IHOP upgrade

So it is natural to upgrade for special occasions...we want to show special people an extra special time. Why would mother's day be any different? People who go to Mc Donalds normally go to Denny's or IHOP...and those IHOPers...they come see us...

As a casual dining establishment we are used to that. I LOVE to make special occasions more special. And I love to piss of rude people...so here is my quickie for the day...

I answered the telephone today giving the "spill" that we give...and I hear the most pleasantly rude voice say...

Ummm, what are yall's specials today??

Not offering any, I said, "Well I personally think everything is pretty special, but we are not offering any price breaking specials ; )"

I was so proud of that one...it was that kind of day!!! I had made enough other people smile...why not indulge myself?

And the voice went from pleasantly rude to hood...in 2.3 seconds...

She says to me, "Oh hell no, I am not having some DAMN hourly answering the phones speak to me like that, LET ME TALK TO YOUR MANAGER!!"

I replied, "Mam, I am the manager"

She turned that hood up just a notch and says, "You ain't cute...Just tell me how much your damn ribs cost"

I replied, " $15.79 + tax mam"

She then turns to her friend and says, "She had the nerve to tell me that everything is special...like she crazy"

I then here her equally rude friend say, "hang up on that bitch"

...followed by a dial tone...

STAY YOUR ASS AT IHOP!!!

I wonder if she knows Miss M???
