Serving

Another adventure in my life is serving tables. Something I have always wanted to try. Well, I sure know how to pick them. University Market Street Grill is an old historic firehouse complete with 22 stairs to the dining room. We get the challenging task of carrying rather large trays of food and drinks. On April 28th, an impressive four weeks into the job, I finally dropped my first tray including two raspberry ice teas. I got to wear those pink ice teas for the rest of my shift. It's a curse to discuss trays and sure enough I distractedly talked about how it wasn't as bad as I had thought just moments before. I manage to drop my tray on a regular basis now. In fact, I was just discussing last Saturday with a few other servers the responsibility that I have to entertain those I work with as well as make them feel better about themselves. And I think I do a pretty great job at it.
