LOS ANGELES – After years of hard work and countless failed attempts at obtaining a food handlers license, Los Angeles transplant Dustin Peckingham has been forced to accept a starring role on the new Fox sitcom Tip Your Server in order to help pay his bills.
“Ever since I was a little boy, I dreamed of serving cheeseburger egg rolls to every hungry mouth in Hollywood,” Peckingham said. “I’m disappointed my agent couldn’t book me another server job but I do hope to take the skills I learn from being on set and use them in my return to the dining room of my beloved Hollywood Applebee’s.”
Peckingham is the next in a long line of culinary school dropouts who have begrudgingly taken demeaning acting gigs to make rent money. “What kind of world is it when I have to trade the Heimlich technique for the Meisner technique just to get by?”
