Ok so I work at an italian resturant and for our dinner crowd, we
don’t sell a lot of coffee, we sell more wine and margaritas and such.
Well I had my first decaf drinker of the shift so of course I had to
make a new pot of coffee since we don’t premake the decaf. ( we would
end up throwing the whole thing out normally) Well everything’s fine I
get her the coffee. At the end of the meal she asks for another cup of
coffee. Problem number 1: Since I’m a new server to the company I’m
only allowed a 3 table section…and one of my tables is going to sit
there for an hour after they pay and just talk… Thanks ladies…
Problem 2: I walk back up to the table and ask if everything’s ok. The
lady tells me that her coffee is way too strong… Um, lady its the
same coffee you just had 20 minutes ago… I just went back to the
station poured her a new cup of the exact same coffee, put a bit of
hot water in it and gave it back to her. Apparently she was satisfied
and I ended up with an 18% tip. All in an night’s work…

Decaf coffee. What the fuck? Why are you even bothering to drink it? Why do you have to ask for it like you are some sort of connoisseur? “Ya, I will have a decaf cappuccino, extra hot.” Shut the fuck up. Why do you want it extra hot, so it will take longer to get to a temperature that you can drink it? Maybe camp at my table a little longer? “Sorry, but we don’t have decaf espresso, so I cant make a decaf cappuccino.” “How do you not have decaf espresso!” Because it is FUCKING POINTLESS! My favorite part about decaf drinkers is that they ALWAYS NEED A SHIT LOAD OF CREAM…..but they never ask for it until you bring the coffee, thus making me go on one more trip, and consequently, hate them that much more.
