I love me some Waffle House. I first discovered Waffle House when I lived in Virginia when I was in the military.
I lived within walking distance, so walking to Waffle House for dinner almost became part of my weekly exercise routine.
I gained so much weight as a result of that place that I actually lost twenty pounds after I got out of the military and moved back up north for a while simply because I did not have access to Waffle House.
The wait staff is pretty much and friendly the majority of the time.
Sure, you might catch a stray from someone who has had to deal with too much crap on a given day, but for the most part it’s good folks all the way around there.
One thing that you get from people working at Waffle House is that they are hardworking. It takes a lot to be in the service industry, and a lot of times it is the only job that people can get.
Doesn’t make it any less honorable, any honest work is honorable work, whether you are the CEO of a Fortune 500 company or a Waffle House waitress.
People from all walks of life eat there. You’ll see all kinds of people in Waffle House. A lot of times you might bump into a member of the clergy.
Take for example the case of Bishop Eusebio Phelps. He went into a Waffle House one day not that long ago and he was served by a young lady named Hannah Hill, a waitress who was several months pregnant.
He gave Hannah a generous tip of forty dollars, but being a man of the cloth after he left he thought to himself that there had to be more that he could do for the young lady.
So he organized some folks, and managed to come up with around twelve thousand dollars in donations for Hannah and her baby.
Hannah was later interviewed and said it was the most unexpected thing that something like this would happen to her.
It just goes to show you that there are good people everywhere, you just have to look for them.
