For anyone who has ever worked as a host or server at a restaurant, you understand the love-hate relationship that comes with the job. While there are some good days, others can be filled with frustration and aggravation that really only those employed in the food industry can relate to. With a little help from the Krusty Krab's 374-time employee of the month, here is an inside look at the everyday life of a restaurant employee:
1. Mentally preparing yourself before starting your shift.
2. Trying to help servers buss off their tables as fast as possible during the dinner rush.
3. When guests ask, "Can we get a booth?"
4. Finally getting cut and doing your closing duties just before going home after a long shift.
5. Stealing handfuls of french fries from the kitchen before your manager notices.
6. Leaving the office after grabbing your tips from your manager.
7. Closing the night before, and having to open the next day.
8. Helping another server with a follow to their table like:

10. When you're weeded but your tables are extremely patient and understanding.

12. When you and another server get a good tip on the large party that stressed both of you out all night.
13. Telling a party they have about "10 more minutes" left on their wait time.
14. Getting double seated with multiple open tables in the restaurant.
15. When you seat a table and tell the party their server will be right with them, and they reply with "I'll have a Diet Coke".
16. Coming home after a stressful shift like:
17. Thinking to yourself, "Will I ever get out of the food industry?"
