Well, I've got some success with job searching. I left a CV at the American sportsbar in town and the called me back the next day. I went in for a short interview. And they gave me a trial day for this coming Thursday evening. If I do well I can work that entire weekend and the job has the chance of becoming a full time job if I want it to be and I'm good at what I do.
But, I need some more Vocab suitable for eating out. What people say when you arrive there, when they give you the menu, if they ask you how you're doing or whatever else! If anyone wants to help, please go for it! I could use all the help I can get. Dialogues, phrases, words! Whatever! I really hope I get this job! But even if I don't, there are more bars in town, and always more places to try to find work. Heck, the video game place in town is advertising and wants woman applicants. I couldn't really study while working there, but it might be fun too.

Ooooh, yay for you! That's one of my favorite places to eat (though the budget doesn't allow for it often). I hope the try-out goes well for you!
Lucky for you, waitstaff tend not to be too chatty in Sweden! For the most part, all you need to do is ask how many are in the party, seat them, and hand over the menus. I think if you started asking people how they were doing, etc., all you'd get is a bunch of confused -- maybe even suspicious -- looks.
I left you a PM over at Amerikanska earlier today inviting you out for fika tomorrow (Friday) afternoon -- let me know if you can make it!
