Serving is defiantly an art. I can make friends on an aeroplane or a train. Fairly easy going and entertaining and despite not really having that filter that says "dont say that shit man" people tend to like me. Yet I find interacting with people exhausting. So i prefer not to have too many interactions if I can help it. Sometimes go weeks without actually talking to another human! I was a capable server but I hated every second of it.
The best server I ever worked with, was incredibly good. Personable. Absolutely just a delightful person in general. Great with people and really loved the human interactions. Would sit down at the table if there was space. Get to know the guests. Make them feel at home. Give them all the good pointers on the menu and bits to do in the area. Smiling and joking around. Calm cool and collected, never in a rush and always just happy. I must say, i envied her way of being. I think she mastered that Darren Brown mind fuckery where she'd touch you on your arm and you'd just open your wallet.
Dish dog is one of the easiest jobs. Worked several kitchen jobs in restaurants ranging from denny's-like, **** to fine catering. Cratering kitchen work was by far my favorite. Next favorite was dish dogging in a ****. They all loved me and I kicked ass. Bartender kept my whisky glass full all night.
Barbacked a massive wedding in malibu. There were 5 different bars I had to keep stalked. They were all pretty far apart. Was originally hired as server. They asked the servers to move a bunch of alcohol. All the other servers decided it wasn't their job and went and hid. I moved fuck loads of case's of liquor and beer, alone. Then they needed help in the kitchen prepping. I volunteered. Went to the kitchen and sliced lemons and veg with a dull knife. The only extra knife they had that was Kosher. Loved that part. Chatted away with the latinos with my shitty broken-spanish. Guero, rapido! They loved that they had their own white boy dressed in expensive clothes, tie tucked in between his buttons putting on an apron to jokingly boss around. I think they really liked the fact that I didn't think I was better than them or above the work.
The head of that catering wanted to hire me full time when the night was over. He was really impressed. I said yes till I got my check.
Was hired with them telling me I was making 18/hour. They paid me 10/hour. When the called me for the next gig I told them to eat a bag of dicks!
I have to agree, the worst is serving. That shit sucks ass.
There are jews in the world. There are buddhist's. There are hindu's and mormon's and then, there those that worship mohammed but I've never been one of them.
I'm a roman catholic and have been since the day I was born. And the one thing they say about catholic's is, they'll take you as soon as your warm. You don't have to be a six footer. You don't have to have a great brain. You don't have to have any clothes on your, a catholic the moment dad came.
Some of us do have "disabilities" though. My thumbs are big and hit wrong buttons on the phone. Dyslexia fucking sucks. I literally can write a whole word with its letters out of sequence, just did that a few hours ago. ADHD makes proofreading fucking tedious as hell. Often i try my best but sometimes i just cant be bothered.
Over all I agree with you though. It never hurts to have someone tell you that you fucked up. It does give you a chance to learn from your mistakes.
We used to ditch school and go down the block to a diner. We would drink coffee and smoke ciggies. Pretty fucking dumb, I know. Well our history teacher just said fuck it and showed up, right there. We had class, in the diner.
I didn't skip his class much after that. He really cared and was one of the best teachers I ever had!
Every time I hear that my mind wanders back to this.
Kenny wasn't like the other kids.

Girls said yes. But he said no.

Now he's got his own game show.

Every distro has limitations. Arch probably has the least. Every package is the newest possible giving you more options. You have to configure things yourself. Luckily there is no better resource that the arch wiki.
Here is the nvidia arch wiki page for you to look at.
If your looking for an ootb experiance there are easy arch distros like endeavour and garuda. You will still need to get acquainted with the arch wiki and general system maintenance.
It has always been so. When your sitting by the fire and the mind wanders, the days hunt comes crawling through your mind so you speak the story of the brave beast that nearly had you fooled and how thankful you are to have such a bounty. A remembrance of the sacrifice. The life taken so your children can flourish. A lesson for the young. Like a bee dancing in the hive, a tale with purpose.
God is dead. Of his pity for man hath god died. So be thee warned against pity. From where thence there yet cometh unto men a heavy cloud. Verily i understand the weather signs.
But attend also to this word. All great love is above all its pity. For it seeketh to create what is loved.
Myself do I offer unto my love and my neighbor as myself. Such is the language of all creators.
All creators however are hard. Thus spoke Zarathustra.
His job was never to be a public servant. He was always the senator MBNA. Never forget that he promised the people he represents in a closed door fancy plate fundraiser that "nothing will fundamentally change".
It's not about him not doing the job because of ineptitude or incompetence. The people that bankrolled him got everything they paid for.
