In our language the term young man enjoys a certainly widespread use and can be used both to refer to a young individual, more precisely to one who has already passed childhood but who still cannot be considered an adult.
And due to its transitive nature, the word is also used to refer to everything that belongs to or is associated with youth: young years, young times, among others. “A young man as young as you cannot be doing such heavy jobs.”

And on the other hand, we use the word to call that individual who works professionally serving tables, a bar counter, restaurant, cafeteria, among other gastronomic establishments. “The waiter who served us last night was very attentive, he is the best in the restaurant”
Now, without a doubt, the second reference is the one that is most popular for us and the one that is most used in these times. The other use has become somewhat obsolete, it was a more common use in times past. Our grandmothers used to speak in terms of handsome men.
Main tasks of a waiter
So, the waiter, also called as a waiter and waiter, is that person who displays the job of serving customers, diners in a gastronomic establishment such as restaurants, bars, or failing that, in hotels.
Once the client(s) are at the table, the waiter approaches, welcomes them and offers them the menu of the place. Then, you must take care of taking the order from them, both in terms of chosen dishes and also in terms of drinks.
Other tasks that the waiter performs are collecting the dishes once the customers have finished eating, in order to serve them the second course or dessert, or when they leave the establishment.
The waiters are usually dressed in a white shirt and black pants and a black bow tie, however, there are also establishments that design special clothing for their waiters that has nothing to do with what is described.
The tip, a reward for the attention of the waiter
If the waiter’s attention was good, it is common for the client to leave a tip on the table or in the folder in which the bill is delivered, which is normally established and will be 10% of the consumption, although, as usual is that the client leaves an amount according to his capacity, some leave more, others less and some others nothing.
The tip turns out to be very important for the waiters since it is a very important additional income, in addition to their salaries, and with which they can make income differences.
