Alright so there's a bar about a 5 min walk away from my house. and it's convienent because it's stumbling distance home... BUT I've found staff there to be worse than useless at their jobs and generally don't go there.
Well me and some friends went out for some drinks sat. night
Waitress comes by to take our orders, I order a guinness. Now the bar was slightly noisy (as pubs tend to get but not chaotic or anything like that). both my gf across the table from me (therefore further than the waitress) and my friend beside me heard me say 'guiness'
she comes back about 20 minutes later with our drinks and I got a keiths... a beer I detest. I tell her (politey btw) 'sorry i ordered a guiness' she goes 'no you had a keiths' i say 'uh no... i had a guiness' she just says 'nope keiths' and walked away.
so that kinda pissed me off. as I now have a beer i wont drink (and none of my friends wanted it either and she wouldn't change it for what i ordered correctly).
oh well. we left as soon as we were done our drinks and didn't give her a dime for a tip.
Someone explained to me the reason she didn't want to change out the beer was because it was HER error, therefore she would have to pay for the beer out of her own pocket. Ok fine i can see how that would suck. BUT she was very rude and just flat out refused to believe she was wrong and just walked off (and never actually returned to our table someone else brought the bill).
so... instead of (possibly) being out $4.50 for a wrong beer she lost a tip on a 7 person party (which would have been WELL more than the $4.50 beer).
so yes that may have been sucky but whatever I dont care. It happened like 36 hours ago and still bugs me.
Just solidified in my mind that i will NOT be going back to that bar. close walking distance or not.
