My first night as a cocktail waitress was good but DAYUM...

[libnnc]

I'm fucking exhausted!!! I had to teach all day and my feet were killing me!!

Mixed drinks from the well are $5, Martinis $6.

Don't forget to tip your waitstaff!! :P

Drunk people are funny :toast:

1. I used to do that occasionally

My brother is a bartender, I always frequented his bars and sometimes when they were shorthanded, I'd help out.

Depending on the place, it's NOT an easy job. And yes, drunk people are funny.

2. the money is decent but the hours suck and the cigarettes stink

did it many moons ago....actually was fired because they found out I was underage...weird how when I was younger I looked older and now that I am older everyone thinks I look younger...guess it's a good thing

6. the good thing about this joint is they have great ventilation

They keep the smoke pretty much under control.

7. good for that especially since all this info about the dangers of

second hand smoke have been made public...have fun and keep us posted :hug:

3. Are you a teacher by day?

It angers me to think that our teacher don't make enough money and have to take another job in order to get ahead......or maybe you're just doing for fun (?).

5. I'm working as a substitue teacher

I take jobs as they come up or when I want to work. Subbing here in NC is pretty much a free-lance enterprise. I get paid by the school system only once per month, with no benefits at all.

10. My daughter is in the same situation.

I hope both you and she find teaching positions for fall. Good luck.

4. I hope it works out well and pays great.

Waitstaff often deserve to get tipped more.

I have a low tolerance for drunk people, and I can't stand for long. That seems like a nightmare job to me. But if you can enjoy it then I guess it could be an awesome job. Good pay, free entertainment.

Please post some occasional stories of the odd and obsurd from work.

8. I always tip at least 20%.

And that's just the lowest I'll tip.

9. bless your heart.
