16、by my occupation, that my profession is a gauge(标准) people use to see how smart or talented I am.

21、that they never used with me.My job title made people treat me with courtesy. So it was a shock to return to the restaurant industry.It s no secret that there s a lot to put up with when waiting tables, and fortunately, much of it can be easily forgotten when you pocket the tips.
