To my Favorite Regular,
WHY does it take you three hours to eat your entree, which you modify the same three ways each time you come in?
And WHY do you need to try the blue cheese AND the honey mustard dressing with your free house salad because “you don’t know which one you’ll like,” when you come in at least once a month?
And WHY does this all happen when I know you’re a psychologist and you should probably recognize your food rituals are indicative of a horrible eating disorder?
Thank you, Favorite Regular, because now that I’ve learned to deal with your weird and psychotic food habits, everyone else refuses to wait on you. (and you thought you just ended up in my section every week).
Sincerely,
Your Favorite Server #139 — Comments (0) — 7/1/2010 at 11:58 AM — Server — Cheers to that! (3) — No one cares. (1) -
There's a sign in the caddy offering free appetizer if I don't suggest a lemonade.
On a Sunday...
Me: Would you like to start off with a lemonade?
Customer: No.
...5 mins later
Customer: You didn't offer me a lemonade, my appetizer should be free.
Me: Yes I did.
Customer: No you didn't.
Me: You're right, I'm sorry. Here is your coupon for a free appetizer.
The very next Sunday...
Me: Would you like to start off with a lemonade?
SAME EXACT CUSTOMER: No thanks.
...5 mins later
SAME EXACT CUSTOMER: You didn't offer me a lemonade, my appetizer should be free.
Me: You can leave now or I can have my manager escort you.
I'm so glad I don't work there anymore #138 — Comments (0) — 7/1/2010 at 11:35 AM — Server — Cheers to that! (7) — No one cares. (1)
