❣️Friday confession:

Your waitress probably knows more about you than you realize. 😂🧾🗂️

Your coffee order. Your breakfast order. Your hobbies & how much you love your job. Your kids. Your grandkids. Where you went on vacation. And probably a few stories we won’t repeat. 🥓👩🏼‍🤝‍👨🏻🏖️

But honestly? That’s one of our favorite parts of this job. 💗🥹

What happens over coffee stays over coffee. ☕️🙃

Now tell us something about YOU we don’t know. 👀⬇️

Good morning, Tuesday! 😏✌️

The lights are on, the coffee’s brewing. Some of us are awake. Some of us are just here. 🤷‍♀️ ☕️ 🍳

Either way, it’s looking like a pretty good day. 😎🌤️
