"Busgirl" is an outdated and often considered offensive term for a female worker in a restaurant who performs tasks like clearing tables, washing dishes, and assisting waitstaff.
While the term "busgirl" was once commonly used, it has largely fallen out of favor due to its gendered nature and association with lower-level jobs.
Here are some alternative terms that are more appropriate and respectful:
- Busser
- Food Runner
- Dining Room Attendant
- Assistant Server
Using these more inclusive terms reflects a shift towards gender-neutral language and recognizes the important role that these workers play in the restaurant industry.
