection with the employee awards to create a "Funny Office Awards" bundle.

But all of that was just a delay to the inevitable. I had to break out office awards from employee awards.

Finally, in the Summer of 2013, I sent my calls to voicemail, shut down Outlook and started writing new awards. I didn't know at the time that I would end up rewriting ALL of my collections - ending up with four collections of 101 awards (that's 404 funny awards for you non-math majors).

Today, the newest collection of "101 Funny Office Awards" are for office workers and the totally revamped collection of "101 Funny Employee Awards" have a more generic slant that can apply to any workers in any job.

If you can get them both, do that. A lot of hard work went into them and you won't be disappointed!

Funny Awards for Work Party

Funny Awards for Work are are a great way to liven up an office party, company meeting, or just the daily routine. But how do you incorporate funny workplace awards while ensuring everyone has a good time?

Funny work awards can be a huge hit at your next event!

CIO magazine outlines the benefits of workplace humor in their article, Humor Does a World of Good in the Workplace. They suggest that humor needs to come from the top down.


"Managers need to set the tone for levity. The first place to start is by looking in the mirror."

As someone who has hosted dozens of workplace awards ceremonies across the U.S., I couldn't' agree more. I always encourage the organizations to kick off the funny work certificates presentation with someone in a managerial role. It lets workers know that it's OK to laugh at the awards.

The best funny workplace awards are the ones that hit closest to home. The article points out, "Whether it’s the suck-up employee, the bottleneck-causing boss or the showman-style CEO, every workplace has its foibles."

My suggestion for creating funny award categories for work is to start with the biggest "characters" in your workplace. Pick out the co-workers who will relish the spotlight. Make a list of what are they known for. Examples include always being late, eating other people's food, and extending meetings. Use these characteristics to create your list of funny work award ideas.

The article does caution that some topics should be off limits. "Of course, some things should not be made light of in the workplace—a person’s faith, ethnicity or sexual preference. Jokes on these issues may provoke hurt or cause harm. When in doubt, keep your mouth shut."

According to the website recognition.org...
Employee Appreciation Day first arrived on calendars in 1995.  A Recognition Professionals International’s founding Board member, together with his publishing company, Workman Publishing, created Employee Appreciation Day as a way of focusing the attention of all employers, in all industries on employee recognition.

We're all about fun here at FunAwards.com, but showing appreciation to your employees is serious business. Companies should try harder than ever to retain and reward their best employees.

If you need National Employee Appreciation Day ideas, gift certificates are a good place to start. Most any drug store or supermarket will sell a wide range of gift certificates in any price range. Look for gift certificates with wide appeal. While Starbucks may not be everyone's cup of tea (or coffee), almost anyone can enjoy a popular restaurant or bookstore.

Low-Cost Employee Recognition Ideas

The Chicago Tribune praised the benefits of employee recognition ideas like the funny awards found on this site in their article, "Improving employee morale with incentives a challenge in tough economic times".

The article explains that recognition and prizes - no matter how small - tend to pay off when they reflect a positive work environment.

"When budgets become tighter, you have to become more creative and we have creative people," said Jennifer Zuri, a marketing communications manager at Aquascape. Zuri resurrected a dormant committee in charge of boosting employee morale.

Zuri has planned no-cost employee recognition programs like a "wallyball" tournament and office Olympics. Prizes range from bobbleheads bearing the likeness of the company's founder, to certificates she printed and framed.

"It can be very shallow stuff..." said Tom McMullen, an expert in incentives at management consulting firm Hay Group. But even hanging a picture of an employee of the month can be meaningful if it contributes to a healthy workplace. "If that picture on the wall is part of a bigger thing -- a work climate -- it's very powerful," McMullen said.

As we've said on this blog before, employee recognition doesn't have to break the bank. If you have a positive work environment, even the smallest of employee recognition can pay big dividends.

Employee Recognition that Doesn't Break the Bank

Wells Fargo & Co. made news this week by blaming the media for having to cancel all "major employee-recognition events."

