We were comparing notes with a friend of ours with knowledge of the US estate agent world, and he was saying things are similarly tough at the moment in the property market there. He knows of a restaurant in his town where four of the waiting staff are real estate agents - trying to keep the property sales going in the background but having to do nights at tables to keep the wolf from the door. Typically, I'd imagine they are using it as an opportunity - on the look out for new vendors, keeping an ear out for property related gossip, and possibly leaving their card with the bill instead of the restaurants. Could be the way forward!
