A Comment on Comments

There have been so many comments lately and as much as I want to respond to each and every one I simply do not have the time. My social calendar is completely full and my time is extremely valuable. For instance, just moments ago I ate an entire box of mac and cheese and that takes time people. And skill. However, I thought that it would be fun to pull a few of the most interesting comments and respond to them here in an open forum. Behold:


Anonymous said in regards to this post:

You sound like the typical drug useing, I hate my daddy, I'm gonna do a better job if I get pregnant accidentally after work at the party, I am a waitress that's smarter than the world, maybe I can scam drinks off this table by not ringing up the drinks waitress. Grow up, have a family, and post something worth reading. You need a monkey leash.

May I respond, Anonymous? First off, I can't take any comment seriously if you can't spell words correctly. And you do not know how to spell "using" which is a real issue for me. You're dumb. And please note that I used "you're" and not "your" because it is correct. And why do you think I want to get pregnant after work? For one thing, I don't have a uterus which is another big issue. I am a man. Bitchy WAITER not Bitchy WAITRESS. You're dumb. And the whole grow up and have a family and post something worth reading thing? I have no desire to spread my seed and bring a child into my life. The thought of it makes me sick. The only thing that would make me feel sicker would be another boring ass blog about someones supposedly adorable baby. And as for the monkey leash, well you may be right.

Floyd said in regards to this post:

Honestly, I am 19 years old and I think you are way out of line. First off, dont give the old and tired excuse: "Oh, I might lose my job if I serve alcohol to minors." Our government is run by a bunch of controlling pricks that work for special interest groups. You should do what is right and if a minor wants alcohol is no big fucking deal to serve them. Grow up and stop following the law like a zombie.

Oh Floyd. Dear, sweet, naive, dumb-as-a-brick Floyd. Do you really think that "I might lose my job" is a tired excuse? You know what I think is tired? Obnoxious 19 year old boys who think they know the answers to every world problem. You're probably the same kid who sits next to me on the R train with his iPod playing way too loud. And you take up two seats because you spread your legs so wide since you think your balls are so impressive that you couldn't possibly keep your legs close together. Pull your pants up, pull your head out of your ass and leave the blog.

And finally, to all the people who suggest that I quit bitching about my job and find a new one: shut up. Get over it. It's what I do. I bitch. If I was a doctor, I would have a blog called The Bitchy Doctor. Or The Bitchy Teacher, The Bitchy Prostitute, The Bitchy Nurse, The Bitchy Priest, The Bitchy Architect, or the Bitchy Homeless Man. I will always and forever be bitchy. I'm good at it and Oprah told me to find what I am good at and do it. In the holy name of Oprah, I shall be The Bitchy Waiter.

Oh, to have the cojones to say what I think. Thank you for speaking your mind. I bitch vicariously through you.

Unknown said...

I tell people who tell me to get a new job to fuck off as well. Those are probably the shitty tippers who think that if they tip low all the waiters and waitresses and pizza delivery dudes will walk off the job and The Man will be forced to pay normal minimum wage. They have a fundamental misunderstanding of the way the world works.

Rosa said...

Bitchy waiter you say in words what so many people don't have the guts to say out loud THANK YOU!!! Love you & Happy bitching!

Brittany said...

Floyd has clearly tried and been turned down for being a minor at quite a few restaurants.

Alexa O said...

Why are people so intent on peeing on the fun parade? Lord knows there are at least ten million blogs written by people who have grown up, had a family, and donned a monkey leash (aka "husband"). Go read one of those blogs, Anonymous. Leave the fun parade (which, come to think of it, might include some peeing and a few leashes) to those of us who love our Bitch.

Kalei's Best Friend said...

Dude, I think by the comments they are just trying to yank your chain.. If u think about it anonymous may think u are female because of the adjective 'bitchy'... oh and she probably is 12...
Keep posting what u want,, the majority love you...lol ok garcon?

Holly said...

I love your blog! I'm not a server anymore, but waitressed for 5 years at the airport on Maui - we got all kinds in there! After smiling for hours each day when you have no choice and being nice to people who are not necessarily nice to you, this is such a great release! I wish I had thought of it back then! Those customers could get really grumpy - and park themselves at our tables so we couldn't turn them over - especially during flight delays! Then we'd get the verbal tip - Oh, you are so nice - thank you for such great service - those are the ones who wouldn't leave a dime. I could go on and on, but wont since I can rant vicariously through you. Your blog is SO on the money!
Cheers! Keep on Bitchin! :-)

Anjel said...

Most of my co-workers in the food service industry gather after the shift is over so that we can vent and "bitch" about all the crap that happened during the shift. We are not able to have an honest reaction when things actually happen, so we have to stifle our emotions. If we did not take the time to release the ire building within we would eventually explode...probably all over our next stupid table. You, BW, have taken it to a new level. Congrats to you. Keep on Bitchin!

Carrieann said...

