Does waiting tables and having sex with strangers feel similar to you? These jobs aren’t comparable from a psychological standpoint. I never heard that it’s common for waiters to be substance users or have PTSD.

Weirdly enough, restaurant workers are some of the highest substance users group. A Google search on this subject is quite surprising.

It's not even close to sex workers which have the highest amount of substance abuse among all professions.
