We should all make a pact to tell people like that, (you know the useless, good for nothing, save to suck the essence of your soul from you bastards, who believe they are entitled to whatever they dream up) exactly where to go.

I think of a restaurant as someone's home, would these people just invite themselves to a party and not be a part of it? Just show up with thier own chips, thier own games, thier own cd's and proceed to have thier own conversation and just put everyone who was invited on ignore? Yes they would.

Since they were apparently raised by wolves we should provide them with yet another level of service, more of an information service, let's inform them this type of rudeness is unacceptable. That they are the scourge of the earth, that they make us consume tums like chicklets at the Tiajuana boarder, and that yes we have a very lovely group of people waiting at the bar for this table, where they will happily pay us all the money we want for a number of things on our menu, which will allow our kids to go to college, to possibly become teachers, and maybe if we are lucky inform the offspring of the scourge that they can break the cycle, and be better citizens than the rest of thier family.

I think it would be acceptable to tell them to get up, that thier use of the "banquet facility" is now over. Unless the would like to pay the hourly room charge of whatever the highest guestcheck avegage is. Hopefully some happy soul has purchased a bottle our two of Silver Oak that night.

Wow, I think you hit a nerve or something. Rude people suck, that's my point.

And REALLY sorry about the back up soup, that bites.

Tacky people irritate me to no end.

Too bad you didn't drop the back up pan of Tuscan tomato soup on THEM...

How rude!

Just when I think to myself "Ok. Now no amount of rudeness will really amaze me anymore," something changes my mind.

I used to sell Mary Kay so I know exactly what this woman was doing. We are told at our meetings to get people to try the make-up anywhere and anyhow - so we carry little swatches and things with us - newest items too. If you see someone on the street who looks like they could use a little help in that area, you talk to them. Just go right up to them and ask them if they want a consultation. Most will say no but for the occasional person who says yes, you grab them and go anywhere that you can sit down and do the consult.

Then after it is over, you ask them to come to a local show that you are doing and you've hooked them!

Anyway, this is what happened in your restaurant! I can't believe they did that though - there wasn't a local coffee shop or Starbuck's?? That would've been better and not annoying to anyone.

That consultant had a lot of nerve. She probably does very well. I did horribly as I wasn't brave enough to accost folks on the street!

It is rude. They are taught to be rude in that way. If she does it again (you'll recognize her the next time) then ask her for a bit of the profit! This way she'll never step into your place again - she won't want to pay you!

Lol

next you will be telling us one their husbands dropped by with the leftovers for them to snack on while doing their makeover.

Really, shouldn't a person selling beauty products of all things know that an elementary rule of restaurants is to restrict makeup application to the powder room?

Tricky, this business of hospitality. Begs the question of how far does a customer have to go to get kicked out of a restaurant?
