Waiters and Accents

Don't you just love the waiters who are smiley and fun and you can't understand a single word they say?

I have no intention of being rude but when they have these really strong accents that are hard enough to understand by themselves, let alone under the ridiculously loud music they always play in restaurants, it is very difficult.

And I know its their job and they can't help their accents because everyone has accents, dependent on where they grew up. And unbeknown to me, even I have an accent, just not one that I would recognise as an accent because I live with it.

But it does make me giggle a little when it you're trying to order and they repeat your meal back to you and you just think to yourself  'I have no idea what you just said but' "yeah that's my order" 'and I hope its right'...

Then your food comes and its correct and you have the greatest admiration for them because, in your eyes, they can basically speak two languages.

Just a little thought!
