  • What do you do?
    Photo_17_small

    I'm a waitress, it is ok. It is low stress and pays the bills. I am almost on to another career soon but I don't think that that will be my final goal either.

  • Where can I take Dominatrix lessons?

    I was always under the impression that BDSM was the sort of thing that one was involved in because they were already into it before they got a job in the industry. Not the sort of thing that you get job training for.

  • Where's a good place to get bed sheets in Seattle or Seattle area?

    Ross, before you buy anything anywhere else, check out the home department at Ross. It is downstairs. I own several sets of high quality high thread count 100% cotton sheets from Ross that were all very affordable, like $10 for a set.

  • How long does it take you to get over a breakup?

    Perhaps it would help if you defined what it meant to be over it.

    Passive aggressive note passing is lame. Have some balls dude. If you're so good looking and polite and you have a mutual spark like you say you do then just fucking ask her and quit fretting over it like a damn 12 year old girl the week before a Sadie Hawkins dance.

    No, don't pass her a note and then run out the door like you're in junior high. Tell her that you would like to take her out and then give her something that has your information on it so that she can contact you if she is interested.

  • What role did you play in high school?

    High school was 10 years ago, who cares?

    As a server I think it is much more awkward when people who I have waited on approach me outside of work than while I am working. It just seems inappropriate.

    Very well put, though I would add that it doesn't have to be awkward if she says no and he goes in again. There is no shame in asking someone out on a date and if they're taken or even just not interested then there is also no shame in that. I hate it when someone who I have a great rapport with asks me out and I decline and then they can never look me in the eye again or just stop showing up. There is no reason why you can't still be friendly after a request for a date has been declined.

  • So, I'd like advice on asking out a girl.

    As an attractive woman who has been working in the restaurant industry for over five years I have to warn you to proceed here with caution. You don't want to be the guy who asks the girl out when she is working unless you KNOW 110% that she is into you. Otherwise it is just an awkward mess because she is stuck at her hostess station being hit on by a creepy guy who she has to be nice to because she is working. Do you have a friendly rapport built up with her? Does she address you by name? Are you friendly and chatty when you see her? More importantly, is she? Does she recognize you at all when you come in? If the answers to these questions are 'Yes!' then proceed.

    If you're feeling confident, and you need to be, then the next time that you're there be friendly but don't monopolize her time and don't make a big deal out of it. As you leave mention that you would like to take her out (something like "I'd like to take you out sometime if you're interested") and hand her a business card or if you don't have a card a simple note with your name and email and phone number on it. Don't be too silly with the note. I used to have the lovelorn notes written on the backs of receipts and cocktail napkins that were left for me by lonely drunken guys magneted to my fridge for my room mates and guests to laugh at. The ones that got the best response were funny, creative or simple.

    I have gone on dates both casual and romantic with customers and I've even developed close friendships and romantic relationships with people who I met while working, but if you come at me awkwardly or try to take up my whole night while I am trying to do my job or seem desperate or weird or creepy or wait for me outside of my job until I get off of work it's never going to happen and in the latter example, you might get pepper sprayed.
