"Yes, we need to recruit a waiter, but there is no candidate yet. You said you have worked in a restaurant?" Mag smiled and nodded. What Amy said was exactly what he thought, but he did not directly agree to let Ya With Bei Mia staying, the restaurant does not need vases and does not have extra people.
"Yes, I have been helping in the kitchen of a restaurant with my mother since I was nine years old. My mother passed away when I was twelve years old, and I have been helping in the kitchen of that restaurant until a few days ago..." Ya Beimia nodded, a little nervous and excited when she heard Mag's question, but her expression slowly turned gloomy after speaking, as if there was something unspeakable hidden in it.
"The work experience is quite rich, but the workload of the waiter I want to recruit now may be relatively heavy. The main job is to receive guests, order food, serve food, clear the table and clean the restaurant. The business hours will be very busy. Are you sure you will Are you qualified?" Mag didn't ask any more questions, looking into Yabei Mia's eyes and asked.
"Reception?" A trace of panic flashed across Yabei Mia's face, but there was also a trace of expectation. For so many years, she has been hiding in the kitchen like an invisible person.
One time, the chef asked her to serve a plate of food to the guests. She served it carefully. When the boss saw it, he angrily knocked a hole in her head with a spoon, causing a lot of blood. That year she She was only thirteen years old, and since then she has never dared to step out of the kitchen during restaurant business hours.
She also wanted to put on clean and beautiful clothes, serve plates of delicacies to the guests with a smile, and quickly clear the table under the admiring eyes of the guests, but these things were simply not enough for her as a half-dragon. If possible, no restaurant would use a half-dragon as a waiter.
"I've never done it before, and if I serve it, I might make the guests unhappy..." Yabei Mia said without confidence.
"If you are worried that the customers will be unhappy because of your identity, this is not a problem in my restaurant. I regard Amy's back as the logo of the restaurant. She is my greatest pride. In my eyes, your There is no difference between Amy's and Amy's racial identity, and it will not be a burden to the restaurant." Mag said with a smile, took a bag of meat buns from the side and gently placed it on the table.
Seeing the girl's low self-esteem, Mag suddenly thought of Amy a few days ago, but Yabei Mia had experienced more, so she was hurt more deeply, which made him feel some compassion.
Yabei Mia looked at Mag with her mouth slightly open. This was the first time she heard such words, the first time someone told her that being a half-dragon was not a problem.
And his eyes fell on the bag on the table. It was the back of a half-elf girl. It was the cute little girl sitting opposite. Mag actually used this as the logo of the restaurant. How bold and adventurous was this? Behavior.
Just two years ago, in Aden Square, a drunken demon destroyed the restaurant because there was an orc waiter in the restaurant. The owner was beaten to a disability and died not long after. A restaurant with a booming business. Just shut down completely.
Although the demon was later punished by the Gray Temple and is still in prison for reform, the spearhead of this incident was aimed at the half-orc waiter.
Almost overnight, all the half-race waiters in Aden Square lost their jobs. Even the cooks like her, who hid in the back kitchen and never saw the light of day, had their wages cut in half, which was not even enough for daily expenses.
And Mag actually used the half-elf's back as the restaurant's logo, and now even said that he didn't mind her identity. This made him feel the greatness of Mag's fatherly love for Amy, and the true respect for half-races like them.
Treating everyone equally is more precious to them than mercy.
"So, what I need to test is whether you have the ability to do this job and the courage to try." Mag continued.
Yabei Mia hesitated for a while, and finally plucked up the courage and nodded: "If possible, I want to give it a try."
"That's right. Father is very easy to talk to. Don't be afraid, sister Mia." Amy encouraged the ugly duckling by grabbing her paws, her face full of expectation. If sister Mia is here, If she works in a restaurant, she will have someone to play with in the future.
"Yeah." Yabei Mia nodded. This was the first time someone encouraged her after her mother passed away, and she felt a little warm in her heart for no reason.
"Very good." Mag also had a smile on his face. He didn't want to give her a job, but wanted her to have the dignity to fight for a job that she was qualified for. This should make her happier. Also become more confident.
"Then let's get started, because there will be a lot of people diners when the restaurant is open. In order to improve efficiency, ordering and serving meals need to be faster. Remembering what each guest ordered and what requirements are the basic requirements. Of course, If you are literate, you can use a notebook to write it down, but I hope this time will be as short as possible." Mag said looking at Yabei Mia.
"My mother taught me how to read when I was a child, and I have a good memory. If I just remember the order of each customer's order, it should be fine." Yabei Mia thought for a moment and nodded.
"Okay, let's try it." Mag didn't expect her to be so confident, but she didn't rush to make a conclusion. She walked to the counter, took out a small notebook and a pen and put them aside, then took four pieces of paper and tore them up. Cut into sixteen small pieces of paper, label them with serial numbers, then write down the needs of two or three guests on each piece of paper, shuffle the sixteen pieces of paper and put them on the sixteen tables.
"The first table at the door is table No. 1, and vertically it is No. 2 and No. 3... The serial number written on the paper is the order of ordering. It has the needs of each guest. I will give you ten minutes, no matter you use The memory is still written in the notebook, remember these things." Mag glanced at the clock on the wall and said: "Start."
Yabei Mia glanced at the banknotes on the table next to her, and walked towards table No. 1 empty-handed without any hesitation.
"That's it." Five minutes later, Yabei Mia stood in front of Mag, with confidence in her eyes.
"Then let's go through the order of ordering." Mag was a little surprised and did not collect the papers. His shorthand ability won the first prize in the competition when he was in junior high school, so he naturally remembered everything he wrote.
"Table No. 3 ordered two meat buns..." Yabei Mia looked at Mag and spoke one order after another in a calm manner. There was a pause in the middle, but she quickly picked up the order, basically smoothly. Finished all orders.
"Father, is everything right?" Amy looked at Mag with curiosity and asked.
Yabei Mia also looked at Mag with some anticipation and nervousness. This was a test, and it was also the first test for her to be respected by others.
