Is there a difference between being a server and a servant?

Answer 1

both are same.
one who serves for a monetary consideration, is a servant.

Answer 2

A server is someone who, for a single task, aids or delivers goods or services to you. Like a waitress, she, for a short period of time, serves you food and stuff.

A servant sounds more like someone who you're either hiring, or forcing, to take care of whatever needs you might have, maybe for a longer period of time. Like a live-in butler that you've hired.

The first is shorter period, and is only paid for a specific task. The second is less temporary, and will generally do whatever you need him or her to do.

Also, I think the first would maybe cater to multiple employers (several people eating at the place where the waitress works, for example), while the second would have a single steady employer (the butler is only paid to assist you).

The first is your server, the second, your servant.

Answer 3

Server sounds temporary while servant sounds permanent. But really, I don't think there is a big difference nor any shame in being either.

Answer 4

Server when you working for pay and servant someone own you

Answer 5

One is what your willing to do (server) and the other (servant) is something you have to do because of circumstances beyond your control.
