Obviously you've never worked in a restaurant. The class structure
within the establishment is considerably more rigid than that between
the wait staff and the public.

Well, I don't know how Marco meant it but I'm seeing waiters or servers
standing at the periphery of an event, at the beck and call of rich white
folks. They're far enough away that they won't be conspicuous but close enough
to immediately serve their masters.
The body language is awkward, arms folded behind their back. Even at that it
looks like the fellow on the left is tense, arms and hands twisted, like a
coiled spring, as if he wants to scream out in anger, demanding respect.
Meanwhile the rich folk are oblivious. They take no notice of "the staff"
unless of course they need something.
I would think working in such a place is very humiliating no matter what the
pay. If there ever were a revolution I'd expect him to be at the forefront.
Of course maybe I have it all wrong but that's what I feel when I look at the
title and photo together.
Cheers,

Marco,
Please excuse my ignorance - but I am not getting this title.
I suspect it might have some reference that I am missing. So, I am
intrigued what it was.
