It's pretty obvious "Jennifer G" tried waiting tables, and made $15 on a Friday night.

Anyway...

Waiting tables can be a very fun and rewarding job---depending on where you're waiting tables.  I moved from New Jersey to Florida when I turned 18 and it's supported me quite well since.  I now bartend at the same establishment and have enough cash saved to venture off into my own contracting company, which I'll be leaving it for in a short number of weeks.  Sorry to hear your story wasn't as successful, Jennifer G.

How much you make in a shift will vary on how busy it is in YOUR area.  Perkins would be a great place to start, especially since a lot of bigger name restaurant don't like hiring someone with no serving experience.  Apply at a few better places and see if anyone bites.  If not, definitely try out Perkins.

When it comes to finding out a good place to apply, check out the Friday night "hot spots" .. Try to avoid fine dining or 5-star restaurant, as you have a .01% chance of being hired.

AVOID: Places for much older people as well as much younger people.  The less reputable restaurant = less money.  This goes for Denny's, Bob Evans, Waffle House, and sometimes Perkins.

Answer 5

if you are really friendly and encourage customers to buy really expensive dishes, then ur tips will get bigger.  as far as a salary, i have no idea, but waitresses usually make a small amount of money, and they rely on tips.
