« Mayhem | Main | Have You Ever? » But it is chicken...
December 07, 2006
So my server comes in the kitchen... "The lady at Table 7 wants to know if she can have the prime rib instead of the pork." "Pork?" "Yeah. Pork." "But that is chicken." "Yeah. I told her. Three times. She says she knows she checked chicken on her RSVP, but didn't think we would be serving pork. So she wants prime rib, instead." "...and you told her that was chicken..." "Um hm. Three times. Just like I said. Her husband even told her it is chicken. But she insists she can't eat pork and wants prime rib." "I am not crazy, right - I mean that does look like chicken, doesn't it?" "It totally looks like chicken, which is good considering it is chicken. But she insists it's pork. And she's pretty uptight about not being able to eat the pork." "So, she's pretty much crazy then." "Pretty much." "Ok then Prime Rib it is." "I swear to God if she tells me she can't eat mutton I am going to lose it."

She just wanted the beef option after she saw what it was. She was too afraid to be honest with the server and decided to make it a food "issue." These are the things that don't make me miss waiting tables. Posted by: kerewin at December 8, 2006 12:28 AM Sometimes I think the world is nuts. A lot of times I wonder how the hell you keep yourself in control without *smacking* someone senseless! LEMON DROPS FOR EVERYONE!!! Posted by: LisaInCT at December 8, 2006 05:45 AM Seriously, people are crazy! Fact is stranger than fiction,,,,,you cannot make this stuff up. How do people get so self-centered to think that the conspiracy is just against them? You have to admit, sometimes the humor in food service is worth the pain-in-the-butt,,,,,just for the laughs. Posted by: sue.g at December 8, 2006 05:46 AM I agree with kerewin! She probably had already eaten some of it and this way she could not only have a different dish she would rather have....but that way she could have two dinners for the price of one! Anyways....call me a carnivour, but who in their right mind would NOT want to have Prime Rib? :) Posted by: Carmen at December 8, 2006 08:27 AM What this lady really needs to be throwing back are her MEDICATIONS! Either that or she needs to starting sharing them with the waitstaff she harasses .... Posted by: RLR at December 8, 2006 03:39 PM yeah, and when it's a wedding and the meals are counted out, it's REALLYfun when they change their minds.... Posted by: verna at December 9, 2006 10:47 AM I'm so with Lisa on this: you just can't make this shit up. Posted by: StevenHB at December 10, 2006 06:08 PM OMFG, I laughed out loud. I think people are weird. I like meat or pork or hell duck over Chicken (ate too much as a kid). I am usually really nice to people that wait on me, unless they piss me off or have a bad attitude, but then maybe sometimes it's my attitude they are reflecting on? Humm things to ponder. Posted by: mamas at December 11, 2006 09:56 AM Kerewin is right on - she sooo changed her mind and was afraid you'd say "no" if she was honest! What amazes me is that people have the balls to think up such a lie and stick to their guns with a straight face until they get what they want! Posted by: shera at December 11, 2006 10:11 AM  |
