This anonymous work renders in book format a popular blog produced by a veteran waiter toiling in metropolitan
New York.s high-pressure restaurants. Typical of bloggers. output, this is a highly idiosyncratic, little-edited,
narrowly conceived work; nevertheless, it.s readable, fun, and, for those unfamiliar with the sphere of personal
service, highly instructive. Unlike the suave servers of Europe.s finest restaurants, American waiters rarely
find a lifelong career path and present meals only on the way to some other unrelated profession. Customers can
reflect human behavior.s extremes, and waiters confront both rudeness and parsimony. In these pages, waiters
frequently engage in mutually destructive behaviors with chefs and abuse one another on a personal level.
And waiters. near-total reliance on voluntary tipping can quickly corrupt both the tip.s giver and its receiver.
This tell-all is likely to spawn notoriety for the people who run the front of the house just as Anthony Bourdain.s
journals did for kitchen staff.
