I enjoy waitressing as I enjoy busy work and the social aspect, as well. I enjoy making sure customers have a good experience dining. I'm a very attentive waitress, and I pay attention to detail and how I present myself. I'm very hardworking, and I have experience in this field. I care a lot about efficiency and professionalism, but I also enjoy having fun with my job.
