One of the servers complained to the boss that she hadn't been sat in 45 minutes...everyone was mad at me, and the boss cussed me out in front of everyone.
I quit the next day. Haven't worked on 13 months, because I seriously don't think I can remember new information. It's scary not knowing what's going on.

I hope you overcome the shame you seem to have felt when you had your "oops" moment at work, and that you're back on track
I'll bet the person who got all the customers wasn't really complaining when the tips started rolling in. LOL.

Learning new information and/or retaining that information is hard for many of us. For me it is more frustrating than scary. I work on it everyday just like regular exercise. Prevention. com has some great brain games. I spend at least 15 minutes a day working on those games.
