I hate hate hate the restaurant business.
Saturday I had an impossible table. I was rushed since I was double sat, if you don't know what that's like imagine expecting only one baby and then finding out its twins at the due date and having 2 other small children to deal with at the same time. I was doing exceptionally well! Towards the end of their meal they ask for a manager and complain that I was the worst server they had ever had! Are you serious? I was totally oblivious to the fact that they might ever be upset. Apparently they were upset from the very beginning, from the drinks to the salads all the way to the very expensive steaks and exspensive bar drinks...they even said that I SLAMMED their check on the table and had a bad attitude. My coworkers couldnt beleive it "What? Val acting unpleasant?, that's rare". So I sucked it up...well okay not really, I bawled I was so upset by this table treating me like dirt. In the end they got their entire meal for free (it was a 60 dollar bill) and my manager sent me home. In it for a free meal? I think so!
Also if your gonna leave less than a 15 percent tip you shouldn't be eating out PERIOD!!!!!!! If it wasn't for servers your food would be more expensive. Plus when I get cheapos I feel like I am dust under the rug to them!

Oh, I'm sorry. That sucks. I used to have people yell at me at the movie theatre for dumb things, like when I wouldn't let their kids into R rated movies without an accompanying adult. They ALWAYS asked to see a manager. I would smirk and say "you're looking at her." I hate dumb people. Sorry you had a bad night!!
