What do you need to do to be a server / waitstaff? How do you do it?

Question

What is the procedure? Things that all the training courses will say? Too curious about it to wait until the class at my new job.

Answer 1

Well, you gotta try it to find out. You will learn on the job!

Answer 2

Bring your drinks quickly is a good one. I went out yesterday, and the waiter took our drink order...literally 15-20 minutes later, I had to get up and go ask where our waiter was and order my drink again from someone else.

Also, make sure that you are cheerful, but not overly cheerful...have you seen the movie "office space"? You dont wanna be the waiter in that movie...
