They call them all "waitpersons" now, or if that's too clumsy, they call them "servers". I don't. It's either a waiter or a waitress. And if that offend those present, tough ****. Anything polite to get their attention. "Waiter" "Waitress" "Garcon" "Miss" "Mister" "Honey" "Doll" "Friend" "Pal" "Joe" "Mac" "Bub" Depends how you say it. And a smile can erase misinterpretation. The biggest politeness is in the tip. But if you have to actually think about how to address somebody, you've probably already lost the PC battle. --Vic How about jerk-off.... -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |
