About this ebook

According to The Waiter, eighty percent of customers are nice people just looking for something to eat. The remaining twenty percent, however, are socially maladjusted psychopaths. Waiter Rant offers the server's unique point of view, replete with tales of customer stupidity, arrogant misbehavior, and unseen bits of human grace transpiring in the most unlikely places. Through outrageous stories, The Waiter reveals the secrets to getting good service, proper tipping etiquette, and how to keep him from spitting in your food. The Waiter also shares his ongoing struggle, at age thirty-eight, to figure out if he can finally leave the first job at which he's truly thrived.

Ratings and reviews

At times, laugh-out-loud funny, at times grim and unthinkable. Shows how truly horrible some members of the human race can be......I was STUNNED to hear what waitstaff has to endure sometimes. Makes me proud I've always been kind, respectful and a good tipper!!!!

Excellent descriptive writing...
