Deb Wilson Poet Limerick

Waitress Woes-Nasty Customers

Well you're saying your steak isn't rare
And there's food stains on your silverware
You say I exude
A bad attitude
Well just ask me if I really care!

You've been nothing but trouble for me
Now you're trying to get your meal free
I've seen your type before
Let me show you the door
No you can't have a refill of tea!

Now I hear all these rude things you say
Don't you know I work hard for my pay?
I'm as good as you are
Guess I'll go hit the bar
Cos' I'm quitting this job anyway!

James Fraser January 28, 2011 at 11:25 AM Nice one Deb, it's sad that there are people out there who try these trick on. Shame on them, and they might just need that steak for their eye, hehe!:)

Robert Pettit January 28, 2011 at 10:41 AM Years ago, I was turned down for a job at Olive Garden. Today, I consider that a blessing. Your poem describes in great detail the ordeal both waitresses and waiters go through with customers on a daily basis. Doesn't it want you to encourage more people to do their own cooking?
