In the restaurant industry, food runners work with the kitchen staff and the serves to ensure that the client gets their food correctly and in good time.
They are blamed for everything that gose wrong with the serves, in the kitchen and in life. A food runner just has to keep running food and apologize for something they did not do in order to keep the flow going.
Basically: Run, run, run!!! Screaming, yelling, insulting & no one thanks you for your hard work.
