Absolutely everyone is in your way, and the bartender can’t get you the truckers’ third round of Bud Lights because she’s busy taking an order. There are no straws in the server station. You can’t put any orders in because the computers are full of other servers. And the hostess just sat you a group of nine teenage girls that have never been out to eat without their parents, “So, what do you have here?” …we have menus.īehind the scenes, the kitchen loads your nachos full of jalapeños. You have an elderly couple who wants to split a half a sandwich with a side of soup that your kitchen doesn’t make. You have a couple on a date who wants nachos as an appetizer with no sauce, no jalapeños, and everything else on the side. You have a table of six truckers that want you to explain the entire beer list so they can all order Bud Light. You have a family of four whose anxiety-ridden mother wants you to know that “We’ve never been here before!” meaning she wants you to hold her hand through all ordering procedures. Table after table is walking in and that manageable six table section is suddenly your worst nightmare because not only is your section filling up, but you’re also getting tables on the patio. The restaurant is staffed for a weekday dinner and you get absolutely slammed. There is a distinct difference between the average server who is just doing their job and the rockstar server who is killing it. They deal with impressively high levels of stupidity on a daily basis, and they still manage a killer fake smile at every table. They experience the best and the worst of humans – sometimes in the same thirty minutes. But yes, I will bring you a coke and a water.Īfter working as a server myself, servers are some of my favorite people on earth. You’re going to suck down the coke, I’m going to bring you two more cokes then I’m going to pour the full water in the dump sink after you leave. Obviously, you can have a coke and a water. I literally get paid to bring you what you want.
