Did you know that being a waiter is actually a very dangerous job? Not convinced? Read on.
1. The Bell Ringing Sydrome (BRS)
Recently, loads of us (waiters) have gone to see the company's doctor, and have been diagnosed as having caught the Bell Ringing Syndrome, or else, better known the BPS. Let me explain why the disease is so contagious. When the food's ready, the chefs ring the bell. When the bill's ready, the cashier rings the bell. When the drinks are ready, the bar girl (ie. the drink-maker. duh!) rings the bell. When the customer needs attention, they ring the bell. It becomes so bad that we don't even know who rang which bell! If you have the following listed symtoms, please consult a doctor asap. First, you think that any bell rung (including temples and churches) is a noise made to catch your attention. Second, you can differentiate among 10 bells which is the one that sounded. And lastly, you bring a bell around to get peoples' attention instead of calling out to them.
2. Danger of Becoming a Murderer
Pouring sky water (refer first entry) on customers is a sin, and pouring a whole claypot of chicken gravy and the chicken is nothing short of murder. Usually under these circumstances, a typical Singaporean would have three options. First, he could sue me. Second, he could employ a lawyer and sue me. Third, he could employ a lawyer, sue me, and the whole restaurant and its staff. Lucky for me, he wasn't that type lor. He didn't make much of a fuss, but boy, did his girl look ready to pour her pasta on me!
