Would have been fired. You at least say Hello! Welcome to Marie's Awesome Place of Delights, two this evening? If they camp at the table for a while (like an hour after closing) you can politely tell them the restaurant is closed but that's it. Usually when we vacuum or start cleaning they get the hint. Would we hate it? Yes. Did we curse their very existence? Very much so. Did we have half the kitchen shut down, the floors washed, the grills cleaned, and our aprons untied? Oh indeed. But we had to deal with it. That's what you get when you work in a restaurant. I never spat in my To-Go orders, even when I knew it was the Devil on Earth wanting fucking chicken alfredo and "HOT BREADSTICKS MIND YOU WITH NO SALT" 5 minutes before we close. For me personally, I'd never go into a restaurant right before they close simply because the service sucks and usually the food does, too. But you do whatcha gotta do and sometimes I don't care.

I can't believe that! Actually, I can. Rudness seems to be outstripping common courtesy lately. Sad, isn't it? My mum would have swatted my behind for speaking to someone like that. Jeepers, they're in the freakin' service industry! They're supposed to provide you with a service that YOU PAY FOR. Ugh. I've just gone through an experience with a bunch of nasties who didn't like an opinion I recently expressed and they let me know - the adult way: anonymously. Seriously. Love your blog! Ha ha funny! :) Holy cow! I can’t believe that! Actually, I can. Rudness seems to be outstripping common courtesy lately. Sad, isn’t it?
