Im looking into applying at a small cafe as a waitress. Im sixteen and they will hire a sixteen year old. But I have never worked before and no nothing really about being waitress really. I am applying also for a bussing job at another restaraunt..Do you think that would be better to start? And will a restaraunt take time to train a new waitress or expect me to know what to do going in...? I have nightmares of messing up a ton of orders on my first day if I get hired or somthing....Any advice? What do you think?

I think you would be a great waitress. Write things down and always smile. Remember that we have all made mistakes and just relax. The people eating there realize that people make mistakes so if you make one just apologize, smile, and move on doing your best not to make another.

I did. I think it teaches how how to manage things and time & also teaches you how to save. I opened my first bank account when I was doing that, and it really tought me how to manage my money (tips) which was helpful when I got older to know not to just spend money. I think working in the food industry is a good first job.

Most restaurants will start you out as a hostess before waiting tables if you have no experience. You'll learn as you go and be able to move to serving when you're ready and a position is available.
