There is no doubt that being a waitress isn't for everyone. Although it makes pretty decent money (most of the time), it's especially harder if you're not a people person. The next time you're out at a restaurant, keep this in mind: serving isn't as easy as you would think, especially when you have to deal with these things.

1. People think they’re the only people in the restaurant.

Although it is my job to make you feel like you are the only person in the restaurant and make you feel important, you should also notice that I’m running around like a chicken with my head cut off trying to get all my other tables taken care of as well.

2. Don’t always judge a tipper by their age.

Because sometimes you’ll be surprised and get a $10 dollar tip from the 18-year-old at table 72 and only a $2 tip from the guy at 27 who looks established and probably has a 401K and stuff (you know, adult things).

3. I can’t control how fast your food comes out (or when we run out of things).

I’m sorry that the 100 other people in this restaurant have put their order in before you. I’m sorry that there were other customers in front of you who ordered the same thing you want and we ran out. I promise you, our cooks are working as quickly and as diligently as possible.

4. Complicated orders

You are completely welcome to get your food how you would like it, but please don’t get mad at me when I’m repeating your order back to you, just to make sure I don’t mess it up, because you’re probably going to be mad if I mess it up.

5. “What comes with it? On it?”

YOU. HAVE. THE. MENU. RIGHT. IN. FRONT. OF. YOU! I’ve literally given you 5-10 minutes to look over the menu and read the description of what you’re about to order!

6. Please don’t move tables without asking.

I’m literally losing money as you walk away to another table with another server in another section. I rely on your tip as my source of pay. Not to mention you're probably stressing out the next server because now he or she has probably been double sat.

7. Being cut is the best and the worst thing ever.

Because you’re out of there and you don’t have to deal with people anymore, at least for 24 hours (if you’re lucky), but then your chances of making more money are done. Not to mention, you’re probably stuck there for another hour or so doing sidework.
