This day is meant to value the importance of a good waiter or waitress. When you go out to eat, they represent the restaurant, and are all the difference between a good and bad experience. You already recognize your waiters and waitresses every time you go to a restaurant. That recognition comes in the form of a tip. You can recognize your waiters and waitresses on National waiters and waitresses Day by giving them a little something extra. Many people forget this day, to remember they can wear a wristband.
