Way back when I became working age, I told myself that I would NEVER work in a restaurant.
I ask all you guys complaining about bad tippers and bad managers, why do you choose to work in such places? -

Some people do it out of necessity. I just ask that you never go to any restaurant. Seems to me that you have a sense of superiority that would make you behave in a similar manner as the lady who got the well-deserved bodily fluids in her food.

It's good money if you work at a decent place. In my last Job I walked home with around $260 a night in cash. Especially if you work in resort towns you can make bank. People on vacation (if they are not foreign tend to splurge while dining) I didn't work there, but my friend made close to $400 a night (in season) at a place called Sunset Grille that overlooks the Florida keys 7-mile bridge.
It's helping to pay off my student loans, and paid completely for a month in Europe back in August.Preemptively apologizing for my iPads Autocorrect. -

Some people really enjoy cooking and baking. I have friends and family who are bakers or cooks/chefs. They have a passion for what they do. As far as working as a waiter in a high end restaurant you can make a nice salary. I had a friend who waited tables in college at a restaurant where the average bill for two people was over $200, 20% of that is $40. You can see how she could make some decent money.

It's called a job, something I'm betting the OP has never held.
I spent 12 years in restaurants and looking back, I feel okay about the choices I made. At the very least, I never took a retail job. shudders -

It's a good job when you're young and still in school. Plus you take cash home every night instead of waiting 1-2 weeks for a paycheck.
Especially if you're one of those young kids who still lives at home with their parents not having to pay any bills. $400-$500/week is good money!
