Waiting Tables in College

Forwarded with subject: college humor

Between her sophomore and junior years at college, my daughter Laurie waited tables at a rather seedy steakhouse. One evening she waited on a well-dressed young couple. In a rather condescending tone, the man asked her, "Have you ever thought of going to college?"

"Actually, I do go to college," Laurie replied.

"Well, I went to Harvard," he said, surveying the restaurant, "and I'd never work in a place like this."

"I go to Vassar," Laurie retorted, "and I'd never eat in a place like this."
