It's off to work I go

I'm getting ready to head off to my second job as a waitress.  It's a far cry from my week's desk work, and while I don't always relish the six-day work week, I do love the physicality of waiting tables.  

I also enjoy meeting so many people -- it puts me in contact with a huge range of people that I'd never encounter so directly anywhere else.  

And there's something so basic about serving people food and drink.  Maybe it sounds funny, but I think there's honor in serving something vital to life (even if it's a biiiig stretch calling hipster mac-n-cheese and high-end meatloaf "vital to life").