I freakin love you. And I expect personal, drawn-out responses to every single comment that I post from here on out.

KP said...

Ohh, Bitchy Waiter, these two imbeciles have OBVIOUSLY never worked in the food business, and for this reason alone I can understand where they are coming from. But their rudeness and hostility towards you is completely unfounded. We, as your 'followers', love you and that's all that matters. Keep on keepin' on!

Heather & Chris said...

Why do people leave you comments to stop bitching when it's obvious what your blog is about....it's in the title. It's not like you're making them read it. They are bitching about your bitching. Lol. They can just click on the "Next Blog" button and get over it. I've never been a waitress but I have a close friend that is. I give you all props for doing what you do. I worked in a nursing home...I should start a blog about being a bitchy nurses aide that gets treated like shit and shit on (literally). Good luck to you, I enjoy your blog!

Derby Wallus said...

Hear! Hear!

Lauren said...

I love bitching. And you're funny as hell when you do it. So keep it up. PLUS being bitchy in a sarcastic humorous fashion is an art form...and one that you master, might I add.

Queen of the Rant said...

I like this comment response idea too, another great segment on a GREAT blog, people call me a bitch like its a bad thing, I thought they were complementing me, hmmm... but sometimes I spell things wrong, and now I think it makes me look stupid, I just thought now that I am out of University I can spell things wrong and no one would give a $&@#, double hmmm....

Lady Penelope said...

ah, surely they're just jealous, of your ability to pull in friends and commenter's to your blogs...You have a natural way about you, which makes the scene's you describe appear in ones mind...and it's such fun...to be bitchy and to have a laugh at life and our fellow travellers through it once on a while........
So, carry on please, I'm loving your column.

rae said...

I think this blog is great.

tiff said...

I agree with Leigh...I bitch vicariously through you as well. In fact, I pretty much adore you (and that's saying something since I don't even know who you are).

Jorie said...

This was almost as funny as your normal posts. You should do occasional "comment responses" like this more often!

Two Flights Down said...

Funny how "growing up" equates to having a family, AND only those with families have anything to say that's "worth reading." Anybody who believes that BS has obviously been brainwashed by society, and such people are often easily pissed off by anyone with any sort of intelligence. Not saying that those with families are all brainwashed losers; just saying that those who buy into the "you're not a success until you own a car, house, and family," crap are.

Husmoder said...

I think you´re funny, and you make me wanna smile at waiters:)

lauraingallswilderhammack said...

I think people hide behind their user name to just be cruel and mean. They can't do it face to face, but God knows they make up 500 user names just to leave their remarks on pics and blogs throught out the universe. They are small, small people. Get the salt shaker and take it with a grain.
You are fabulous.

kirsten anneke said...

As a "Customer Service Representative" for a prominent cable company: aMEN.

also...could you consider switching to prostitution? 'The Bitchy Prostitute' is something I think I'd read...
What *does* that say about me?

Lauren Elise said...

Amazing! Awesome post! I applaud anyone who has the balls to say the things you say.

I actually just recently started following your blog and this is my 2nd blog of yours that I've read. I have to say, I love it.

Prettypics123 said...

Thanks for that. Glad I didn't make the public forum response post! I'm definitely a fan!

Jessica Alger said...

I love your blog, I was a waitress so everything you talk about is what a waiter/waitress goes through. The people who bitch that your to bitchy, have obviously never waited a table in their life. I think all people should have to wait tables at some point in order to understand what you go through. Hell what anyone in the customer service sector goes through, were people first,waiter/waitress second. Keep on bitchin in the free world!

Say Hello and Wave Goodbye said...

If people claim not to like you then why are they reading your blogs? Morons. The stupidity of some people never ceases to amaze me. I like your blogs & you make me laugh. Thanks Bitchy Waiter :)

Keda said...

They should give you an intelligence test before you are allowed to post or blog:

1. If you don't like what someone is writing about, don't follow / read what they post.
2. This is not texting. This is full sentence writing, learn spelling, grammar and everything that goes along with it.

Mostly I enjoy your vents as my own. It's nice that someone out there bitches out loud so that I don't have to.

captNaj said...

Hey, whether they love you or hate you, it means they care about you...P.T. Barnum I believe said "say anything you want about me, just spell my name right when you do it", and I faithfully subscribe to that...regardless if folk have positive or negative shit to say about anything that comes out of my keyboard, I thank them for caring...so you keep right on doing what you do...keep up the bitchy work lol

Sarah said...

I adore your blog and look forward to reading it every day! Keep on Bitching!

Danielle said...

Seriously, I've said this before and you are hilarious! I wish I could bitch as good as you!

~j~ said...

I'm not in food service, but I think your comments apply pretty much to ANY service-related industry. It's important and necessary to vent. Keeps you from telling the customers what dumb fucks they are.

Love your blog and the bitchiness!

AJ said...

Quite simply, loving it.

Claire said...

