Random Scrap:

I rode back to the restaurant a few days later. It was empty this time but the front door was opened. The inside was much bigger than what I expected. I noticed a man in a white outfit sitting at the bar. I asked for a manager and he replied that he could probably help me. I explained that I was here to study, that I worked hard and was desperately looking for a job as a waiter. Surprisingly, rather than just sending me away he asked about my current place of work. Brian, his name was engraved on his pocket, had heard about Athena's. After making some jokes about Greek food he explained that as the chef he was not in charge of the the floor but there was an opening in the kitchen. His current 'expeditor' was getting busy and they were looking for an assistant. I was not quite clear what my responsibilities were going to be but when I heard I would be getting a share of tips from ALL of the waiters I immediately said yes. I was supposed to report back on Friday at 6pm wearing a white shirt, black shoes and black pants.
