Nice using Oscar winner Anna Paquin in her role as Sookie Stackhouse on True Blood as your stand-in for a "hard-working" waitress, stupid.

Edit: stupid autocorrect changing Sookie to Skokie, making me look like I'm a fucking idiot on front of my friends.

I remembered this morning I worked with a guy who did the Vegas "chef" thing for a while, and his go to catchphrase was "that wouldn't fly in Vegas." Well apparently you didn't either, now drop a basket of fries MARK

I did it for years and would routinely make $35-$50 an hour. The hardest part was your compensation being directly tied to every interaction with a table. That’s it, well also having to work mostly nights and weekends.

It’s a great job if you can deal with the fact that people making way less than you will still feel sorry for you or look down on your job. Having a shitty day? Phone jt in and get your 15%. Want to kill it and walk with $500+ in a five hour shift? It’s doable.

If you’re in you’re 20s and have a pussy, you’re a fucking idiot not to be a server. It’s harder to do it as a guy in lower level places. In a nice, fine dining place? It’s almost better to be a guy. You don’t want to be the male server at Buffalo Wild Wings.

I don’t look down on Danny for being a bar back. I look down on him for refusing to acknowledge it.

Also, a relevant Ron and Fez clip:

i was a waiter for about 3 years. One of the most easiest jobs in the world. The only thing that could possibly make it “harder” is if you have a difficult boss.
If you have basic multitasking skills, anyone could do it.

No no, you see, customers are sometimes a bit mean to you or comment that you brought them the wrong order. Thats more pressure than being the president.

I’ve also never dealt with a rude boss or customer before. That’s unheard of unless you’ve worked in the service industry.

I've worked every shitty job on the planet, and waiting tables was by far the shittiest. Granted it was at bottom-of-the-barrel restaurants where I barely made more than minimum wage. People really do just needlessly treat waitstaff like absolute shit. It doesn't surprise me that most of them are alcoholics and drug addicts. It really fucks with your mind even after you go home with how mean some people are for no reason, and you just have to take it. I would never do it again under any circumstances.

Most places make you tip out at least 3.5% on up to 7-10%. Imagine serving a table of blacks, well, having them split the check 75 ways, including having a toddler on a separate check. Then they call the manager over to get shit taken off, accuse you of being racist for their well done steak being burnt and then everyone at the table stiffing you after they took over your section through the whole rush. Not only did you not make anything, you’re tipping out $5-$10 per $100 they as a group spent.

That’s not comparable to someone being mean to you at your basic customer service job.

You really become racist (or just a realist) when you work in the service industry - black people love to cause trouble, they eat everything then claim it was bad / not cooked right / etc and just bitch the whole time. No matter what - it’s not “well done enough” so they want it free. Or they play dumb and bring in a coupon that says 2 bucks off this certain dish and they order 10 and claim it’s 2 bucks off each 10 or don’t understand buy one get one doesn’t mean buy one get everything else free. After all that fighting and n person behavior their cards all come up declined.

I remember two lady n persons came into the bar / grill I was running in AC during the day with their 3 kids (it was a school day but n persons love to take their kids out of school to go to casinos during the week since it’s cheap / comped) and the two ladies weren’t paying attention to their shit kids running around and one got hurt because the little nog grabbed a knife from the table and cut himself. She of course blamed the restaurant and the casino and threatened to sue us all into the poor house because “we shouldn’t have silverware on the tables”

Of course she bitched about the food not being well done enough and kept asking for cups of hot water to wash all the table silverwear.

Thats awfully racist of you to notice that.

When I started waiting tables I had 0 racist inclinations in my body. I thought the older waiters were being dicks/exaggerating. I quickly had some terrible experiences. Some bad ones:

Towards the beginning of doing that job I had a seemingly normal, non ghetto lady come in with her daughter. After I dropped their change the mom was laughing. I didn't know what was up and assumed nothing to do with me. After they left looking at the check book and realized I had kept what was supposed to be the change and gave her back her bill total. And this gross cunt thought it was hilarious to steal money from a kid waiting tables.

They give you endless refills on fries if you order something that comes with them, so it was normal to have a couple bitches come in with a pile of stupid kids, order two burgers an ask for 100 fry fills. Also Freckled Lemonades had free refills, so they'd order two of those and dump them down their kids heads over and over. Tipped shitty every time and were total bitches.

Had a really ghetto family come in at the end of the night, I was the only waiter left and they were the only table. Hung out forever, ran me around, complained about their food demanded I sing happy birthday, I think left me less than a dollar.

The second Red Robin I worked at had almost none of those hardcore ghetto shitheads come there but I was tired of working there and provided complete chaos to the restaurant/managers/everyone around so was making less from mostly normal because I didn't give a shit anymore, was stoned and wasted all the time. I threw silverware away instead of rolling it up, I stole food supplies including whole packages of burgers and sliders/etc. I figured out how to open and tilt the top of a liquor bottle in the storage cage to dump into cups. Highlighted with pen the alien outline on the back of every dollar bill I put in the machine with little messages on it at the top. Threw out the main managers line check book when it was laying around and that completely fucked their whole system of keeping track of everything. As bad as customers could be, managers could make it worse. I was a great employee(up until then) and always showed up, never had a customer complaint, and never fucked up food orders. I should have been held up as a god there and they treated me like shit so I figured I'd fuck shit up til I left.
A few months after I was done working there, I had a morning where I ate a mystery pill and went to the nearby casino to drink straight whiskey and ran into a bartender who also loved Brian Jonestown Massacre, so he was pretty much pouring it straight down my head. A former employee called and asked if I could get shrooms so I asked my buddies daughter if she had some and her friend did, so her and I headed to that RR. Apparently on the way I was eating shrooms to that was supposed to go to this chick. I got there and came in the side door and started fucking shit up. It was busy, family's eating there...I walked up to a table and grabbed some dads glass and held it up and announced to the whole restaurant "anybody wanna see something funny?" and threw it at the ground. The one manager that did like me (til then) happened to be working there and told one of my friends that was waiting tables there still to get rid of me. I said "I ain't leaving til I get a coke!" so she made me a to go one and I took a sip and spat it in her face. Can't remember if that was before or after I licked her face Rick James style. Luckily they didn't have cameras there at the time and my buddies non drivers license having friend drove me out of there.
I still called a few days later(after recovering from the alcohol poisoning and puking all over my buddies floor for 12 hours) and talked to that manager to apologize. He wouldn't accept lol. My friend whose face I licked thought it was hilarious but everyone else thought I was a complete asshole, which I thought was nuts. I would have loved nothing more than something interesting to happen at work that I didn't cause but that shit was their lives lol.

Anywho I digress...one time I did get a great tip from some black folks. They probably wouldn't have been the stiffing for no reason/$1 type but I definitely did way better because I made them laugh all night. The main dude asked me something about "can you ask your manager if you can do such and such for a table of black folks?" I said "yeah, let me just go ask my WHITE manager" and they started dying and we were rolling the whole time. They tipped great but that's the only such experience I remember.

I’ll never forget working late nights in AC casinos because during the week you see n persons staying weekdays since it’s cheap / comped (especially during the slow winter months) and they would bring all their young kids with them. Of course the parents would be out getting shit faced on the casino floor and their little kids would wonder around the property at like 2-3 in the morning looking for their parents.

Weren't those the grossest bitches you ever seen "I gotta go brush my teeth". Just kill them Nathan! I love that he showed them on TV like that, lots of folks would have edited out the ghetto nonsense.
