I worked at Bob's Big Boy while I was a junior in High School. I worked six tables and got paid $1.12 plus tips on an 8 hour shift.

I bussed tables, made coffee, served meals and fixed ice cream sundaes. I had *sshole kids make fun of our silly hats we had to wear (1977) and their folks say nothing. I had bald guys ask me how long it took me to put on my make-up. (It was all I could to do to ask them how long it took them to wax their pate.)

I short, waiting tables is the hardest work anyone can ever do. If you have never done it, you have no idea how exhausting it is.

I short, waiting tables is the hardest work anyone can ever do. If you have never done it, you have no idea how exhausting it is.

I have never waited tables but recognize that it is very hard work. Which is why I always try to tip well. While I sometimes get bad service, most of the time, the servers do a great job.
