Server Justice

Two or three years ago I would have been with this table. Right in the thick of it...laughing off the stupid stuff and backhanding the rude...

I mean really...one time a group of us went to Hooters and my friend Jamaal asked the server, "So you have to have titties or ass to work here...I can see your tits...you must have a big ass, let me see"

after she turned around to show her ass he replied, "Hmmmm, you must have a really great personality." Yeah...those are my friends...good news is...we have all grown up a little bit.

So this week I got a reminder of my past. I am geared up to deal with these folks...so I helped a sister out. They wanted a strong drink...so I directed them to the strongest one we serve. It is also the most expensive one we serve. (I didn't tell him that...server justice)

So they were pretty impatient when I was getting the drink order...they wanted me to take the dinner order at the same time...no problem!!! I am on it.

The other guys wanted a drink...one was nice, and one was a jackass...he was my Jamaal...mannn I wish I could apologize to that Hooter's chick...so they came up with some concoction that didn't even sound good. And go figure...they didn't like it. So I tweeked it and magic.

I let the server do the upkeep, but guess who they asked for when they ordered another drink...yep...Can you send your manager by...

So I made them one of my favs...vodka, sprite, and a touch of grenadine!!! YUMMM!!!!

They liked it!!! They left my server exact change...that is how we were different. We gave them a hard time, but we left nice tips!!!

I guess that was a bit of karma for me...and some patron justice!!!
