Thanks For Not Listening

November 13, 2009

My absolute favorite is going to a table getting their drink order and
as I’m leaving say, “Alright, I’ll be right back with your drinks and
some bread” and one person at the table responds with, “oh great, and
can we get some bread?” Sure jackass, and by the way thanks for
letting me know now that you’re not going to listen to anything i say
tonight. i bet you’ll listen when i shove that bread down your throat.

I love all of these stories because I used to be a waitress and really, you can’t make this shit up!

That is my pet peeve…sometimes I can’t resist throwing in ” yes, like I just said!”

I love that people are actually deathly afraid that they wont recieve bread. Whether its the “brown” bread or all sourdough or if they really have balls they want ranch or salad dressing with thier complimentary bread. A note to people who think they have to tell us to bring bread. YOU DON’T HAVE TO ASK US TO BRING BREAD. YOU WILL RECIEVE YOUR BREAD FASTER IF YOU WAIT FOR IT TO COME. IT IS PART OF POLICY THAT YOU RECIEVE BREAD AND WHEN YOU ASK FOR IT, IT MAKES THE SERVER WANT TO HIT YOU! phewww I feel much better.

Willow – When I say something like, “And I’ll be right back with your refills and chips!” and someone at the table says, “Yeah, can we get more chips? And I need more Coke.” I usually respond with, “Yes, that’s what I just said I’m getting for you. Is there anything else I should grab while I’m away?”

It makes them shut up and NEVER point out what I need to bring again. :D
