This wasn't at all what I expected. I was expecting something like Kitchen Confidential. The author accurately reports what it's like to wait tables, but I kept feeling that she did not trust, or like, us, her readers. She would start to let you in ... and then look away, change the subject. But the book is true, and truest of all is that so many of us are waiting - waiting for our "real" lives to start.
