Abstract:
This study aimed to analyze the multimodal communication of waiters and waitresses at three restaurants in Tabanan, Bali Province, in applying higher-level actions in serving foreign guests and investigating the functions of the higher-level actions of waiters and waitresses in serving the foreign guests. This study used theories proposed by Fishman (1972) cited in Suandi & Indriani (2016) on functions of using verbal and nonverbal communication, Krees and Van Leewuen 2006) on multimodal communication, and Norris (2004) on higher-level actions. The subjects of this study were four waiters and two waitresses who were working at three different restaurants in Tabanan regency. The results of this study showed that in each conversation, there were many sequences of higher-level actions used by waiters or waitresses to serve the foreign guests. The waiters and waitresses used a sequence of modes alternately or simultaneously in their higher-level actions, depending on the situation. The functions of waiters or waitresses’ higher-level actions in serving foreign guests made their messages clearer to foreign guests, and this made the waiters or waitresses’ messages more believable to the foreign guests.

Abstract:
The objectives of the study were to (a) investigate college students' perceived importance of occupational attributes related to the work of salespersons, clerks, and waiters/waitresses, jobs which students themselves often hold, and (b) explore the perceived role of appropriate dress in enhancement of the perception of occupational attributes associated with these occupations. Statistical analyses of the data from 134 men and 202 women supported the notion that the importance students placed on perceived occupational attributes increased as perceived job status increased; expectations for salesperson were higher than those for clerk or waiter/waitress. The results also support the notion that appropriate dress often enhances perception of occupational attributes and especially reflects the workers' perceived professionalism, intelligence, and competence.

Abstract:
The following collection represents the critical and creative work produced during my doctoral program in English. The dissertation consists of Part I, a critical preface, and Part II, a collection of seven short stories and two nonfiction essays. Part I, which contains the critical preface entitled "What to Say and How to Say It," examines the role of voice in discussions of contemporary literature. The critical preface presents a definition of voice and identifies examples of voice-driven writing in contemporary literature, particularly from the work of Mary Robison, Dorothy Allison, and Kathy Acker. In addition, the critical preface also discusses how the use of flavor, tone, and content contribute to voice, both in work of famous authors and in my own writing. In Part II of my dissertation, I present the creative portion of my work. Part II contains seven works of short fiction, titled "Among Waitresses," "The Lion Tamer," "Restoration Services," "Hospitality," "Blood Relation," "Managerial Timber," and "Velma A Cappella." Each work develops a voice-driven narrative through the use of flavor, tone, and content. Also, two nonfiction essays, titled "Fentanyl and Happy Meals" and "Tracks," close out the collection. "Fentanyl and Happy Meals" describes the impact of methamphetamine addiction on family relationships, while "Tracks" focuses on the degradation of the natural world by human waste and other forms of pollution. In total, this collection demonstrates my approach to both scholarly and creative writing, and I am grateful for the University of North Texas for the opportunity to develop academically and achieve my goals.

Abstract:
AbstractThis paper explores the emerging role of Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) in the hospitality industry. BCI technology allows users to control devices with their thoughts, potentially transforming guest experiences. The study investigates how guests perceive BCI-enhanced experiences compared to traditional ones. Drawing from service and human-computer interaction literature, the paper conducts a quasi-field pre-study, where participants interact with a BCI-equipped waitress. Surprisingly, participants perceived the BCI-equipped waitress as superior and warmer, resulting in an improved service experience.The research contributes in two ways: it advances understanding of how people perceive BCI-augmented interactions in hospitality and explores the use of BCIs in addressing service failures, improving efficiency in handling customer complaints. The paper outlines plans for larger-scale field studies and online experiments across different hospitality contexts. This research offers insights into the evolving landscape of human-computer interaction in hospitality, with practical implications for the industry’s future.

Abstract Rock bands have been an important part of Liverpool’s culture and identity since the I 95os. It is impossible to determine the exact number of bands on Merseyside, but a survey conducted for the Liverpool Echo early in I980 discovered the existence of more than one thousand. When I first arrived in Liverpool in I 985 full of strategies on how to seek out bands and establish contacts in the music world, I found myself immersed in an overwhelmingly musical environment where many people seemed either to be in a band themselves or to know someone who was in a band, and where many of those not in bands spent much of their time talking of forming or joining one. I learnt about bands from taxi-drivers, hairdressers, waitresses and waiters; and in cafes and bars conversation on bands could be overheard.

Abstract:
As labor unionism was on the rise in Tampico and throughout the country, there were women who chose not to join unions or abandoned them altogether. Chapter 5 examines this discrepancy in what became known as the “free waitress movement,” which included over two hundred waitresses who chose to leave their union, claiming that unions were “better off left to the men.” These waitresses organized, but they did so emphasizing mutualism. As the chapter shows, ideas about morality and sexuality coupled with the state’s expansion of a prostitution tolerance zone (a direct consequence of the rise of the oil industry) had a profound effect on the way in which waitresses were perceived and controlled by the local mixed-sex labor union. Ultimately, the free waitress movement was an anarchist expression and sheds light on how state discourse on labor rights, ideas about gender and sexuality, and questions about women’s place on a more global scale could differ sharply from women’s own localized ideas about their place in labor.
