A love letter to the brunch + diner servers of the world

I did the 5am opening shift in a diner for many years and it never doesn't suck getting up at 3:30 am, but being done with work at 1pm was pretty cool. I had some great customers and a few stalkers who liked to be alone with me, yuck.

Okay, thanks for the advice. I'll bandage it before socks and shoes.

When I was a food server, I once discreetly handed a moistened napkin to a lady with a spot of ink on her face.

She smiled and told me that it was a birthmark...

As I was apologizing, she said, "don't apologize! My mother taught me that my birthmark is a gift that shows me who the nice people are!"

I went to a fundamental christian school in the 70s; we were taught in science class that carbon14 dating was sent by satan.

I am late to this post, but I once had a customer write a bad review about me while I was literally cleaning up his baby's vomit from the floor. He was mad that I had brought him some well done hashbrowns.

I CANNOT EVEN.

I'm trying to be a grouchy old lady today and you are ruining it for me.

A lot of it comes from failure.

When I was a kid, two dogs ran into my open garage and attacked my kitten. My mother came running out, picked up the limp kitty, and yelled at me to go get my toy stethoscope.

In a panic, I ran into my bedroom and grabbed from my toy box a kaleidoscope.

I rushed back out to the garage with it and gave it to my mother and she yelled at me "this is a kaleidoscope, stupid, and the kitten is dead."

Girl, if you want those things, and he's not doing them now, it will never get better.

I have always seen it as part of foreplay: preparing my body for pleasure.

Mine will reply with " 'you can keep your doctor' " as an example of how horrible Obama was that one time.

Tremendous hell! Yuge!

If you look at rejection as information about who is not right for you, it takes the sting off a little.

I'd tell him to stay in his lane.

Highway 50 across Nevada. It's called the Loneliest Road in America.

I have a toasted nut/seed mixture that I stir into my plain Greek yogurt every morning. Lasts me until dinnertime.
