Second body paragraph from my essay

The waitresses have emotional life because they emotionally work very hard to satiesfied costumers and managers, because they always think about manager's authority and dealing with different kinds of customers.Such as: mean, generous, greedy, crazy,etc.They always care about what the customers and desires are.To fillfull their desires the waitresses hide their own feelings.For example,Terry Masson in "A Pecking order"states, "When a passenger says something mean, we're supposed to smile and say, I understand you".even when they pinch us or say dirty words..............


I already show my essay to professor that'swhy I think don't need to post any more.

introduction from my essay #3

This is my introduction of essay #3
The essay topic is "Emotional waitress"
Prof. I am not sure about this intro....because this introduction is totally different so can I get feedback?Thanks!
How do you feel if you have to deal with this kind of customer on your eight hours work?
"Miss, can you bring me a glass of water?"
"oh Miss, I need some ketchup on my eggs."
"Can you bring me a hot glass of water?"
"Oh Miss my eggs are too runny.I can't possibly eat this.You'll need to send them back, and make sure my order is right this time.""Well, now this water is too hot.I almost burned my mouth and these breads are over toasted.Get me a warm a glass of water and get me the right toasted bread."
"You expect me to pay full price for this meal?I was served runny eggs and had burned toast.You even almost burned my mouth with extermly hot water.I can;t believe it.
There will certainly be no tip for you, young lady.By the way where is the manager?I need to talk to him."This kind of incident always happens at the restaurants.This shows what an emotional life the waitress has.Working in a service job especially, as an emotional waitress at the resturant means they have to sacrifice compassion to others.The reason they have to sacrifice others is most waitresses paid minimum wages, they have to depend on the tips,and many waitresses have to face sexual harassment at the restaurants by the customers and managers.
