Excellent. Worth reading.

I always treat the waitresses with respect, patience and courtesy. I'm grateful for them because *they* are serving *me* and I'm not cooking. :~)

My Mother never heard of the Dalai Lama and I know nothing about him...but Moma said: "Not everyone can be beautiful, not everyone can we rich, not everyone can be intelligent; but everyone can be kind."

Both my daughters were waitresses in high school and college and I'm always so good to the wait staff because I knew the other end of it from them.

Hmm, wonder who the TV presenter was

As someone who worked as a waitress for yrs, I treat them like family. My bro gives surprise overtips such as $20 on a $15 bill ever since he heard about how once that kind of generosity made so difference to me.
