In one sentence, describe what the following article is about:

Make sure you do not walk faster than your customers. Walk slightly ahead of them, carrying menus and silverware to the table where you want them to sit. Ask if the table is okay before the customers sit down. Most customers expect to wait at least 10 minutes to be seated at a restaurant, especially if they didn't have a reservation. If your guests have waited much longer than that, offer a sincere apology as you show them to their table. Ask management if it's okay to comp them a free drink or appetizer (but don't offer it to the guests until you get permission). If the restaurant is slow, try to seat guests at a table that's not directly next to another full table. Of course, if the restaurant is very busy, guests will have to sit near other diners, but try to make sure all of your guests have enough space to be comfortable. By seating guests in rotating sections, you'll help ensure that all of your servers are able to make money for the night. Rotating stations will also help keep servers from becoming overwhelmed by getting several tables at the same time. You never want to throw all of the menus down on a table, as this seems rude and dismissive. Instead, carefully lay a menu and silverware at each place setting, and make sure your guests are seated before you leave the table. Be prepared to get water or other small items for guests. If they request more than that, politely let them know that their server will be right with them. You're the last person guests will have contact with, so offer a friendly farewell to guests as they walk out the door. This will help them leave feeling like they had a pleasant dining experience.
Show your guests to their table. Apologize to your customers if they have had to wait long. Make sure your guests are seated comfortably. Rotate stations. Place a menu and silverware for each guest at their place setting. Speak to guests as they leave.
