      Indeed. That is objectively not “waiting tables”, and after 2 years as a line cook fry guy dishwater and long time waiter i can tell you also that it subjectively is not “waiting tables”.

      In no way is your time spent in the back of the house, in the proximity of waiters relevant to the trials of customer facing work waiting tables.

      Please stop being ridiculous

        You get paid more than any of us. Why did you not go back to work as a dishwasher or line cook instead of waiting tables if the daily horrors of dealing with the unwashed masses are so traumatizing?

              It was merely a pretense for my telling you to “delete this nephew” in a new bespoke bust just for you.

              I attempt to make every comment i make entertaining, even the insulting ones. This “serves” (get it?) two purposes: it is more fun for me, and more memorable for you.

              Please remember to tip!

                  No, you’re fine with the racism, you just won’t pay the waiter. Right? Cuz you’re fine spending money in the racist establishment, and being served racism with your meal. You’ll keep spending money to the racist owner who employs the racist server, eat the racist food, but the line in the sand you draw? Tipping racism. What an astounding take to share.

                  This isn’t how you actually think. You’re just fucking around with me cuz i know how to insult and you want the last word, right? I just can’t grok this blind spot you have otherwise.

                  If you’re just trolling, look… you don’t need to come to with the perfect response to get back at me…you are insulting me! You’ve already won! The game at being obtuse and getting me angry, right? You’ve won, simply through your complete and comprehensive lack of effort.

                    Bad faith bullshit when I’m talking about near constant interactions with racist waiters and I already said I always tip. I’m going to disengage.
