Ode to Joy...Part Three

If you haven't read Joy's other two blogs...please...read on...this was almost all in one night...

BE NICE TO YOUR SERVERS...
YOU DON'T KNOW WHO THEY DEALT WITH BEFORE YOU!!!


Joy got sat a 4 top and scowled at it before even greeting it...I have to admit, at first glance, I thought she was being close minded and hoped she would be pleasantly pleased...

Not so much the case...

As she passed out the food she got the lecture that I would later get...

The man didn't like his portion of mashed potatoes...so I brought another generous portion out...

First of all I would like to disclose that the reason a majority of Americans are obese is the freakishly LARGE portions restaurants like mine serve people...there is nothing small about the portions...

I approached the table with Mash in hand ready for a lecture...

The man didn't just want to lecture me about feeling "cheated" on his portions...but he wanted to school ME on how to portion things more uniformly

He stared my telling me that he felt "cheated" by his portion of mash potatoes...and that his rice portion (that is bagged and weighed ) was "hardly there"...and that his Chicken Fried Steak...THAT IS ALL PRECUT AND THE EXACT SAME OUNCE WEIGHT...was 1.5 times smalled than the other person who ordered it...

REALLY...REALLY

After explaining that every aspect of his meal was inadequit he told he that he wasn't complaining about his steak, because he was eating that...

My internal thoughts were...YES ASSHOLE...You are complaining about your steak...You're eating it has NOTHING to do with it...because every other part of your meal that you are complaining about is half eaten as well!!!

So I asked him if the portion of mashed potatoes that I brought him was enough or if he still wanted more...he said that it was enough...

I passed by one more time to see that clean plate...LITERALLY...NOTHING ON IT!!!!

After they left I commented to Joy that they must have been fun...only to receive a hand written note from this prick that goes as follows:

I was VERY disappointed with the meal today, our server was good and none of this was her fault. The meal proportions were RIDICULOUSLY small. Two other members in our dinner group had the EXACT same plate...except notably bigger. The chicken fried steak was easily 1.5 times larger on their plate. I had less than half of the mashed potatoes they had, and the rice was almost not there at all. You should make sure the cooks are using the same proportions at all times!

FIRST OF ALL

They are portions...not proportions...

SECOND OF ALL

3 Chicken Fried Steaks are made by ONE cook...all the portions are the same...just ONE out of the THREE of you like to complain to get a free meal!!!

AND THIRD OF ALL...

Not on my clock sweety...I can eye ball a portion and tell you if it is that far off...when your Chicken Fried steak that you have already eaten the edge off of 2 of the 4 sides is still covering 3/4ths of your plate...it is enough of a portion...

Ode to Joy...I have no idea what she did to the restaurant Gods to piss them off enought to bring her this kind of behavior...but she better ask for some forgiveness...

I COULD NOT HANDLE ANOTHER NIGHT LIKE THIS IF I WERE HER!!!!
