i waitressed for about 15 years...
very, very hard on hands and feet. Also you have to be "nice" to some really picky customers and learn how to balance a tray while dodging children running around.
Usually get paid 1/2 of minimum wage plus tips. Only way to really learn it is to do it (most places have you shadow someone depending on your experience)
Good job when going to school or no other real options or in need of daily cash, but I would never do it again unless I absolutely had to.
Deer and rabbits especially think my garden is an outdoor diner. (sm)
Have tried multiple things, can keep rabbits out of green beans, peas and lettuce until they get larger and not so palatable by using chicken wire bent over the rows and pegged down. The deer seem to prefer to just rip smaller branches off the fruit trees and really seem to hit the melons hard.
One of the things that I have tried and works pretty well for me is Irish Spring tied in the branches of fruit trees. I suppose it is the smell they don't like.
Anything else you come up with, please share.
The produce in the store isn't going to do anything but get higher with strikes, etc.
