The Waiter

We were in a restaurant we have been frequenting for years.  I asked the waiter how long he has been there as we have been seeing him for as many years.  He said 9 years full time and the last 3 years part time on weekends.  It seems he got a full time job at a casino quite far away.  I asked him where he gets better tips.  He said at the restaurant.  If people lose at the casino, they won't often be in a mood to tip.  Interestingly his goal is to move into the banquet halls at the casino, he said workers there get a lot of perks such as bonuses.

He is a hard worker, the restaurant was very busy that night and they seemed understaffed.  Daughter L said she noticed 3 younger workers who seemed to be slacking off at the other end of the restaurant, go figure.
