The photographic image above is featured upon the official online photographic imagery for Achieve Hospitality, the Domestic Staff and Hospitality Recruitment agency located in Middlesbrough (Head Office), United Kingdom on Wednesday 2nd July 2025. The photograph is #2 from a set of #31 official Achieve Hospitality images, as currently viewed online via the official website since February 2022.
The analysis of the photographic image highlights extremely poor hospitality etiquette and service standards, showcasing both complacency and compromise?
Matthew Walton the Divisional Manager for Private Household Staff at Achieve Hospitality, is informed directly by telephone on Friday 4th July 2025, at 14:00PM.
*The same photographic image is also featured upon the official Pro Staff Select website, the Specialist Hospitality Recruitment Services agency located in Cape Town, South Africa.
Website: https://www.psselect.co.za/about/ since November 2021.
The Management Team at Pro Staff Select, Tania and Gavin Smith are informed directly by email on Tuesday 30th September 2025, at 18:59PM.
Observations, include:
The individual is wearing Fine White Gloves within a Formal setting, but is Not wearing a Formal Long-Sleeved white shirt to compliment the uniform's attire?
*WHY is the individual wearing formal white gloves, but conversely, is wearing a Short-Sleeved and Wrinkled shirt?
The short-sleeved shirt is clearly Not Ironed?, and requires Valet Pressing?
Upon instantaneous viewing, the shirt resembles a Chef's Whites work uniform?, and is certainly Not the correct uniform etiquette required for Front of House guest services?
The formal table presentation highlights there is No Teaspoon to compliment the fine china Cup and Saucer setting? Likewise, this is observed further when the photograph is Enhanced.
Why is the Gloved Left Hand Holding the cup and saucer Upon The Table?
