I don't often post in sightings, partially because I don't get to go out much (damn grave shifts), and partially because I only seem to run into jackoffs when I'm at work myself. That said, tonight I had an encounter with a real winner.
I have some family in town this week, and we all went out for a nice dinner before I had to come in to work. We head to the restaurant, eat our meal in peace, and we're waiting for a dessert to share amongst our whole group when a raging SC decides to make a scene in the middle of the place.
Me:
SC: Crotch-foaming jackass
PG: Poor Guy, SC's waiter
PGM: Poor Guy's Manager
SCW: Crotch-foaming jackasses crotch-foaming wife
(We're sitting, having a nice chat at my table, when suddenly there's a loud bang)
SC: You've got to be fucking kidding me, I'm not paying this!
PG: Sir, you ordered the food and ate it...you can't just leave without paying.
SC: Bullshit, this food isn't even worth half what you're charging...I'll give you $10 and no more for this crap.
Me: (I'm noticing that there are 4 people at his table...and I'm noticing that our table of 3 has spent about $35 so far. Right...)
PG: Your total is on the receipt, prices are not open to negotiation.
SC: Bullshit, I want your manager, NOW!
Me: (Oh this should be good...ooh, cake! Dessert time!) (Note, I am now enjoying this SC's idiocy through the veil of chocolate cake, which improves my mood. If only I could eat it at work when someone yelled at me...)
PGM: Sir, I understand there's a problem?
SC: Yes, your waiter has insulted us all, and he's a damned thief.
PGM: How is that, sir?
SC: He gave us this receipt and the charge is over $50, but we never ordered any of this!
PGM: You didn't order any food at all?
SC: No, all we ordered were drinks, he never even offered us food, I'm not paying $50 for food we never got.
PGM: PG, did they order these items?
PG: Yes, the cooks made them up in back and I delivered every one to this table. I also bussed the empty plates afterward, he said that he was refusing to pay more than $10 because he didn't like the food.
SC: You're a damn liar!
Me: (To my table-mates) I'll be right back. (I then walk over to PG and PGM at the table, since I'm evil like this) Excuse me, sir, you're the manager?
PGM: (surprised) Er...yes sir, I'm unfortunately a bit occupied at the moment, if I could get with you in just one second...
Me: Actually, I wanted to let you know that he (SC) was screaming earlier about how "this food wasn't worth half this price" and that he "refused to pay more than $10 for it"...your waiter was actually quite patient with him, but his story has changed...audibly...since then.
SCW: Well the food wasn't very good anyway!
PGM: Ah...I see, so you did order, ma'am?
SC: (cat butt face at me and PG as we both grin a little bit...he's just been caught)
PGM: Well, in that case, you will need to pay for the food you ordered.
I head off to the bathroom at that point, and I'm met outside by PG who thanks me...I just winked and wished him luck with the assholes. SC and his group were gone from their table, but he did toss me the finger before he left...and I overheard PGM telling them that they were no longer welcome in that restaurant.
I sit back at my table where my two very surprised relatives just stare at me in disbelief. They stare even wider when I look at SC out the window and
First time I've gotten someone banned from someone else's workplace!
