I think we are reading this differently. I'm more flustered at the idea of "serving is for the underedcuated and unskilled". I'd love to see Martha's Vineyard and Little Palm Island be staffed with high school students and this guy shows up for a nice dinner. Maybe it takes more for someone like him to understand there is a large difference between TGI-Fridays and some of the places that only hire seasoned pro's who have extensive education on food and beverage.
I have a feeling the guy that posted that was talking about your average TGI Friday server and not a restaurant that represents less than 1% of the business.
I have a corporate card and travel for business fairly often. It goes without saying that I've ate at restaurants where serving was an actual skill and people deserved a decent income. That's a small fraction of the restaurant world though.

Florida Resort - Florida Keys Beach Resort & Spa - Luxury Private Island Retreat - This is how I paid for college without loans and without government aid due to my lack of dark skin. Not a bad place to work for an undereducated, unskilled piece of **** like myself.
Edit: come one guys, I'm running out of pics

Along time ago, when the 288GTO was pretty new,and not US-legal, I got behind one in traffic in Danbury, CT. Thought it was a modded 328 at first. Bob Sharp had the local Ferrari dealership at the time, so I assumed it was Scott. When I realized what it was, I drove right up his tailpipes. My girlfriend was yelling at me for being a douchebag, but when we hit a clear stretch on I-84, I opened all the windows to hear him blow off the ******* in the mirror.
Made an excellent mechanical shriek, got small VERY quickly.

Probably autocorrect on an iPhone.
Because it is. You don't need a college degree to be moderately attentive, memorize a menu and give my order to the cook (who is the real talent in the restaurant yet I don't tip them). And somehow doing that for a handful of people means you deserve $20+/hour?
I didn't get that vibe from him. What I took away from his statement was he viewed a waiter as similar to a cashier at Target: an entry level job for someone who doesn't have any other skills to offer. The idea that a person with that position expects a 15% tip for simply doing their job is ridiculous but it is standard in this country so we all have to play along. (although I did leave a sub 15% tip last week for the girl who was the worst server I've had in years)

Ok, I do not want to explain FULLY how I ended up on the following ebay store.
All I am willing to say about it was that size was a critical factor in my pending purchase.
But check out the sweet combination of products this fantastic store has to offer!
