Talk:Busboy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Busboys don't really exist in Britain, because the waiter clears the table. 81.158.1.246 00:21, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

I was about to say the same. Also, I think that this article is really too specific to generalise - very large amounts of it (e.g. precise duties in different kinds of restaurant, proportions of tips) are clearly specific to one culture.

I think I'll be bold and mark this as "in North America...". If anyone else wants to argue that this article does represent a global perspective they are welcome to. TSP 12:52, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Etimology?
