Waiting tables is not a glamorous job, but it can certainly teach you a lot about humanity. One of our favorite quotes about working in the restaurant industry goes, “The work is thankless and fun and messy, and the world would be a kinder place if more people tried it.” As a server, I’ve had incredible days with memorable interactions, and nightmare days that I wish I could forget– but the excitement lay in not knowing which one you get. That said, I never had to take line-dancing classes, and for that, I’m eternally grateful.
