The article we had handed out in class to read was very interesting. I think it struck my interest because I have been a waitress for many years. Although I do not work at school, when I go home for breaks and summer, my steady income is the tips and the one dollar an hour I receive. Although I do agree with Mrs. Williams about the author not knowing what it was really like, since she had money and was not living off the means of tips, I felt she did I fine job of capturing the essence of a small town diner. She honed in on the gossip that unfortunately takes over work and the struggle of living off minimum wage. Her writing really captured how tiresome and overbearing it is to keep up with the economy and with a life that is trying to be lived.
