I am a hot humid and hazy person so no problem I am already missing being able to wander around with summer clothes, such a pain when it gets cold to have to wear so much clothing to stay warm.

Coworkers that complain that customers treat them poorly but constantly has a *mood* and is inhospitable and unfriendly.
Gee, wonder why that it.

People I’m dining with that treat waiters like shite.

Gifts that are wrapped, taped, double boxed, stuffed, bagged, and secured with a wire ribbon. No, it's not particularly funny when it takes five minutes and a lot of knife work to open my gift. Next year I'm hoping Santa gives you an actual sense of humor.

That was one thing I looked at when I was dating my then boyfriend, now husband (of going on 35 years). If he had been rude to the wait staff, I wouldn't have kept up the relationship.

You learn a LOT about a person when you see how they treat people in any kind of service postition.

Nothing more embarrassing than apologizing for someone else.

Same, even when they're not at their best, we still treat them well. Never know what kind of day they're having. It's really great when we get a good one though! I can't stand it when people treat servers like they're invisible.

I think it would be a good thing if everyone had to spend time working in a service job. Not just a day - a month at least. Maybe then there would be more understanding of working conditions, salary, and dealing with the variety of customers.

I was never a waitress, but I did work in retail, behind the counter at a store in the mall. I had cusomters I loved to see come in, and bent a few rules to accomdate their needs. And others I did not like to see come in at all.

Especially one VERY rich guy. Mister, I don't care what business you own/run/manage. You do NOT own/run/manage ME!
