Your waitress training is the most valuable training that you have, it has as a rule, found me a job the first day I went looking.
I once figured up the cost of taking a job in an aircraft plant, or remaining a waitress in a neighborhood coffee shop.
My shoes cost $5.99, the black taffeta skirt was $5.99 and the black and white checked blouse $2.99, I wore cheap nylons.
Added to that was snacks and drinks and one good meal a day and then I would have to have nice clothes to work in an office, decided that I could not afford to take the ‘better’ job, and I am a good waitress.
Worked at Sheldon’s for 8 years, met Bill there.
So goes life, you do what is right at the time and some day you will understand it all.
LOL, my brother shows up once a year or not at all, he lives closer to you and this year is building a house for himself, something he wants to do before he dies.
He has beat off a bunch of heart trouble and kidney cancer.
I have no idea how he passed 70 years so quickly.
Hi, granny! Just checking in....do you ever sleep? So many good posts to read. I love some of the recipes. Will definetly try them. But, dog gone it, I’m probably going to have to buy more printer paper to print out everything I want to! I know I could probably save it but I really like to “hold” paper.
I’ll bet you were a good waitress. I know if I had to I could still do it. Depending on where you work they make some darn good tips. But then you’ve have the govt. with their hand out.
Again, I really enjoy all the tips and interesting facts you’ve found.
Take care!
