I have been in the service industry for six years and I have had some
very nasty tables. But this one really sticks out in my head. I was
working a morning shift and just after the lunch rush I get a two-top
of middle-aged ladies. I walk over to greet them and before I can
properly introduce myself, one of the ladies yells out, “Please, I am
dying of thirst can you run and grab me a water?” The other lady
quickly spits out she wants an ice tea. I grab their drinks and am
setting them down in front of them not 15 seconds later. The lady who
orders the water then says, “Oh thank you, you are a life savior. I
love you…. I bet your mom never told you that.” I was dumbfounded
and with a very hard edge in my voice (mom is deceased) said, “EXCUSE
ME?!” She didn’t look back at me and started a conversation with her
friend. I left the table and had a co-worker take it. I went out back
to smoke to stop myself from losing it.

What would prompt someone to say something like that? What a cunt.
If you had only known the way to your mothers heart was through a glass of water…. it sounds so easy, doesn’t it?
intresting, to say the east. Could the women have such a dry sense of humor, as though she knew Every mother hss told her son or daughter if not loud but Every mother loves her son. She has to, a unwritten law-she’s more than likely the only one that really has too.
Wow now that was a touching thought.
Should have slapped a bitch.
