As a waitress, it is our job to serve you. However, some requests can be a bit tedious and out of the way, especially during a rush. Here are some things that can be considered annoying to your waitress:

1. Asking for a detailed list of what's in every single dishes

What is in the plate? What are the exact contents in the contents of each detail in the plate.

2.Asking where the bathroom is before you can order

It would be easier if you ordered first and then went to the bathroom so that way your waitress doesn't have to come back.

3.Asking for a drink product that requires you to go pour and mix multiple things together.

Milkshakes and mixed beverages take time and effort and it's annoying during a rush.

4. Asking about a special thats on a menu board/ display and then getting up and looking at it yourself

So I basically memorized the menu or ran over to quickly memorize it for you to act like I did, for nothing.

5. Asking to sing "Happy Birthday"

Once again, during a rush, be considerate that other waitresses have to join in to sing and it's uncomfortable to have to assemble people.

6. Asking for deserts

Flickr

Most chain restaurants have the waitress make the desert so it's annoying to have to throw together in an entire dish that looks presentable.

7. Asking to change the temperature

This is a restaurant, not your house.

8. Asking for music/ volume to be changed

Repeat of the above

9. Asking for obsessive amounts of things you won't need

Flickr

Literally if you order several bowels of whatever and then never touch them, you deserve to go to a new level of hell.

10. Asking for your number and then leaving you a trash tip

Flickr

I mean this is why we gave you a fake number or politely refused.

11. Asking for alcohol when you don't have an ID

Sorry but we have to card you.

Just be considerate of these things when asking of your waitress and make sure to give them a fair tip for their service!

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

It is no secret that many American traditions have changed over time. As we grow older we change in so many ways that it only makes sense that we also change the way we celebrate special occasions. Of course when it comes to the holidays there are some family traditions that many of us still excitedly look forward to, whether it is eating your favorite dish or seeing favorite cousin. However, we all know that the holidays have overall changed a little from what they used to be.
