Being a server is a great job to learn customer service, make a lot of money fast, learn to deal with stress, etc. But sometimes, being a server can be one of the most difficult jobs because you never know who you are going to be dealing with when you walk up to serve a table. Here are just a few things that accurately describe being a server:

1. When the customer asks you every ingredient in every dish as if it is not written in clear English right in front of them.

2. When customers come in during the lunch rush and tell you they are in a hurry.

3. When you have rude customers and they leave less than a 10% tip.

4. When the customers are arguing about who is going to pick up the checks or how many to split it into.

5. When your table of 40 are all on one check.

6. When you are just so over it.

7. When you ask a table if everyone is doing okay and literally no one responds.

8. The accuracy.

9. When you're cut and you have to wait for your last table to pay and leave.

10. The secret life you live when you go back to the kitchen with your co-workers.

11. The people who just really don't understand.

12. This has happened more times than you would think.

13. The realization that you will never know what time you will be off.

14. "Can you split all 40 of us onto separate checks?"

15. As much as it sucks sometimes, you will work there as long as you can because you know you won't ever make as much money as fast as you do being a server.
