The Rules of Serving is an ongoing series published at Tip²: Tips For Improving Your Tips .  The simplest way to proceed is to start with the first ten rules and then work through each one of them. I believe these are ten fundamental rules that all servers should understand to be successful. These are the truths I have discerned over my 16 years in the hospitality and discussing with fellow severs with decades of combined experience. Understanding these laws will save you tremendous amounts of stress and help you avoid common mistakes made by newer servers. Links to each rule and the overview are provided below. I recommend starting with the first post which lists the rules and provides links to the posts explaining each of them. The best way to know when new rules are published is to become a fan of this blog on facebook.
