Hey readers,
I hardly enjoyed the week off. I spent it procrastinating and stressing about the assignments I have due this week and am now left with that mess to clean up. But that's not what this blog is about. I worked another shift at the diner today, which may be my 4th shift there (I could be wrong). I am still a baby at this place and the menu is huge.
I had a table of 6 come in that looked my age. I was on top of serving them, but when it came to taking their orders, I had to ask other workers the questions that my customers had. I told them that I am still very new (and when I do that, customers are usually super kind and patient) but these people were rude and actually made me feel a bit stupid.
One of the girls who paid for 2 bills didn't even tip me and when it happened, I felt pretty shitty about myself. Obviously they didn't like their service.
And then it hit me.
F*ck you.
Seriously. I'm just a student whose busting her ass in school full time, working and volunteering. I put my all into my job but I am also very new and I know I do my best. So f*ck you if you don't see that while I might not have been the best, I was truly trying my best.
You can keep your 10% tip.
I just don't give myself enough credit sometimes.

We never give ourselves enough credit.
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how completely silly customers can make you feel.
I usually tell them "I'm new" or "this is new menu" so - "we're all learning together!" You would think people would be more understanding and less put-out because you took the time to find their answer!
