First off...HI KELLY! =)

Yet another interesting night at work...

I totally forgot that it was an LA holiday today. It was stupid customer day. Okay, these little situations are in no particular order. ANYWAY, there were at least 5 different incidents tonight that I thought were blogworthy.

1) On my break, these two morons decide to eat and order at the bar and leave for 30 minutes, abandoning their food. Keep in mind they didn't tell anyone. Another co-worker was witnessing the whole deal. So they come back and they were wondering where their food went. They end up yelling at the host who had NOTHING to do with the food. They claimed that they were gone for 10 minutes and that they told someone that they'd be back. Come on, we're not stupid.

2) Apparently the word "regular" does not exist in one guy's vocabulary. Over 99.9% of the time the phrase "with everything on it" means EVERYTHING. The guy orders "nachos with everything on it, but no chicken, chilli, guacamole, and beans." I reply, "so that means you want regular nachos?" "No. no. I want everything on it." (I'm sure you can tell where this intelligent conversation went...) That same table said that there was a birthday on the table. "Hi. ummm...we don't have any money but it's her birthday and if you could bring us a Kona Pie for free? Thanks." First off, if you were going to ask for it...make you "go to the bathroom" longer than 20 seconds. Second, you never tell a server that you have no money. It was brilliant I tell you...brilliant.

3) Another cleaver party thinks that a long light colored hair in the chips will mean it's free. The cooks are all Mexican males with black hair. Their server WATCHED them put the hair in. She ate all of her food and THEN complained that there was a problem. What was she on? Did she really think that we're that dumb? Since that bitch was being such a crybaby about it we had to comp it.

4) Towards the end of the night, a couple comes in. The guy orders a virgin Pina Colada while his not-so-lovely girl orders an alcoholic one. Her server asks for ID. Clearly, if one was over 21, and were asked for an ID one would be pretty pleased. NO...not this drama queen. "Can't you tell I'm 21?!" she exclaims. Her server then says, "It's the law. I just need to see some ID." Her boyfriend then suggests "I'll order it." Their server knew that he'd give it to her and told him no. "You have to give it to me, because I'm ordering it." Their server went on to explain that a move like that can get her fired. So, not only is there a drama queen on the table, her king gets all bitchy about it too. They ended up leaving. Are they serious? If you can't prove you're 21, then we can't serve you a drink. And don't be surprised if you're asked for an ID maybe you just look that young.

5) This is the best one. I had a table that was higher than gas prices. You could smell the weed and every eye on that table was bloodshot. One of the stoners asked for a green apple. She downed that sucker and ordered a pina colada. It took 3 credit cards to pay for their food and a 5% tip. Thanks a lot you brain-fried losers...with the money you all saved you can all buy a clue.

Some people should never leave their house. Some people should really learn some manners. Some people should know how to treat other people with respect. Some people are just hopeless.
