Waiters: Inbound Sales / Customer success
Talk to customers all day, eager to satisfy their every craving
Chefs: Engineers
Perfectionists suffering the idiosyncrasies of customers via waiters
Table cleaners: Facilities staff
Clean up everyones shit, but get no love
Restaurant manager: Product Manager
Keeping this bunch together, god knows how
Guy on the street shouting & attracting customers: Outbound Sales
Make some noise, get peoples attention, get them in
Side-note: I’m sure I can map every function in a product team to something in a restaurant. Further mappings are left as an exercise to the reader.
