response: Interesting. Waiters receive tips that may be a major or minor contribution of their total earnings. Do you receive that also?
original_response: So it is pretty informal. A lot of waiters also receive tips as a minor or major part of their earnings.
history: Hi, I wait tables at a family restaurant. Have you ever worked the bar, or catered in a private home? You mostly just attend to customers right? Yes, I focus on the customers, although I have filled in at the kitchen occasionally. I have not worked the bar. Right that makes sense, so you have to follow guidelines and rules that the manager developed ? Yes, I do. Sometimes it's hard being polite to rude customers! I can imagine, do you have a specific uniform that you and the rest of the wait staff has to weaR? We can wear our own jeans, but we have to wear a shirt that we get with our logo on it.
knowledge: Waitstaff may receive tips as a minor or major part of their earnings, with customs varying widely from country to country.
