No More Bistro

December 20th, 2006 by Waiter

I am no longer working at The Bistro.

Ever since the book deal was announced in August I felt my time at The Bistro was limited. To be honest, I was getting sick of the place and they were getting sick of me. My stress levels were going through the roof and my patience was running out.� Besides, after almost seven years, it was time for a change.

My last day was several weeks ago. I decided not to write about it on my blog for my own well being. I needed to give myself some space. My last day was full of anger and bitterness. It took a while to get my mind around what I was feeling. I needed time to put my emotions into perspective. As each day passes I realize no longer working at The Bistro is a good thing.

Waiter Rant will continue. I will get a restaurant job somewhere else. I will continue to blog about the food service industry.� Come to think of it, it’ll be interesting to write about being the new guy at another restaurant. In the meantime I’m busy writing my book. That consumes a lot of time and energy.

I want to extend my sincerest Holiday Wishes to my former waiter colleagues. To the bus people and the kitchen staff you guys are the best! Feliz Navidad y Feliz Ano Nuevo!

I want to thank all the readers who made Waiter Rant such a success in 2006. Without you guys none of the good fortune I experienced this year would have happened. Thanks for reading and letting me share my stories with you.�

Now I’m going to enjoy Christmas and New Years as a civilian for the first time since 1999! That’s gonna feel so weird!

Merry Christmas everyone.

I’ll be back soon.

    哦，允许我用我们国家的文字表达一下我作为中国人看到这本书的感受！我花了两天的时间，总的来说基本是6个小时看完的，我太喜欢这本书了。亲爱的STVEN，我非常期待您下一部的小说，你看你的书都跑到遥远的中国来了，希望有空到上海世博会来看看，如果来我一定希望与您会个面，你瞧，我看完后马上发了消息给一个朋友希望他能改成剧本做成话剧，哦！我喜欢你写的故事，温情而不滥情！（不好意思，如果您还上您的网站看看留言，您得找个翻译，哈哈，虽然我英文还行）

    来着中国的读者
