In my work there are a lot of business trips, and what I hate about my job is eating alone. It always makes me feel lonely to see others laughing and talking. So, it was a better choice for me to have room service.
However, after enjoying room service for days at a hotel in Houston, I needed to get out of my room. Though the restaurant opened at 7:00, I arrived at 6:30. The waiter at the front desk made a comment about my “being there really early”. I explained my dislike of eating alone in restaurants. He then seated me at a lovely table and asked me whether I would mind if he sat down with me for a while.
How delighted I was! He sat and chatted with me about his career dreams and the difficulty of being at work on nights, weekends and holidays. He said he hadn’t enough time to be with his family. After 20 minutes, he saw some customers at the front desk and excused himself. I noticed that he stopped in the kitchen for a moment before he went to the front desk.
Then one after another waiter came out of the kitchen and had a wonderful chat with me. That night, three other waiters, even the cook, had come out of the kitchen and sat with me! About one hour later when I asked for my bill, all the people who had sat down with me came over in a big group to my table, and presented me with a red rose. And I was moved to tears! What had begun as a lonely night ended up as a beautiful experience.
