Her humble and refreshing gesture has struck a chord with social media users, who praised her willingness to embrace the value of service and hard work.
Taking to Instagram, Mamya shared a carousel of photos capturing her experience working at a restaurant. Dressed in a professional barista uniform, she wore a crisp white button down shirt paired with a dark green apron featuring leather straps, a matching cap, and a brown utility pouch around her waist for carrying essentials.

Accompanying the post, Mamya reflected on the experience and revealed that she had long wanted to try waiting tables.
She wrote, “The other day I was talking about acts of service. Around a year ago, I wanted to wait tables, but I was depressed and lazy. This year, I am taking myself a bit easier and seriously. My friend trusted me with his reputed restaurant, regardless of my clumsy self, and I fed a bunch of ladies. I truly enjoyed myself while doing so.”
The actress also shared how the experience felt therapeutic, explaining that observing people and engaging with customers filled her with happiness and positive energy.
Photos from the day show, Mamya fully immersed in the role from taking orders and serving coffee to chatting with guests and posing for cheerful snapshots.
