In other news, I think I can, with a clear conscience, recommend Waiting: The True Confessions of a Waitress by Debra Ginsberg. I can't really think of anything to say about it, though. It's Ginsberg's story—why she became a waitress, what she was waiting for, what happened along the way. I was kind of lost when it came to the etiquette in fine dining restaurants, as I've never set foot in one, but the way she told the stories made it all feel very familiar. It's a pretty good book, and it definitely made up for my purchase of Nickel and Dimed.
