Just a question

"The simple answer is you are not going to be able to do it"

Thank you Shortwiner. I couldn't have said it better. How things are said vs. actual content is a big deal. While Brom's tone was condescending, I understood what was being said. I realize I have alot to learn, and I realize it is not going to happen overnight, or even before I start working. Thanks to the helpful support I've received on this board, and from my friends, I feel like I have gone from "I like this wine" to "I like this wine because..." Wine knowledge isn't everything when it comes to the restaurant business. Having people skills is what makes a waiter successful in the first place. And no, I'm not having one to two bottles a day. I wouldn't get out of bed until noon each day if that was the case. I'll let you in on a little secret. This new job is so important to me because I would be making enough money to quit my two jobs and stay home with my daughter and focus on my studies more. THAT is why my hunger for knowledge has been somewhat accelerated. All of that aside, Happy Halloween everyone. I'll be celebrating with a Barelli Creek Zinfandel.
