So I haven't posted in a few weeks because although some may say these are the best years of my life, I beg to differ! I have been stressed to the absolute maximum and have had no time to do this blog let alone the things that have to be done. I have spent at least 5 hours on homework already this week and this is the first week of classes and haven't learned anything that I recall. I have been in my Daddy's office more than I have EVER been .. Lucky him, and I have already dropped and added math classes to avoid failing anything haha. Put in my two weeks for the first time ever and started a new job, trying to figure out my finances. Now saying all of this I hope you all understand why I have been slack on my blog. My life is a little busy to say the least. I love you all and I apologize if I do not answer and call or text you back in a timely manner but I will do my best.
Sincerely,
I college student with to many things on her plate

Hateful Waitress.....enough said!
Ahhhhh!!! is the best word I have to describe the feelings I have about being a waitress.
I will give you all a little advice.
-TIP TWENTY PERCENT! this is not 1940 bills are way more expensive and 10% doesn't cut it.
-A verbal tip does NOT count. It doesn't matter how many times you say "Your service was great!" if I see you left me 10% I will automatically hate you.
-Think before you ask a dumb question.Really, really think.
-If it is not in the menu we DON'T have it! (and no we can NOT make it for you just because that is what you want, Go to Burger King and have it your way!
-If your children make a mess at least attempt to clean it up.
-"What's a Cheddar Wedge?" What do you think it is!? let's work this out.... Cheddar cheese and literally a Wedge of it!
-If you don't need change tell them so they don't waist their time counting out change for you to just say, "keep the change."
-Don't say Red Wine, Say exactly the kind you want, I'm sure there is more than one kind of Red wine in that restaurant.
-If half of your party goes to the bathroom right when you walk in they will probably not come talk to you until everyone is there.
-If you seat yourself and there is clearly a sign that says, "Please WAIT to be Seated" you won't get menus and no one will help you.
-If you are almost out of drink I am more than likely on my way to get you more so don't wave your glass at me!(this goes for slurping the last ounce of your drink to get my attention as well)
-If you wave at me for my attention I will just wave back and walk away.
-If you don't want mayo on your sandwich you need to answer no mayo when I ask you, " Do you want the lettuce, tomato, onion, and mayo?"
-Do not leave your ice-cream cups from Kilwins on the table for me to clean up.
-If the door is locked DO NOT LEAN YOUR FACE ON THE GLASS! and if it is locked no matter how hard you throw yourself into it, it will NOT open.
-If someone working is standing outside taking names on a "WAITlist" YOU ARE TO WAIT!!!!! not go inside because you feel like she is lying to you.
-If you walk in and the whole restaurant is empty except one dirty table, DON'T SIT AT THE DIRTY ONE, pick another!
-If they ask you "Do we need a few minutes?" and you're the one who isn't sure, SPEAK UP that means I need to come back in a minute.
-Don't fight over the check while I am standing there. SOMEONE JUST PAY THE THING!
-Don't go out to dinner with your family to tell them something dramatic that will make the whole table really awkward for your server.
-If you are standing somewhere that the server needs to ask you 10 times to move, MOVE! because they will end up pushing you and not saying a word.
-Soup and Half a sandwich..... Ok, what soup would you like?French onion. and what sandwich? Grill Cheese. HAVE YOU EVER MADE HALF A GRILL CHEESE AT HOME? NO, guess what neither do we!
-and last but not least, IF YOU ARE RUDE TO ME, I WILL BE RUDE TO YOU!
Please take these tips next time you go out.
Thank You,
Your Neighborhood Waitress
