Shout out to the homies...
Okay so lets start this one out by saying, "Thanks to my readers! If you are commenting keep them coming (even if your wife gets mad! because you don't post on your family blog) if you are not...I will name you if I must...you better get your lazy asses to school or work or off of the couch a little more so you can read and be entertained by this little thing I call life!
Where to start...I wrote something the other day...it was raw and unrefined and quite frankly I don't think the world is ready for it yet. So maybe a few more weeks and there will be gut ripping comments posted...that would just make me smile. Oh things that made me smile today...I had this table today (for those of you who don't know I am a server or waitress or grub slinger, I'm not about being PC...so why should you have to be!) Anyway total &itch (trying to keep it PG for the little ones) just rude and bad attitude, apparently it reflected in myself. Because she called a bit later and said that she had left her day planner there and wondered if anyone had found it. Well I took the usual info, "what color is it?, what was the name in the planner?, where were you sitting?, and who was your server?" and this is what she said to me..."I was sitting on the left side of the restaurant, by the windows, I don't know who our server was, but she was a bigger girl, with a bad attitude, she was just sort of rude..." Hmmm sound familiar to anyone...yup ding ding ding tell her what she has won Johnny! Yeah so the bitch (forget PG) who had this mightier-than-thou attitude has the audacity to say I had a bad attitude!
Let me tell you something folks, when in a restaurant, do not in any way, shape, or form piss off a restaurant worker...especially when she holds the content of your life in a little 6 in. X 6 in. binder of fake leather. If you have never worked in the restaurant business, this coming from a person who has over 5 long years in the service industry...we have unimaginable powers. The "telephone affect" (or is it effect) that goes on with a rude table is unbelievable! Within seconds I will know about the shitty assholes at table 25 when I am on the other side of the restaurant. There are actually websites that allow servers to list bad tippers. I have refused a table because they were jerks the last time they came to the restaurant. Servers make about $2.00 an hour, our jobs are a dime a dozen so if you piss us off bad enough we will retaliate, because we know we can go across the street to Applebees, or Lone Star, or Red Lobster and get a job...it is an endless circle. So think about that the next time you blame the server for the undercooked steak that I am so sure they had a hand in, or you send back your french fries because they have seasoning and you didn't tell us that you didn't want the seasoning. Give us a heads up, tell us what you want in advance so then when you get your food, we don't have to waste three trips to the kitchen trying to get all the extra crap that you "forgot to ask for" We are your servers...not your servants! Treat us with a little respect and realize that that bad attitude that you see on our face might just be a reflection of you!
