Busser at Cantina Laredo

Q: What is your hourly wage?

A: $6.00 per hour and 40% of the server’s tips, and my own tips.

Q: What is the biggest mistake you have made on the job?

A: I dropped four glasses. I was carrying a big tray of glasses and I was just thinking to myself, “Wow, I’m really getting better at balancing these glasses.” Right after that, I turned a corner too sharply and all the glasses fell off. All of my co-workers made fun of me after that.

Q: What is the weirdest thing that has happened on the job?

A: One time a server dropped all of these people’s food on their table. I had to clean it up and it was pretty awkward. 

Q: What have you learned?

A: I have learned more social skills. Especially how to hold up a conversation with strangers.
