Average review score: 

One of the BEST server training manuals I've ever used!In the quest to provide my service employees with the BEST tools to do their job, I ran accross "Waiting on America". After reviewing its clear and concise text, I began using it as my primary server training medium. Waiting on America proved to be the difference in both the perception my service employees had regarding their customers and their own personal work ethic. Both vastly improved over a short amount of time. After a few months, I telephoned the author, Mario Ponce, Jr. and ordered additional materials to greater enhance my training. Soon after, Mr Ponce accepted an invitation to speak to my staff in Atlanta, Ga. His overview motivated my staff to greater levels of personal awareness regarding their customers service expectations. They excelled not as an individual, but as a team. When one staff member was in a difficult situation, the others came to their rescue. I personally couldn't have achieved this level of cooperation without "Waiting on America". It truly made the difference in the quality of life of this manager. Mr. Ponce is there every step of the way. Call him, he'll be more than happy to aide you in your situation.
