Your stories alone would make a great show... Lol if you do ever make a show let me know I would love to watch it. <br /><br />By the way you could start and end the show with you talking about what's going on in the show and the middle of the show could be what is actually happening. It would be so funny. <br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706867684354336699.post-90247340153765505432013-01-11T01:06:43.098-05:002013-01-11T01:06:43.098-05:00The other day I tripped over a purse on the floor ...The other day I tripped over a purse on the floor / rogue child combo... with a water pitcher in my hand and I fell onto another customer.

And worst thing now is the store I usually get shoes from have plastic soles. Not rubber. Plastic has zero grip. So now I have to spend three times as much on shoes that'll last me the same length of time, if I'm lucky.<br /><br />I fell on my ass yesterday. On some water people pretend never actually gets spilt, during a busy period at the end of our breakfast shift, we had next to no staff, and I was the best server on. My knees still hurt like hell, but just like you, I had to get up, brush it off. My manager looked so scared, like I wasn't going to be able to move off the damn floor. Like we have any choice in those situations ...zeebeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06172768455653947453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706867684354336699.post-14752534819436547622010-06-12T12:37:17.437-04:002010-06-12T12:37:17.437-04:00I've just started following your blog, my wife...I've just started following your blog, my wife works in the food service industry and she slips every now and then, flats help if you're allowed to wear them...waiters / waitresses work so hard...Troy Barringtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15376690778766953822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706867684354336699.post-42026772736091343762010-06-12T12:04:54.712-04:002010-06-12T12:04:54.712-04:00This post is hilarious!

A table dropped their ramekin of ranch on the floor which I promptly slipped on spilling a tray of 6 glasses all over myself and the legs of the people sitting at the table. It wasn't my table, and they were the cause of my fall which caused the entire dining room to turn and stare as the loud crash of breaking glass tends to draw attention. This also generated a lot of clapping and laughter from other co-workers. I only wish I had gotten them more wet with all the pop and ice tea on the tray ha.

The first week on the job, I was carrying a tray of waters to the booth, and the family had moved the baby carrier from the seat to the floor, right in front of the booth where I managed to trip over it and spill all the waters on the table. No, the baby was not in the carrier at that point. Yes, I turned bright red and almost cried (I was only 16, gimme a break!)<br /><br />http://mylifeaslizuncensored.blogspot.com/Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06482337754676687340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706867684354336699.post-65223695613190120232010-06-11T15:33:39.922-04:002010-06-11T15:33:39.922-04:00I've only recently started following your blog...I've only recently started following your blog but if you haven't already (plus, I have no idea if this has ever happened to you, but I'm assuming it's common in the dining service world seeing as how it happened to me) you could talk about if you ever spilled an order or drink on one of your customers.
