Waitress at US-Styled Diner
One consequence of the growth of cafes and restaurants in Moscow is that it creates first-time jobs for high school and college students, especially those students from other regions.

She said she hoped to continue her studies and find work in Russia's oil and gad industry.

The other problem she notes are the occasional drunk customers that give her extra attention.
