  • Last SC of the year

    Phew! As luck would have it, I am off work until the beginning of January. So, this is my last SC of 2007.

    OK, some of you may know, we have a strict "don't take shit" from SC's rule. If a customer wants to complain, fair enough, we will deal with it accordingly. If a customer wants to do nothing but shout and swear, well, they have no right to act surprised when we do it back to them.

    I walked onto the bar, and it was amazingly busy. I had absolutely no idea who was next to be served, so I just walked to the centre.

    Me: Alright! Who was next please?
    SC: I WAS NEXT! I WAS NEXT! I WAS NEXT! FOR FUCKS SAKE I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR LIKE AN HOUR! I WAS NEXT!

    I go to the quiet, terrified looking customer next to the SC.

    SC: ARE YOU DEAF? I SAID I WAS NEXT!
    Me: Of course you were sir. Swearing at me and using sarcasm appeals to my better nature, so I will be sure to serve you next.
    SC: HUH? WHAT THE FUCK'S HE TALKING ABOUT?

    The customers around him started to snigger. I didn't serve him next. A sweet old lady, who is one of our regulars nudges him.

    Lady: You do know they're all ignoring you because you were rude right?
    SC: HUH???

    He quietened down, and when I went to serve him he was as sweet as pie.

    Roll on 2008!

    Nothing like a good ol' passive-aggressive ass whipping to kick off the holidays.

        Funny how an admonition from a "Grandma" will bring even a foul-mouthed boor right into line!

        Nice going, Grandma and CRML for teaching that jerk some manners!

          Oh how I wish I could do that at my work.
          If I ever move to UK I'm applying at your bar.

            I want to work at your bar too! You don't even have to pay me!
