It's been so long since I last posted on here. I don't think I realised how hard it would be to be a working mum. Noahs finally got the hang of crawling and a few other tricks. He waves at everybody now. Being back at work though is getting so much better. I feel like I have freedom outside of being a mum to do other things. I've missed working, despite being constantly tired. My husband thought it would be nice to tell me that my job isn't hard as I'm "just a waitress" but I put up with more from people then you'd think. Here's some tips for you next time you eat out:
• Don't yell at your waitress. Chances are they are busy and is trying very hard to give you good service
• Do tip. We are on minimum wage and most of the time, a couple of quid extra helps. If you've enjoyed you meal, give back.
• Don't talk to us like we're imbeciles. We know how to do our jobs so don't correct us because you think your right.
• Don't eat your food and then complain, and say you aren't paying. If it's no longer on the plate, you don't get it for free.
• Do make conversation. Chances are we've not and a chance to talk to people outside of work all day. sometimes we like to listen and talk with customers.
• Look at us when your talking. Being on the phone prevents you from using your manners.
• Use your manners!!
I miss my son whilst I'm at work, which I don't think people understand. It's like an addiction. I need to see him. I'm not young, free and single. I'm young, fun, being a mum.
