The Butterfly Circus
Of course, sometimes we're almost like circus artists, but that's not why I posted this film. I know it has nothing to do with our work, but nevertheless I wanted to share it with you because it has everything to do with life in general and it's simply beautiful.
Although I didn't do it always like that, I start to believe that you are the only key to success. Life is what you make of it. This very inspirational film is all about that. You can only be a happy and successful crazy waiter when you believe in yourself and live life in a positive way!
During his travels a showman of a circus discovers a man without limbs at a carnival sideshow. This man is travelling along with the circus and becomes driven to hope against everything he has ever believed.

Do it with Flair!
If you have to do someting, then do it with flair. I posted earlier some flair bartending from TGI Friday's, and above is a video made in a bar at Piazza Baberini in Rome. It seems difficult to master, (and I bet it is) but bartender Chris made an impressive weblog full of instruction video's how to do flair bartending. Worth taking a look at it!

Monkey waiters
I can go back to Holland, when my manager hires these animals. Not that there will be a lot of difference ![]()
Falling out..
Everybody has and knows colleagues who are not that handy with plates, trays and themselves as you are. Once a fellow waiter dropped his tray fully loaded while walking from the beginning to the buffet till the end. We could throw away everything because everything was spoiled with shards. But even that wasn't that dramatic as this poor girl
I don't know if it's real or not. I don't hope so for her

Flairtending is also a speciality for the crazywaiter, but this video gives a new dimension to it. Fake or not, this viral for TGI Friday's is very impressive and above all funny to see!
Thanks friend and fellow crazywaiter Yoan for the video!
Rapping Flight Attendant from Southwest Airlines
Not from the restaurant business but some inspiration from an airline. Apparently at Southwest Airlines they're doing things a little bit differently than the others. Look at enjoy!
Imagine presenting the daily specials like this with your clients as human beatbox. Wouldn't it be cool???

The secret pleasure of Four Seasons
Every waiter knows the secret pleasure of a waiter: hearing something that is not meant for you and taking action on it. Once on a hot day I heard a guest on 3 meters distant saying to a friend "Oh, I would die for a glass of water'". Several seconds later I stood there with it. The water had cost € 1,50 but her face expression was priceless! (and of course you pretend not to see that reaction;))
Four Seasons, a hotel chain with luxury hotels (in Paris they have the fabulous George V) is also listening to her guests even while they're not really talking to them. On Twitter! A guy complained that the music in his room was very dull. I'm sure his face would be priceless when he came back to his room where the housekeeping left a bottle of wine and a kind letter with a list of all the radiostations attached.
Keep the secret pleasure alive! (and enjoy it....)

Handpuppets… without puppets
Hans Teeuwen is a Dutch humorist. Although not my kind of humour, this video (in Dutch, sorry) is funny. And there is some cursing in it, so be warned!
In this video you can see how you can play with no (or little) attributes. I did it once (but I didn't scream and certainly didn't name world's oldest profession!) and everything was laughing.
