As I proposed in one of my articles, some agents, who know full well what it's like to make cold-calls because they have done it themselves, usually take these calls with grace, tolerance, and kindness, much like the ex-waiter or waitress becomes some of the best of future tippers.

I'm just repeating what I heard from taxi drivers, Lyft Drivers, Hotel managers, Waitresses, Bartenders, mall workers, etc.

I feel your pain.I’m a female and new to REI as a business.However, I’ve always handled contractors for my primary residence, and I’ve worked in several industries - industrial chemical sales, bartending/waitressing, and I’m now I am a chemist with a PhD.All that to tell you that male chauvinism is rampant anywhere you go.

One of the waitresses was looking for a new residence and one of the people from the group vouched for her.  

I have $30,000 saved up and work a waitress in Toronto.

In the past few months I've seen both Waitress and Hamilton at the Fischer, and 2 Tiger games (painful as they were).I have multiple REI friends that have been both successful, and not successful in Detroit. 

@JD Martin I see where you are coming from 😂though having worked in restaurants for years - if you are slick with the waitress - you can make this situation happen seamlessly.

Two people working a waitress/waiter job could afford $1,400 a month.

In real life most of the celebs are not living that way.I get more jollies these days giving a big tip to a waiter or waitress or the car wash person as I know it makes their week.

"I always just cash my check, don't get it deposited" actually means "I only do things under the table, no-- I don't have a stable job"-- (exceptions obviously for hairstylists/waitresses/service industry-- all of those would still have a small pay check showing the hours)  Google should really do a real life screening translator to help people screen.
