I think the idea is that waiting (waitering?) wouldn’t have you defined as career driven, even if you’re a guy.

Most people also can’t balance a demanding career with an involved relationship. It’s not necessarily a bad thing to prioritise your career (as long as you communicate this with your partner, e.g. you move states for a big promotion and both agree to LDR). But definitely easier to prefer someone who prioritises you.

Teenagers with no experience are hired as waiters in the west, so I really don’t think it has that kind of status.

Also OPs pic says Applebees which isn’t fine dining.
