Officially a Server

I am officially a server again! And it feels pretty good. I had my first solo shift last night.

A few of the things I appreciated:

• The drive to work, where I cross a bridge and see water and boats. (Florida’s coast is lined with barrier islands. So unlike the Jersey shore, where you’re at the beach once you’re at the coast, in Florida, you need to cross a bridge to get to the barrier island and then get to the beach.)
• My first table complimented my smile and my positivity.
• Kindness. Everyone at my tables and on staff were super kind.
• The drive home. It’s nice enough at 10 pm still to open my sun roof, through which I had a nice view of the stars. I spotted Pleiades and Cassiopeia.
• My mom. She just had to take a picture of me as I was heading to work. Then she wanted to hear all about my night when I got home.
