My musings, my rambles and I welcome you. |
| I saw the Today show today and the Waiter finally revealed himself. Steve Dublanica is the author of Waiter Rant which is a blog about his frustrations from his job and his customers. Its been so successful that he has now published a book about his musings. I love his site and have been a reader for several years. Here is the link http://waiterrant.net/ Its not a vanity project when the Today show calls. And he has changed how many people tip and view their dining experience. That is an effective blog and the power of the internet. He is of course who we all want to be when we grow up. Very few bloggers make the jump to real fame and literacy. I remember a blogger who was cooking Julia Child for 365 days just to see if she could. She got a book deal but the reviews were not so good. I never read her blog but the book was ok. One critic complained that is read like a blog. Well duh! I thought at the time. But The Waiter (its hard to call him Steve) had a voice and developed his writing style over several years. I expect his book today. Anyway, I want to be him when I grow up. I certainly have all the ingredients high pressure, frustrating job and blog. It remains to be seen if I have any voice or style. |
