Waitress work in high school. Yep. Mine was in the restaurant in the local bowling alley. The restaurant manager got fresh and I was not "nice" so I didn't get many hours there. This is a good interview.

That flashed me back to my waitressing days as a teen. Especially the CRASH part :-)

You have a clever and unique way of getting your message across. I like it :) I'll be following along to hear more. :)

And now you are responsible for the lives of two young children.... Hmmm. Obviously past deli disasters cannot be looked at as indicators of future abilities. ;)

p.s. Will I really be back to commenting soon??? My internet is supposed to be up and running at home tonight by midnight!!! I'll be up waiting....

2009-09-10T20:38:25.267-05:00

Hysterical! Took me back to my first job where I also made $3.50/hr. (We must be around the same age.) It was at one of the first "salad by the pound" joints (I think it was called "Salad by the Pound) and I can still smell the kitchen disinfectant. To this day the combo of lettuce and Lysol make me gag.

Love it! I especially like the "Saturday. Not this Saturday...." part. Such reliability! You're hired!

2009-09-10T06:02:50.797-05:00

You're not showing up in my reader so I'll have to track you down on my own.

Fan napkins and crying....you just described my family's Thanksgiving dinner.

You would have been my favorite busboy. Very fun...

2009-09-08T20:48:37.151-05:00

That's hilarious. I've cried many times at work. Not recently, thanks to Lexapro and not giving a crap anymore.
I was fired from my only waitressing job because I gave a customer their spaghetti "to go" in a paper bag. Well, they had sent it back 3 times!

So, did you ever buy those bubble gum flavored lip glosses? I miss them.

I used to tip my busboy very well...

Quickly cleared tables = more customers = more tips = more tips for busboy = quickly cleared tables

How clever you are, interviewing yourself! Are you always this funny?

That is a killer job... I can't believe they didn't take your nonchalant wealth back to replace all the broken dishes.

I, too, was a busboy. I knew I liked you. Pearl

I too was a dishwasher but at a prestigious country club. Well until I dropped the wedding cake of one of the daughter's of a board member. Ahhh good times.

2009-09-08T10:21:07.515-05:00

The crying part is so relatable. I cried once when I waitressed at Red Lobster because a customer noted that it took 25 minutes to get his lunch during our "20 minutes or it is free" promotion. He was so nice and good natured, and I burst into tears. He did not pursue the free lunch after that.

2009-09-07T22:23:49.973-05:00

I love cash registers too. I was a 15 year old waitress in a diner. I wore black oxford shoes and an apron. My friends would stop in just to laugh at that outfit I was forced to wear. Foxay!

2009-09-07T22:02:34.597-05:00

I love cash registers. That's priceless. I hostessed at a dive in our town all through high school. All you could eat fish on Wednesdays. Quality clientele.

Hysterical. As always.
