Eat Deal

Jeremy asked:


I went to lunch with some coworkers for someones birthday. We ordered drinks and they were brought to the table…except mine. I attempted to get the waitress’s attention with no luck so I snapped my fingers(Which got her attention) and told her I hadn’t gotten my drink.

So we ordered and I ordered what I always order at that restaurant and when the food came my dish was the wrong dish. I asked the waitress and she told me thats what I ordered. Essentially telling me that I am wrong and that I must not know what I’m talking about since I can’t even seem to get my own order right.

So what was it, a combination of poor service and perhaps(I’ll admit) a little rudeness from myself? I was the only one at the table who didn’t get their drink and I was pretty thirsty. I always tip very well and having had spent years working in a diner I know what waitress’s deal with. But either way if they’re not giving you good service is snapping still wrong?
Satan you must be as bad at waiting as you are at typing. Messing with someone’s food is juvenile and illegal and also pointless. It makes about as much sense as swearing at someone in a foreign language. If you do it, they don’t know so whats the point. Oh yea, and waiting was a stupid movie, like most movies that have Ryan Reynolds in them.
Also, if you find being in a service position demeaning then why do it. I’ve known many “Lifer” waitress’s and they all knew their place in a restaurant. They were always nice and cheery and generally got a great tip. Is it more of a younger generation of waitress’s with an overinflated sense of self entitlement?
“Stuff happens and let it go.” So basically shitty service should be ignored? Wow what a novel thought. Perhaps we should forget about the whole tipping concept as well.

“they deserve more respect then that.”
Why?
