How to walk with several plates?

Question

How do you walk with several plates when you are working as a waitress in a restaurant? Any tips for keeping balance and making sure the plates won't come off?

Answer 1

You have to utilize each and every finger you have as well as have a strong hand!  I prefer the use of a large tray myself.  I worked at Hard Rock Cafe where they didn't use trays and at most, I could only carry four plates.  You just have to practice (preferably at home) until you find a way that is comfortable for you!  Good luck!

Answer 2

while i can say to wal kslow but not that slow and watch out for little kids because the like to run around the restaraunt and watch here you are going and when you want to open a door use your back it is easier.
