Waitress Woes-Nasty Customers

Well you're saying your steak isn't rare And there's food stains on your silverware You say I exude A bad attitude Well just ask me if I really care! You've been nothing but trouble for me Now you're trying to get your meal free I've seen your type before Let me show you the door No you can't have a refill of tea! Now I hear all these rude things you say Don't you know I work hard for my pay? I'm as good as you are Guess I'll go hit the bar Cos' I'm quitting this job anyway! **for contest "A Fly On The Wall" sponsored by Michael Falotico

Nice one Deb, it's sad that there are people out there who try these trick on. Shame on them, and they might just need that steak for their eye, hehe!:)

Years ago, I was turned down for a job at Olive Garden. Today, I consider that a blessing. Your poem describes in great detail the ordeal both waitresses and waiters go through with customers on a daily basis. Doesn't it want you to encourage more people to do their own cooking?
