As Heard In Evanston

Me: ... All I'm saying is that I used to be a waitress, too, so I'm really pretty patient. But, you should provide water as soon as possible and acknowledge your customers within 10 minutes. Even if it's just to say, 'I'm slammed, but I'll be right with you.'

Rock Star: Let's get back to what we were just talking about. Smoking things and my birthday.

Jeez, 5 minutes at most. And I say that as a former waitress too.

Absolutely - just a hi and water and a menu, at least.

I was the worst waitress evah. Really really terrible.

However, I worked at a pizza delight, so the incentive really wasn't there...baseball teams and pitchers of beer with a loonie tip? No thanks.

Hey! Let's hang out soon! :) My old phone died, so I don't have your phone number :( Give me a call sometime or shoot me an e-mail.

Congrats on getting married!

Haha, as a cook, I have the utmost respect for my servers. Unfortunately, my coworker does not. I had to remind her that the servers type in food mods because the customer asked for it, not to ruin her life.