The bank that took $25 billion in federal bailout money ranfull-page ads in Sunday's New York Times and Washington Post that read "one-sided stories lead you to believe every employee recognition event is a junket, a boondoggle, a waste or that it's for highly-paid executives. Nonsense!"

The bank's sentiment is partially understandable.

One one hand, companies that receive government bailout money should both expect and receive more public scrutiny. Public outrage over exorbitant executive salaries and private Jimmy Buffett concerts are understandable.

On the other hand, Wells Fargo is correct in defending the practice of employee recognition. In fact, such recognition is vital to any company that expects to recover in this economy.

But perhaps Wells Fargo executives have lost sight of what employee recognition really means. It can be as simple as a pat on the back or a "job well done". Not only does it not have to break the bank, the best employee recognition can be low-cost or completely free.

How to Choose Employee Award Winners

Your office party is coming up and you've settled on an Employee Awards Show theme. You've even decided to include some funny awards to make sure the presentation isn't a drag. So how do you decide who’s going to get an award?

• First, put together a selection committee of 2-3 people who know most everyone in the office. The key is not to do this alone. You need a group to suss out the recipients’ vulnerabilities and personalities. Something you might consider hilarious, they might consider offensive.
• When choosing your award recipients, make sure you have the biggest characters in the office covered. The awards ceremony will only be as good as the winners, and an event filled with boring acceptance speeches won’t be much fun for anyone.
• Only give the funny awards to those with a sense of humor who don’t have any problem poking fun at themselves. You don’t want to turn into Michael Scott from The Office.
• It works well to make of list of those you’d like to give awards to, then find one that’s suitable from the list of options.

If you’re worried at all that your award may embarrass the winner, you can always tip that person off ahead of time. It won’t ruin the presentation. Remember, the idea is to create an entertaining presentation for the entire audience – not just to surprise one person.

Telling the winner ahead of time will allow that person to voice any objections, and will give them time to prepare a funny speech if they choose to do so. Everyone else will still be surprised and entertained when the award winner is announced, and you won’t have to worry about any potential awkward moments!

When picking awards, remember that the intent here is to have fun — not to embarrass.

Unique Employee Awards

The Employee Awards Ceremony is a classic office party theme. Here are a few tips to make sure you have an unforgettable evening.

Before the event, line up an emcee to keep the show flowing. If your budget allows, hire a professional comedian to host the awards ceremony. Have the comedian perform a short stand-up set before handing out the Awards. It will be just like having your own Oscar party!

If you don’t want to hire a professional comedian, ask someone who’s personable from the office to handle the duties. Or ask each department head to give out the awards within his or her department.

Awards Show Presentation Tips

• Keep everything, from the opening remarks to the acceptance speeches, short. The event should move along at a crisp pace.
• A customized PowerPoint presentation with the winners’ photos makes a big impact.
• Hook your laptop into the sound system and play music as people come up to accept the awards.
• Get a photographer to take pictures of all the winners as they accept their awards. Everyone loves pictures of themselves!
• Make sure your ceremony isn’t dry and boring by handing out creative and funny awards.

It's easy to make your awards ceremony as grand or as modest as you like. It doesn’t matter. It’s all about getting together and having a good time.

Use End of the Year Awards Year-Round

Most people who buy funny awards do so for end-of-the-year celebrations. But humor in the workplace should be used year-round, not just in December. Here's an excellent case study of using our funny recognition awards year-round sent in by Cindy Collver:

Having a fairly new sales department (we got rid of the old "barnacles" that were clogging us up), I needed something to use as an on-going way of keeping my reps motivated and laughing (because laughter is the best motivator and medicine).
Contrary to how probably many companies use the Funny Employee Awards (once a year…most likely around Christmas – when after a few cocktails everything’s funny anyway), I’m choosing to use these awards when the opportunity presents itself in the here and now….

• Could be in a sales meeting;
• Could be an impromptu "YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE!" moment;
• Could be taped to the ceiling – just to see how long it takes them to notice;
• Could be just because it’s 4:34 p.m. on Wednesday.

And with 101 options to choose from, it’s a better deal than the House of Flavors 50 choices of ice cream.
