Here is what I don't understand, if you are in a bad mood, why would you come into an establishment and take it out on every single person around you? Seriously! I don't get this. If you are having a bad day stay at home. Don't come in and ruin my day and make me as miserable as you. I have been a server off and on for over ten years, and this has always driven me nuts. I don't understand why there are people out there who act like I am their very own personal pinata. And just like one of those blow up clowns I get knocked down and come right back just taking it over and over again. Sometimes I wonder if these people where ever taught manners when they were growing up. Just because I am taking your order, it doesn't mean that I am beneath you. I am the person handling your food and making your drinks, you think that you would be appreciative that you don't have to do it yourself.
Very recently I witnessed a woman say some horrible things to her server. She repeated them to anyone that would listen and then blamed it on the fact that she was stressed and didn't get much sleep. Okay, so you didn't get much sleep, big deal. Neither did I, but you don't see me being a royal witch to you. Yes we get tips, but honestly not that great, and not enough to put up with rude people. When this happens I sort of feel like a mother who isn't appreciated for all the things that I do. So if you are a mom, the next time that you are eating out somewhere try to remember how it feels when you don't feel appreciated and be nice to your server. They are doing the best that they can, and if you still want to be rude.... take your business somewhere else. I don't need your $2 tip you were gonna leave me anyway.
