    Funny how you read stuff

    1. Read the post from the M.D. about waitperson, think “Is this the bad part?”
    2. Read the “No” …
    3. Read the title about empathy.
    4. Re-read both the M.D. post and “No”, aaah now I got it 💡

      “Waitperson” is kinda lame too, tho. Call them “waiters” ffs.

      When we stopped calling female actors “actresses” we didn’t start calling them “actpersons”.

      YES totally understandable. That’s why I did the title like how it is, or people would (understandably) make the awful mistaken conclusion I think Doris is cool or something.
