the trials and joys of serving mankind

"a woman is like a tea bag-you never know how strong she is until she's in hot water." Words to live by, ladies, words to live by.

Hi there

well, as inspired by kristy, here's a blog for me. i am a server, yes a server. part of a huge industry, a multi-billion dollar industry, that still doesn't have a section when i clicked on the industry/occupation portion of this blog set up. why is that?? being a server means that after taking care of my son all day, i go and take care of strangers all night. it is a great job, and i love it, but people confuse me. what is with not reading a menu? what is with asking the same question every course, when we as servers are doing the same thing everytime? what is with thinking that the restaurant stays open until all hours just cause you're there? why do people lose their basic manners and social skills in a restaurant setting? i work in a very swank place now, but other places i've worked have just been a hotbed of people mad at the world and ready to take it out on the running around like chicken without head server of theirs. i don't understand it, but i'm here to talk about it.
