This summer I had the chance to get a job. I worked in a restaurant as a waiter and I really learned a lot about how this world works. I applied for the job in may and they hired me before I ended school the 10th June I think. The first days I only did the night service because I had to be in the school during the day. The first days I felt a bit clumsy and everything was difficult, but day and day after I learned new things that helped me to have more control. My record of services was 240 people with only 2 waiters and 3 cooks. That really helps you to get your mood pumped, you feel very relaxed and useful! The thing that shocked me the most was having a salary, I really felt that I had earned it. I was so happy too with my workmates (we were already friends when I began working there), they behaved really well with me and taught me a lot of things.
Another thing I liked, that I didn't expect I would like, were grateful customers. I don't know why but you feel really good when somebody you don't know tells you things like "Nice english!" or "You're so good for being that young!". I didn't really felt proud about the message itself but for the comprehension. Sometimes is not easy to be always smiling when there are 7 tables waiting for menus.
What I also enjoyed a lot was a day specially, we organized a jam session in the restaurant and I was invited to play the guitar, I had a really great time showing how did I play to the customers! I leave some pics below, hope you like 'em!
