Day 13 - a public apology
Well, I'm ahead of the pack on this one, seeing as how I already have public apology, Apologies From My Younger Self.
But don't you worry, I have PLENTY of apologies to write in my lifetime.
We'll just mark another one off the list.
Dear every person I ever waited on while I was a waitress,
I am truly sorry that I was, at best, a mediocre waitress.
I did the best I could, but I'll just be honest and say that it wasn't enough. Not by a long shot.
To the nice couple that I just couldn't figure out how to charge correctly for their meal: I'm realllllllly sorry for charging your debit card incorrectly and for not applying your coupon correctly. And thank you for still leaving me a tip. Truly classy of you.
To the man who asked if we made the spamoni icecream in house, to which I promptly answered "yes": I'm sorry that I unintentionally lied to you. We indeed do NOT make the ice cream there and I have no reasonable explanation as to why I answered yes without a second thought.
To all my fellow servers who helped pull me out the" weeds" basically every night: thanks again for making change for me because I never brought the proper amount in with me and I don't count very well under pressure. And thanks for refilling the dressing/bread/ice for me because I just truly didn't have enough time to do so myself.
And lastly, to the group of people who ordered 20 alcoholic beverages at once: please accept my sincere apology for attempting to carry ALL said beverages on one tray and as a result sent the tray tumbling directly on to a few you. To be fair, a man scooted his chair our in front of me, which resulted in the massive drink spillage.
Don't worry, I've found a more suitable day job.
Sincerely,
Your terrible yet charming waitress.
