A few months ago, I realised my dream and opened my own restaurant.
My goal was to become the best fish restaurant in town and provide good portions of top quality fish meals for a decent prices. It's just me, my best driend and a waitress.
We had a good start but we still don't have as many customers as we'd like to.
I invited a few cooks from other restaurants to have some criticism. They didn't say anything bad about my cooking.
However, 2 of them suggested to replace my waitress. They said she's doing a good job, but isn't cheerful enough, and that it's a big part of getting customers back.
About the waitress: To be short, she's a real dyke. No make up, short hair (but not in a feminine way), covered in tattoos, often wearing camos, she's not cheerful nor flirty with customers... However her work is perfect imo, she doesn't care about taking long shifts, she helps with everything, she takes care of everything that isn't cooking...
Should I fire her?
First off, congratulations for taking the first step. It takes some balls because something like 90% of start ups fail.
Fire the waitress because she is detrimental to potential customers coming back. Follow the advice of those who are experienced with the industry. Find somewhere cheap to advertise. Best luck dude.

I really feel bad for firing someone who always does her best and never causes us any problem...

Unfortunately, in business you have to make tough calls sometimes.

just give her another role and hire some twit to work out front. Good employees as you describe are damn hard to find.

In capitalism there is no room for compassion. Pretend this is the Wolf of Wallstreet. You're the little faggot who is cleaning the fish bowl right now, ok? Your sole mission is to acquire as much money as possible. Money doesn't have a vagina. It doesn't have feelings. It's heartless, it's soulless. Money, money, money. Start jerking off with a $100 bill.

If anything you should be pissed that she is standing in the way of your dreams/success. Throw her a bone and tell (read: discipline) her about your concerns, she doesn't improve fire her. Make sure to document the problem and action taken so you can fire her ASAP if she doesn't improve.
