Friday Faves: Confessions of a College Cocktail Waitress

No college girls wants to give up her nights out. So I had that “absolutely not” mentality when I began turning my college town upside down looking for a job.  Who wants to be folding clothes amidst an asthma-inducing Abercrombie cologne cloud late into the evening when your girls are out at $1 pitcher night? Nobody.

That’s why I became a cocktail waitress.

sarah larson george clooneyYou know how when you’re working your waitress shift, some single, sexy millionaire famous guy picks you up and makes you his girlfriend?

Then he takes you on the red carpets and introduces you to all his hot, famous friends and takes you on vacations around the world and stuff?
