As A Waitress, If I Ignore You It's Because I Think You're A Piece Of Shit Not Because I'm Busy

Of course we have a bathroom, we don't shit in a hole.

First of all, if at any time you feel offended or attacked, you probably treat wait staff, and most likely most humans, like crap. Sorry to break it to you but you are a piece of shit.

Let’s start with before you even sit down. If you would like a booth, but none are available, you are going to have to wait your turn, or did you forget that lesson from kindergarten? Also, lose the shit attitude when you see other people sit in the tables you were too good to sit in.

If your waitress consistently ignores you and your service declines at every visit, this is because words travel fast and it is saying that your tips and attitude are trash, do better. Likewise, if you are charged for every single extra thing you asked for, it is because you were a pain in the ass. Yes, that ice was thirty cents, and I don’t know why you needed eight ranches but those were twenty-five cents apiece, as well.

Water, sweet tea, or any other beverage is not the answer to “How are you today?" I am a human, not a dog, or whatever else you think you can treat me like. If you do not have money for a tip, STAY AT HOME OR GO TO MCDONALD’S, and save the lecture about how I chose this job or how I should go to school.

News flash, I am in school, for education so maybe I will get the chance to teach your ugly kids how to be a decent human. I, unfortunately, cannot get a better job because I am in 18 credit hours and the only jobs that can fit in my busy schedule are shitty restaurants and retail. Therefore, even though I am more educated than you and obviously a lot more becoming, I still have the pleasure of interacting with your dumbass with a smile.

Below are some dumbass things people have said and every waiter’s desired response.

“Y’all got a bathroom?”

Absolutely not, we shit outside in a hole.

“I’m not paying for this?”

Well, I don’t know who the hell else is, cash or card?

“Y’all got good water?”

Nope, it tastes like absolutely nothing, order a real drink.

“Can I have fresh tea?”

Duh, I will absolutely go to the back and brew a fresh batch of sweet tea just for you in the three minutes that you are willing to wait, or I will take the same tea and add a splash of our tasteless tap water and make up a story on how it was just made by our all-star tea maker. Either way you will never know the difference.

“I know the owner.”

Sweet, me too.

“I will never be coming back.”

Damn, I will miss you.

“I was charged extra for ____.”

Well, that is what happens when you order it.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
