Well said..bravo! and yes I am a server. I have raised 4 children on my wages, quite nicely I might add. I did go back to college and make more serving thhan working in the medical field. go figure!! lol

I don't wish death on them, but maybe for someone to duel them to the pain.

Give that teenage so many medals!

I am guessing she didn't know it was this bad. I myself didn't go to the doctor in February until I got winded walked 10 feet to the bathroom. I had a chest infection and they were worried I had pneumonia. When I first met my bf he went into the hospital one day. He had a gal stone, ear infection, pneumonia and…

Thank you for your comment! This is where I bust out the "P" word and politely remind us all to check our health and medical services privilege at the door. I think there's a worthwhile conversation to be had here about teachers who push boundaries in regards to emergency situations—I get that a lot of people don't…

A lot of people dress in ways that annoy me.

Co-sign. He's also the one human being on earth (that I met in person) that defined the word "charisma" for me. Not particularly tall, not particularly handsome. But godDAMN.

Well, singling out children and making them wear something that alerts loud and clear they were BAD and wore those slutty leggings is fucked up. Same reason a dunce cap would be mean. Singling out children and making them wear something as a form of punishment is all about shame, they are sending the message to the…

If the administration is wasting time creating and modifying sexist dress codes when there is no evidence of there having been a problem created, then that's time that could have been spent towards actually improving education.

Sure they are. The are knit and not woven. Also they lack a lot of the hard wear and pockets pants have (which I freaking hate). They styles are totally different. They fit under the pants category, but they are very different.

"why do they think its acceptable to walk around school with leggings on and probably not a long enough shirt that is covering their butts. "

Or they are fighting for the right to wear what they want and not be told that however the boys behave is on them. Tight pants are not bad. Stop shaming the children :/

that is fucked up. especially if the girl does want to press charges. the sooner she talks to the police and goes to a hospital, the better her chances. this is what i meant. i get that police can a horrible experience for a rape victim but i think the default should be to involve police and then maybe decide the…

Amen to all of this; but let me add that I know some career servers. This is their life's work, and some of them work in amazing high end restaurants and some of them work really cool events, but some of them just do the job because it's what they can do to get by. Regardless, they have the right to vent about their…

There it is again: ""...remind/convince myself that I was smarter than the person spending his/her money." You have an insecurity problem and think everyone is looking down at you so you lash out. That's not healthy. Get some therapy.

I can't quite tell if you're trolling or not, but, for the record, I wait tables as my second job. I work at a daily paper as my primary and have a bachelor's degree. I'm probably better educated than half the people I wait on. Until you've tried waiting tables (which anyone can see that you haven't,) check your…

And here those people are, sharing the diversity of the human race with us. No one claimed superiority, no need to insult every single person you've never met in the food industry.

Since when does it take a particle physicist to avoid ordering smoked fish and then getting pissed off when you're given smoked fish? You're not "holding the mirror up" and you haven't spoken any hard truths. You're concern trolling, and being ridiculous even by concern troll standards.

I can't imagine anyone would think that someone who took time out of their day to lecture others for enjoying stories that they deemed "mean" (whilst deriding them for not having an "important" job like atom splitting could ever come off as superior.

The people in these stories are idiots, and highly amusing. Surely, you also share stories about ridiculous situations that happen in your life? That's what this is. Also, just because one is a waiter doesn't mean one isn't a completely intelligent human being. My best friend got full ride to a great college to study…
