#MY FEET HURT!!!#like my sister worked at a HUGE place one time and she had around 20 tables to a section #and she has complained loudly and at length that it's just not something that works #like a single waitress CANNOT take a section that big especially when it consists of tables ranging from 2 people #to 15 people like that's a ridiculous amount of customers relying on a single amount of staff #and that was in a place that was BUILT TO WORK LIKE THAT #MY PLACE IS VERY MUCH NOT BUILT TO WORK LIKE THAT #WE HAVE ONE WAITRESS TO A SECTION AND TWO ON THE BIGGER SECTION NORMALLY! NOT THIS!#IT WAS INSANE #i was soooo lucky we werent busy bc it meant i wasn't slammed off my feet but there was a constant flow of things to do #like i could JUST keep up with the tide of it if that makes sense #but i knew if i fucked up even minutely then id lose it and get overwhelmed #not a fun position to be in #ALSO I DROPPED A FUCKING PLATE #FOUR YEARS OF WAITRESSING AND I FINALLY DROPPED A PLATE IM GONNA KILL MYSELF #IT'S BC THIS BOY WAS TRYING TO BE NICE BY STACKING HIS PLATES BUT HE DID IT IN SUCH A TWATTY WAY #AND THEIR TABLE WAS LITERALLY THEE FARTHEST ONE FROM THE KITCHEN I NEVER STOOD A CHANCE TRULY #IT WAS MORTIFYING THE TABLE NEXT TO WHERE I DROPPED IT WERE SO ANNOYING ABOUT IT #like they were TOO nice about it the bloke asked me like 4 times if i was okay i was like YES IM FINE STOP TALKING ABOUT IT #then i dropped a wine glass like an hour later should've just quit right there and then #the lad i was on shift with went for his fag break at one point and i was joking with him like 'oh you slacking off?'#this boy goes 'im having a fag break for each thing you break' COME ON 😭😭😭#i am hateful today. i am very sleepy #hella slaves to capitalism
