Were any of y'all waitresses while pregnant? Did you have restrictions? I got to work at 11 and was supposed to be off by 4, but they made me work til 830. I haven't told them yet because it's soon, but I wasn't able to eat all day until 8pm due to being so busy and it's just exhausting.. I have to eat to have energy! Also lifting trays, is that safe?
I work in a warehouse and with my last I didn't restrict myself unless I knew I couldn't handle it.. I felt good my entire pregnancy with no complications.. my job never restricted me either
so now with my 4th pregnancy.. same job. .. I still do everything I did before. lifting, squating.. I guess if you feel like you cannot handle it talk with your doctor and have them write you a doctor's note with the restrictions you need.
My grandma was a waitress when she was pregnant. The restaurant had a policy where you couldn't work after 4 months but she kept it a secret and kept working until 7 months
One thing I will recommend is good comfy shoes cause your feel will swell and it's uncomfortable
I'm a waitress and currently 25 weeks prego. If I start getting tired I just go sit in the bathroom to regain my strength or have a snack. Nothing long just a regroup moment.
but you should also be honest with your supervisor about your situation .. they cannot fire you for being pregnant but they can be accommodating
