2. Is it going to be busy?

Giphy

3. Oh no it got busy, will the server be mad that I double sat her?

Giphy

4. One server hasn't been sat in awhile, leads customer to her section for the customer to say "I can have that table instead", which is not in that servers section.

Giphy

5. Why is this guy arguing with me when I told him that there's a reservation at that table?

Giphy

6. One table has been there over two hours and there's a reservation soon is a table going to get up or will this be an awkward conversation with the people who have reservations?

Giphy

7. There's now a wait list, when will a table get up?

Giphy

8. Table of 15 people walks in that doesn't have a reservation. That's ok, let me scramble around to see if I can fit that many tables together.

Giphy

9. Customer asks for booth and there's only tables available.

Giphy

10. No one has been seated in over 30 minutes, am I going to be cut to leave soon?

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.
