Overview
Employees at a Bennigan’s-like restaurant (called, creatively enough, Shenanigan’s), kill time before their real lives get started. But while they wait, they’ll have to deal with picky customers who want their steak cooked to order and enthusiastic managers who want to build the perfect wait staff. Luckily, these employees have effective revenge tactics.

Viewing Notes
From a co-worker’s recommendation I grabbed Waiting… from the library and it’s exactly what I expected; a raunchy comedic look at the chain restaurant business. Restaurant in the film is adequately labeled “Shenanigans” (think TGI Fridays) and features a staff of in-crowd names: Ryan Reynolds, Anna Faris, Justin Long, Luis Guzman, et al. Made back in 2004 but released in 2005, it’s not bad for a sleazebag comedy altho not the stuff you wanna see if you eat out a lot (me).
