She would either get simply mad or ask you to not do it again, otherwise she would send you home and not get paid. If she would see you struggling with an aspect of the job, she would not help you. If you were ordered to put candles on the tables, she would blow them off and you would have to lit them again. The one manager that would deliberately interfere with your assignments. There was a policy that no one could leave early on weekends, even if you were done with your shift and you never really agreed to do overtime.

You all have heard the stereotypical manager that yells at you for no reason? Well, I've had one of those too.

Eventually, time passed and things got crazier, just like this article will. Come on, who do you think was asked to clean after the dog? Luckily, a co-worker noticed that I felt unhappy so he or she offered to do it. I do still want to get some emotion out of you, so here I come! Anyway, me working as a busser was not all that pretty, although that goes without saying. You should know by now I don't write to please the masses. I may get crucified for writing this article, but ever since Jesus and Rock'n Roll couldn't save my sinful soul, well, I've got nothing left to lose. Moral judgement does not allow some of us to dance in a pole. The irony of it is that a job is a job, so as much as you feel like a slave, because sometimes you do, you can't really complain that much. Better yet? Having to do the job of someone else because that "someone" else didn't had the decency to do it.

For example? Having to clean after a dog, just because the boss is bothered by something as banal as dogs having to do what those beloved creatures do I mean, they don't know any better so it's not their fault. No one tells you what that means exactly, which opens the possibility of having people asking you to do things that don't necessary have to do with the job itself. That's one of the pros of this job: It is easy to do and training is offered. It's basically an entry level job that anyone can get after high school, like I did. The main job descriptions are cleaning/setting tables and assisting the waiting staff. For those who don't know, a busser is a person who works in the restaurant and catering business.
