Some years ago there was a push to get away from using the words
"waiter"
and "waitress," presumedly because "waitress" was considered sexist. So
we
instead got terms like "wait staff," "servers," and the rarely-used but
still funny, "waitron."



I always call them a wait person.


Why is no one surprised at that?



You left off the "where's my f*ckin eggs" part....