Floyd's comment really pissed me off. Thank you for responding to it so eloquently! Keep up the good work.

Sivaram Kumar said...

AWESOME REBUTTAL!!

Heidi said...

Bitchy Waiter, your blog makes my day on a regular basis. Thanks. :)

Lexi said...

Floyd is going to join one of those frat houses that have a lot of drunk parties and will end up dying during some hazing event.
So...

Peta said...

This blog has officially made my day. What a glorious find. Thank you Bitchy Waiter!

TDO Timothy said...

You are very real sir, and you don't hold back. I applaud your truthfulness. Does it ever bother you that you might break a spirit? TJM

Moriah said...

I would love to know who wants to waste time trying to out-bitch you. You clearly have a higher level of intellect than most, which begs the question... why be a waiter?

Bobina said...

LOL That's hiliarious! I thought everyone else found you hilarious too... But then again, I don't go sift through all the comments either.

And... I thought you were a man... but then I thought you were a woman. And now you've confirmed the manhood. Anyway, it doesn't matter, but this is just a praise of keeping your complete anonymity.

~H~ said...

I have to tell you, that I love your blog. You crack me up. Thank You.

Anonymous said...

I just recently quit b/c I could not take to stupidity of mankind that walked into that restaurant every night ANYMORE!!!! (everyone has there breaking point). I read a few other blogs too (now that I am unemployed) and this is one of the most entertaining and you always have the most comments so you must be doing something right!!!

Unknown said...

lol! totally in love with your blog!
I thought we were in a world where people had a right to almost anything, so why the complain?
you absolutely have a right to being bitchy!

follow my blog too!.....http://halimasdiaryblog.blogspot.com/

Night Sai said...

Oh stupid people, they make me smile. At the very least they're entertaining and easy to laugh at. I love your blog and I love your bitchiness. <3

Toni said...

Holy Hell ,,, I think I pissed my pants a little laughing so hard at this post. Effing hilarious!!!! Thanks for speaking your mind and giving me good laughs!!

Unknown said...

WHAT?! Who could EVER hate your blog?! You're amazing!! the lady on table 32 post you wrote is the story of my life!! I wish I could say soooo much to so many people everyday at work. I work in Boston in a very very touristy restaurant and every experience you have made a post out of, I go through it here on a daily basis. PLEASE PLEASE DON'T EVER QUIT BITCHING

Anonymous said...

Kate said...

Keep the bitchin' coming! I can never understand why folks have to take time out of their days to comment negatively about blogs and basically "what a waste of time your blog is" blah, blah, blah...Um, how about move on to another blog that you do like and leave the bitching fun to the rest of us!
I love the Bitchy Waiter and I'd even read it if you were the Bitchy Gyno, the Bitchy Bus Driver or even the Bitchy Administrative Assistant.
Bitch on!

Nikita A said...

I don't get why people still continue to read if they don't like what they're reading. How hard is it to click on the red "X" on the top right of the window and never come back???

Ironically, these are the people who read each post with great interest and in greater detail. Hypocrites! It is your blog and you can write whatever you want. Of course, you know that! :)

Matt Cruse said...

Just keep on bitchin', dude! That's why God made bloggers.

Anonymous said...

Love the blog bitchy! I work in a shop and recognise many of my customers in your diners, I only wish I could bitch as wittily as you about them! And to all those people who keep telling us to get another job, eh, hello recession?! Keep up the good work!!!!

Be careful what ya ask for said...

I am new to this blogging thing and a bit bitchy myself one might say... I say good for you... speak your mind.... you are probably a bit like me you say on the blog because you can't get away with saying it anywhere else...you need to borrow my fake smile...

another bitchy boy said...

i heart your blog. keep on bitchin'!

lj said...

I love you too!..??
I mean I love your blog ;)
If you don't have time to answer comments, hire an assistant lol.
And I think I met most of your customers too but here in BC. Except my customers think there Royalness because they spent 2 bucks.
*@#*
well continue on...

kiss

Terra said...

best post ever. i agree especially about how annoying how every other blog is an identical shrine to the boring stay at home mom with pictures of her babies and bible passages. thanks for being original!

Anonymous said...

i love your blog! i am very similar to you only i bitch about hollywood and politics. i am not politically ca=orrect and i dont give a shit for whomever doesn't like it.

follow my blog:

or check it out then decide =)

we need more people like us in the world. People who tell the truth and how it is instead of doormats who just let things happen without doing/saying anything about it.

Anonymous said...

hahaha... Floyd, do you wear the ridiculously large diamond stud earings in both ears to try to look older? Are you upset that it's not working? Bummer...

Bitchy waiter, keep on bitching and naysayers... it's not like you couldn't figure out what this blog is going to be like from the title... Does the title say Family-Fun-Christian-Good-times Waiter? Didn't think so...

Butterfly Kisses said...

Oh my gosh, I heart your blog :) keep bitch-blogging x
