As long as they treat the waiters and other people in the restaurant with respect and pay the bill every single guest receives the best service possible.•CrazyWaiter is energetic, friendly and charismatic. He has a positive attitude and likes his job. He dances, sings and makes jokes. He uses several drama- and improvisationtechniques to amuse his guests.•CrazyWaiter knows that he has a lot of qualities and strenghts, but is also aware of all the defaults he has and tries to adapt to soften the weaknesses. He takes responsibility for every error and stupidity he makes. He shares successes with those around him. Complaints are taken seriously and used as input for improvement.•Development is an ongoing process. It's all about being a better personality, know how to do things well and knowing more. He wants to be within the best 10-20% of his peer group. He keeps studying on what he can improve on these three things and tries to widen his knowledge about products and servicequality.

He doesn't steal (in the most wide sense of the word) from guests, the company he works for or his colleagues. Food, drinks and goods (possibly) destined for guests are not to be consumed or used. Confidentiality is something normal, never he names, tweets or talks (negatively) about his (famous) guests.•CrazyWaiter knows he's not alone on the world which he lends from his (future) children. So he does as much as charity as possible and acts the most sustainable way possible.•CrazyWaiter never hints on tips. He never does something more (or less) because there are possible tips involved. (FYI In France the service is included, the fixed salary is something above social minimum and tips is extra income but not necessary to surive)
