Answer:
First of all to be a really good waitress you must like people because you have to take a lot of crap from them and just smile . This was my first job and I loved it if you are a people person you can make very very good tips. Just keep in mind even when people are giving you a hard time just smile and keep thinking you only have to put up with them until they finish eating . Have fun at this job is important to.

Ignore Paula's spam. Depends on where you work. Depends on your employer. You should go in as a customer and ask the waitresses (discreetly) how it is working there. Tasks: Taking orders, getting the water and cutlery.Making sure all coffee cups are kept filled. Serving the orders,and remembering what goes to whom. (and this is for as many tables as the employer sees fit.) Smile and remember the customer is always right even when wrong. You'll be on your feet the entire shift (except for breaks).Keep track of the receipts (bill) Know how to ring up the bill just in case the Hostess is busy or they don't have one. If things are slow you may be requested to help clean floors etc. to keep the place clean.

It depends if you think being on your feet for hours carrying heavy trays, having people fuss at you if there is something wrong with the food or service, and then sometimes not tipping is easy. It can be fun if your attitude towards it is good and you can make very good money if you are a good waitress with a good attitude in a good restaurant. Any job is whatever you make it to be. If you are not sure what it taks, be a customer in several places with waitresses and pay close attention to what they do and how they do it.

Tasks: wait on customers obviously, bring their food, keep beverages filled, ensure customer satisfaction, remove dirty plates, ensure accuracy with customer bills, handle money, sidework: roll silverware, clean, prep salads, etc thingsl ike that. Waitress work is fun, its great making daily cash tips and its easy work. Oh and its a great way to develop communication and customer service skills.

Ask the people what they like to drink, if they need a few minutes before ordering their food-give them their order when it's ready, and give them the amount of how much the customer must pay-and give them their change back when they pay in cash.
