Waiting for Secret Reviewer, Waiters Ignore Ordinary-Looking Woman Unaware It Is Her – Story of the Day

Jake worked as a waiter at a restaurant. One day, their restaurant was under review by a mysterious critic, and his boss ordered all attention to go to the critic. Jake, however, continued to serve whatever customer needed help, and this served him well in the end.

Jake was an aspiring chef who worked as a waiter at a local restaurant. Finding a job in the kitchen had been difficult, so he figured he’d find whatever job he could in a restaurant and work his way from there.

While waiting tables wasn’t what he wanted to do in the long run, he grew to love his job. Moreover, he generally loved serving others. That is one of the reasons he was drawn to cooking; it was one of the best ways he could serve his family growing up.

“Well, I’m glad you asked, Jake. I just got word that a secret reviewer will be visiting us. Apparently, he or she is a renowned internet restaurant connoisseur. So, we have to make sure we give it our all today. No slip-ups!” Rob explained.
