Life of a waitress By Jess
'
Many over look the waitress like it or not because they are too busy realise what truely goes on behind the scences of this job. This my friends is about the life of a waitress. The treatment and the under pay for such a hard job that most do not appreciate because they down the hard working group of people in this country.

Most people do not appreicate that we (waitresses or waiters) bring everything they ask with a smile on our faces even in reality we are not happy because of personal problems. We sometimes get so busy that we forget a small thing like a drink or maybe just a dressing. On big days like Fridays,Saturdays,and Sundays we get so busy because people croward our doors . They excpect so much and leave less. We still say thanks for coming and have a nice day. We go overboard to bring a smile to someone's face and maybe a little sunshine on a very cloudy day. Sometimes we don't even get tipped for that. Most of us or most I know have children and maybe we made mistakes in our lifes to have this job. We don't ask to be yelled out and at times insulted by rude people . We still smile and laugh about things even when if hurts. We still stand proud even if we are under payed for all tips and 1 dollar a hour we make. Nothing less is asked of us and when we go home we are so tired .. Yet we tend to our familes and live out our lives. I've never met such hard working people in my life that get treated so poorly. I know I've only been doing this job for a month and half ..Yet I understand the disrespect we get and the down fall of the under middle class group of workers. I believe that next time you see a waitress or waiter you should let them know you appreciate them. In this day and age no one respects the under class people that break their backs for a living. Some how I think that I appreciate having this job more because it is and has been a great learning expeirnce for me. I will walk away with a new scence of pride and know where I want to be here in my life. I hope that this makes you realize how little people look at the jobs in USA. Yes, I believe thats all I got to say about this. Yet there is so much more to be said and done. Sadly,I know I can't start a speech over net on stuff of this matter. I just hope you grow to earn respect for any under payed worker because they also build this country.

In best reguards,
Jess

ps I realize this is not a correct format to write in ,but I just had get it off my shoulder. I do apology for the errors.~Jess
