So now my experience as a waiter, trust me the post of a waiter isn't as easy as it sounds because there are many stress involved.

---

Though in my resume I lied to them about working as a waiter before meanwhile the truth is that I have never worked as a waiter in my life before, so actually this is my first time.

My Experience

---

When I first started I thought that the job will be difficult to execute especially when those big and wealthy people come to place an order for food or drinks.

---

In my first day I was confused and scared when ever I see a customer sitting alone and waiting for a waiter to come so as to place an order, and since we are 6 in numbers both waiter and waitress still you must have to take a customers order because everyone will be busy.

---

So I tried my best and faced my fears and now I have learnt some of the little secrets involved in being able to effectively carry out my job as a waiter and they are;

---

• Manner of approach
• Knowing your available items

Manner Of Approach

---

Yes indeed as a waiter or a waitress one of the most important thing first is manner of approach, because in a high standard bar like ours a lot of big men comes to eat and drink there and the way we approach matters a lot.

---

Knowing Your Available Items

---

Secondly being aware of your available items in the menu is very important so that when a customer asked for an item you will know whether it's available or not and also the price as well so that you won't waste his or her time.

Smiling

Imagine if your customers came in with a frowning face you can brighten up their day with a smile, I remember yesterday when I was attending to female customer she was harsh and strict but I kept smiling back at her and all of a sudden she started smiling back and even asked for my name and when she was about to go she told me when she's coming back again.
