Welcome to my newest and most entertaining blog yet! Please, follow along as I share the strange, funny, cute, and frustrating happenings in my life as a server.
Seriously, who ever thinks that life in a restaurant could be so dramatically hilarious? From crying old men to flirty little toddlers...and, yes, I did write that the way I wanted to...the unexpected happens all the time.
Oh, also...have you-as someone who has ever eaten in a restaurant- ever considered what is being said about you, the customer, among the entire staff and even to other customers? Hehe, well, I'm not going to go into detail about that, but, aren't you going to be more self-conscious the next time you go out to eat. I mean, seriously, if I have to wear dress pants to serve you, why can't you have the decency to wear something other than your over-sized(or even worse, your too tight::shudders::) flannel sleep pants?
Or,(and this one is for the guys) have you ever considered that a waitress is just being nice to you to get your money...not your phone number? We're not all damsels in distress waiting for a knight to save us from our doomed lives as servants and in the process sweep us off our feet. So leave me as big of a tip as you want, but I'm not going to call you...even if you do say I "have a nice personality and pretty smile."
Okay, so not everything is as ridiculous as all of that. There are the sweet old people who just want someone to listen, and I'm glad to do that! There are the middle-aged people who take you in as their adopted child. There are those kind people who you bond with so quickly that they only come to the restaurant when they know you're working. And there are jerks...but that's life. So, please, follow me and I promise to tell the tales of being a server in today's restaurant business where-contrary to popular belief-the customer isn't always right!
