Me in Kingston, Ontario 63 months ago	If you would like to work with Handicaps, I highly suggest a profession in nursing...you may have to go to school for a few years but you get a lot out of it and you can transfer your waiting/people/social skills over. I just warn you that in the first few years you deal with a lot of crap, but it gets better, just like waiting! - Was this comment helpful? Yes (4) / No Reply - Report abuse

Kristie in San Ramon, California 46 months ago	If you have the experience dealing with the public, try hotels. They are always looking for freindly outgoing people. Its a steady job and usually good benefits, also most hotels always look within for promotions. In no time you could become a manager. - Was this comment helpful? Yes (2) / No Reply - Report abuse

My update is, I'm still a server (2 days a Week}. I've been writing a novel, which is almost done. That's the easy part. There's a lot of editing,to be done. When everything is said and done. Maybe I'll be a published author. I have maybe four yrs before I retire. So, working in the hospital, with the meal delivery, sounds great with benefits. - Was this comment helpful?

somewhere, somehow in Simpsonville, South Carolina 21 days ago	server make crazy money!! in Surrey, British Columbia said: Low pay?? no way!!

No, you see, it's different in the states. I've been to Canada, and know a lot of people in Canada that are servers. You get paid a lot more on top of the tips. Two totally different worlds. I know servers here who get paid,you won't believe it, 2.33 PER HOUR. Tell me that isn't horse s***. - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse
