11 Questions Servers Are Tired Of Hearing

"Can you please ask the chef to change my order to..." No. I can't. He already hates me. If I go back there and talk to him during this dinner rush he is going to poison my food when I eat my employee meal and I really don't feel like dying today.

"Do guys have vegetarian options? I don't eat meat." Yes we do! Vegetarian options are listed in the "Vegetarian" section of the menu. The menu that I put on your table. The one that you haven't opened yet.

"Are you positive you can't..." Yes ma'am I am positive that I can not substitute the pecans on your salad for grilled salmon.

"Can you split this check 15 ways?" Sure! Nothing would make me happier than splitting this $27 check between you and your entire sorority.

"Can we get our food rushed out? We are in a hurry." Yes of course let me go take your ticket and put it in front of the other eight tickets waiting to be made so you can get your dinner before the clock strikes 12:00 and you turn into a pumpkin.

"Can I please speak to your manager?" Sure. Even though I just answered your question I will go bother my manager just so she can come tell you herself that your poodle is not allowed to sit in a highchair.

"Can I have 10 sides of ranch?" Would you care for a straw or a spoon with that?"

"Is there any way to turn off the air conditioning? It is very cold over here." Yeah let me shut down the entire restaurant's A/C and transform this place into the Sahara Desert because you forgot to bring a jacket.

"Can the bartender make my shot extra strong?" Uh. What? You mean you want a double shot? I am thoroughly confused and am now questioning my entire existence.

"May I have a water with 6 lemon wedges?" I will gladly bring you a water, a lemon and a knife but that's all I am capable of right now.

"I know it's late but can I do the lunch special?" The lunch special? At 9:00 PM? The one that we do for lunch? At lunch time? When the sun is still out? Yeah probably not.

Now that Halloween is over, it's time to focus on the Holiday Season. Don't get me wrong, I think Thanksgiving is great and can't wait for it, but nothing gives me greater joy than watching Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas, lighting peppermint scented candles, decking the halls, and baking gingerbread cookies. So while we approach the greatest time of the year, let's watch the 15 best Christmas movies of all time.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.
