I hate being a waitress.

New revelation... I thought maybe it was just the place I was working... but I'm realizing that more & more everyday...I just plain hate being a waitress. There's something so demeaning about serving people. I don't know how people do it as a living for their whole lives!

You know... you walk out to the table you're a nice person... they think you are just trying to get a better tip. Now, I shouldn't stereo-type here. There are a few different kinds of people...

1. The I am better than you-bring my food & run your ass all over the place on my slightest whim so I can leave you the $1 or $2 that I feel you deserve...

2. The I'm a person you're a person, I eat out a lot, & I'm nice...or I'm tired... & I'm glad I'm not at home cooking dinner. (pretty rare)

3. The "wow. waitresses are hot" I think I will speak to her breasts & raise my eye brows seductively while I order & really impress her. (While I have my teeth rotting out of my face & I smell like filth) I wonder if I drop my fork/napkin/whatever if she'll bend over & pick it up...?

4. The I'm going to order an all you can eat fish fry & share it with my kid so this waitress gets in trouble. I mean, I paid for it, & it IS all you can eat. Maybe I'll order extra pieces to take home too. They are so stupid these waitresses, just a bunch of dummies that have no education.

5. The I want my meal reduced/free, & I don't care who I step on to get it. (I see this WAY too often) "Uh, EXCUSE ME! But, my potato is yellow & I'm not eating it, my fish is cold, (because I let it sit there 20 minutes while I talked about how fat Marys ass is getting...), & my soup spoon is dirty. (IE water spots)I want to talk to the manager. Or maybe I'll seem ok, & not complian until I am leaving... Or maybe I'll take it all out on YOU like it's all your fault, because you are just a measly waitress. And since my food wasn't just the way I wanted it, & you have total control over the entire restaurant & al that happens within it...I'm going to stiff you. You deserve nothing because you are making WAY too much money @ $2.33/hour, & your kids don't deserve to eat.

**Welcome to my life...**
Do you ever feel like breaking down? Do you ever feel out of place? Like somehow you just don't belong And no one understands you Do you ever want to run away? Do you lock yourself in your room? With the radio on turned up so loud That no one hears you screaming No you don't know what it's like When nothing feels alright You don't know what it's like to be like me To be hurt To feel lost To be left out in the dark To be kicked When you're down To feel like you've been pushed around To be on the edge of breaking down And no one's there to save you No you don't know what it's like Welcome to my life Do you wanna be somebody else? Are you sick of feeling so left out? Are you desperate to find something more Before your life is over? Are you stuck inside a world you hate? Are you sick of everyone around? With the big fake smiles and stupid lies While deep inside you're bleeding No you don't know what it's like When nothing feels alright You don't know what it's like to be like me To be hurt To feel lost To be left out in the dark To be kicked When you're down To feel like you've been pushed around To be on the edge of breaking down And no one's there to save you No you don't know what it's like Welcome to my life No one ever lied straight to your face And no one ever stabbed you in the back You might think I'm happy But I'm not gonna be ok Everybody always gave you what you wanted You never had to work it was always there You don't know what it's like What it's like To be hurt To feel lost To be left out in the dark To be kicked When you're down To feel like you've been pushed around To be on the edge of breaking down And no one's there to save you No you don't know what it's like (what it's like) To be hurt To feel lost To be left out in the dark To be kicked When you're down To feel like you've been pushed around To be on the edge of breaking down And no one's there to save you No you don't know what it's like Welcome to my life Welcome to my life Welcome to my life
