I started to work in this restaurant last week, first I wanted to be a waiter but now I realized that I am not a waiter however i am busboy. How can I reach server position. what experiences do i need? I am so social and know how to treat customers well. What do i need to learn in the restaurant?

If you can breathe you can be a waiter. Just have confidence when you interview.

It depends on where you are...most places though need you to be certified to serve drinks. In Ontario it is known as your smartserve.
I know that this is a pretty important thing to have.
