Stand-up and Deliver
An onion can make people cry, but there has never been a vegetable invented to make them laugh.
- Will Rogers, comedian, humorist, social commentator, vaudeville performer, and actor. (1879-1935)
Waiter.com delivers food to customers from a variety of restaurants. When he is not working as a Customer Service Representative at Waiter.com, Wes Hofmann works on delivering laughs. Wes Hofmann has been performing stand-up comedy for five years now and has appeared at places like the San Jose Improv, Rooster T. Feathers in Sunnyvale, and Tommy T's in Pleasanton. Waiter.com recently caught up with Wes Hofmann for an exclusive interview about Waiter.com and comedy.
Waiter.com: How did you get into stand-up comedy?
Wes Hofmann: I was involved in my high school's drama department and I was also a bit of a class clown.
Waiter.com: Really? You seem like a shy person.
WH: I wasn't a loud class clown in high school that disrupted class or anything. I often made my jokes only loud enough for one or two other people in class to hear. I was the class clown that wrote a story for Spanish Class about how my teacher got eaten by a dinosaur.
Waiter.com: Did you get in trouble for that?
WH: I was pretty much asking for it, wasn't I? She loved it though! I guess I conjugated well.
Anyway, I think being seen as a shy person is an advantage for me as people are generally surprised the first time they see me perform on stage. When I finished high school, my yearbook was filled with comments about how funny I was and how people couldn't wait to see me on SNL. I went on to Community College at DeAnza in Cupertino and the acting class also had students interested in comedy so myself with other students performed some comedy routines that were aired on the school's TV channel. Eventually, I ended up taking an 8 week course with the San Francisco Comedy College and through that class I connected with many comedians around the Bay Area and I haven't stopped since.
Waiter.com: What kind of material do you perform?
WH: My material is all across the board. I do jokes about observations, the workplace, current events, politics, sports... humor can be found in so many places.
Waiter.com: Do you get any material from working at Waiter.com?
WH: Of course, but there aren't many of them in my routine right now. I think it might have to do with actually liking my job. I have a lot about my previous job of working at a bookstore though.
Waiter.com: Who are some of your favorite comedians?
WH: My favorite comedian to watch right now is Daniel Tosh. I also enjoy the comedy from greats such as Bill Cosby and Steve Martin.
Waiter.com: If a customer calls in after reading this interview and says "tell me a joke," what would you say in response?
WH: Most comedians don't like being put on the spot like that and I am no different. A fellow comedian once said it best saying, "You wouldn't go up to a doctor on his day off and ask them to perform a surgery. "
Waiter.com: Good point. So what are some of your favorite dishes and/or restaurants to order from that are partnered with Waiter.com?
WH: I like the Baked Rigatoni from The Pasta Market, the Souper Lunch from the San Francisco Soup Company, and the Burrito Wrapp from World Wrapps. I am glad there is a wide variety of choices as right now I am trying to watch what I eat.
Waiter.com: Yes, Waiter.com does have a great selection of choices for those looking to eat healthier. In fact, we have some new selections in our Snack Shak such as salads and yogurts for customers looking for a healthy snack!
WH: My mom and sister actually decided to have our own "Biggest Loser" competition in our family to see who can lose the most weight.
Waiter.com: How is that going?
WH: It is tough for me because I am really competitive, but I also hate losing.
Waiter.com: Haha, Good one! Do you have any shows coming up?
WH: I will be in Oakland for a couple shows on November 5th and 6th then to San Francisco on November 10th, and to Monterey on November 11th.

That's so Mold of You.
Hello, waiter.com blog readers! You are probably thinking, "there's a typo in the title of this blog." Actually, there is not a typo, as today is National Moldy Cheese Day! You might be thinking, "well, that just stinks." But moldy cheese is part of the cheese that gives a particular cheese its flavor. As you probably know, the blue stuff in Bleu Cheese is mold.
Want to have some moldy cheese for yourself on this day? Here are a few restaurants you can order from and have delivered to you by Waiter.com...
Togo's has a Cobb Salad that you can order that has bleu cheese crumbles on it
and also comes with bleu cheese dressing. People talk about going green... how about going bleu?
Johnny Rockets offers a salad as well with a bleu cheese dressing and you
can also order Rocket Wings (that's chicken wings) and you can
get some bleu cheese dipping sauce for your wings.
Jack's Prime Burgers & Shakes offers a Cobb Salad and a Mini Wedge Salad
which both include blue cheese. In addition to the salads, they also offer the Maytag Blue Ribbon Burger which is made with Blue Cheese.
Wait a minute, what is the correct spelling of this cheese? Bleu? Blue? Well, there are different spellings. The French use "Bleu" while in America it is typically just "Blue." Spelling aside, you are getting the same thing.
People sometimes claim to be "A Mold Above the Rest," but now you can have Mold from the Rest(aurant).
Take a moment to look through the menus available on Waiter.com. Remember, there is a $35 minimum food order for all Waiter.com deliveries, an $8.95 delivery charge (delivery charge is $6.95 if ordering during off-peak hours) and a 15% driver support fee. As always, you can call us at 1-800-Waiter-9 if you need any assistance.
