Oh well done S; so happy for her.
I must admit that waitresing is the one thing I've never done and have no desire to do.... It may come as a surprise , but I'm not a very subservient person and don't to the serving thing very well (probably comes from growing up with 3 brothers)
My first job was working in a nursery, with babies from 3 months - 2 years. Lots and lots of nappies that needed changing. And from there I always did secretarial / admin / reception kind of jobs.
