on the job.
he doesn't know the menu.
he doesn't know
what Tanqueray is.
he doesn't know if there
are any oysters
in the kitchen.
they haven't given him
his apron yet.
his hands are shaking.
his eyes are big and full
of fright.
he spills the drinks,
drops the food.
sneezes in our direction.
help is hard to find,
but still you leave him
a healthy tip.
day one of anything is hard.
