[quote=Anonymous]Waitress on 6 am shift at Waffle House -- and I am not a morning person.
Worked a lot of waitress jobs (and some were fine) but got fired from one & had to take this lousy job when I was in my young 20's until I found a better one because very poor at the time.

Terrible tips, greasy restaurant and a fair number of homeless people who stopped by to beg for food.  Best part of day was slipping them toast & coffeee (or even eggs on good day) with boss catching you.

Waiting tables was great experience for me overall.  Made me respect people who work all day on their feet & still are able to be pleasant.  Like other posters, I saw middle aged people working at jobs I was doing because I was dumb & dropped out of college leaving scholarship behind.  That made me appreciate my education more when I finished it later and the family I grew up in.  I saw people who went without eating at home & ate meals at work to save food dollars for their kids.  And I saw hard working immigrants suffer great indignities to try to hold a job & make a life for their families.

And that means that today I tip well....and know that but for the grace of God it could have been me in that job still today (vs. my well paid gov job with great benefits).[/quote]
