Yeah, so last week I had the worst day ever, and it all crescendoed with these two guys... But I'd better back up. I had a pretty bad day anyway, not including work, so by the time I got to work, I was already in a foul mood. And every table I got seemed to only make my angrier, and I was fighting with one of my friends I work with too. It was just a shitty night. By the time my shift was over I wanted to go home so bad, I was so angry and frustrated I was nearly to the point of tears, and it takes a lot to get me to that point!
So I was technically cut off the floor, but I sat these two guys in Amanda's section and got their drinks while she was out smoking and we started chatting a little bit. They were normal late night customers, which means they were very perverted and were hitting on every server that came within eye distance. But I tolerated them, was even pleasant altough they were total dicks. They didn't want Amanda when she came back in from smoking, so I ended up staying later to take the table. And they were a pain in the ass! They complained about how last time they came in they got ripped off, so I talked to my boss and we hooked them up- got them some extra chicken strips, extra pancakes, even took a couple dollars off their ticket. And they sat there forever eating and bullshiting, harasing all the servers. But I took it like a champ. They finally left 45 minutes later, and I was just so tired and wanted to leave. All I had to do was clean off the table, pick up my tip and jet! I had cashed them out, so I knew they didn't leave anything on credit card, so I walked over to the table to clean up, collect my tip and leave. I didn't see any cash sitting on the table, but they were asses so I figured they 'hid' the tip under a plate trying to be cute. Thats just annoying. Usually there's someting sticky on the bottom of the plate, since people are just so much more damn slobby when they eat at a resteraunt than when at home, and that in turn gets on the money. I really hate having to clean off a tip before I can stick it in my damn pocket! ((end of rant))
So anyway, start bussing off the table, no tip. I'm just sad, all like 'what assholes, couldn't even tip' when I pick up one of the guy's Gold's Gym application he left on the table. And there it is. Three. Fucking. Pennies.
I. Freaked. Out.
I was just so fucking upset, I couldn't understand it. I bent over backwards to make sure these rude ass guys got exactly what they wanted, and they left happy, so why the fuck did they leave three cents on the table?! I already explained in an earlier blog that leaving a penny on the table is a downright insult and slap-in-the-face way of saying "you sucked as a server", and I know I did an awesome job with these guys. I was just furious at these ignorant-ass fuckers!
So very maturely I grabbed the three pennies and threw them across the restaraunt. Yeah I know, very mature, but hey I was seeing red and wanted to chase those guys out into the parking lot and stab them to death with a spoon. Instead I rolled a whole bucket of silverware in like 5 min flat ((an amazing feat >< )) and stormed outside and drove home like a bat out of hell. XD
So yeah, if I ever see those guys again I'd probably grab a handful of change and throw it at them, but God that was just one of the worst nights I've had at work in a while!
