So, we changed our menu. And when I say we change our menu, we changed it...A LOT. About half the menu has been scrapped as a lot of food was getting wasted, so we've trimmed it down to include only a few main meals and mainly snacky type meals like sandwiches. Well, we're a bar right? Our sales rely on alcohol, and we were losing money due to food not getting sold and thrown out.
So, I am working the floor, clearing some tables, when all I hear is:
SC: MANAGER! MANAGER! MANAGER!
I hear a co-worker very sheepishly say "He's over there." and points to me. Crap.
It's a regular customer. He's in all the time, and is normally very friendly towards the staff. I've chatted to him on a few occasions outside of work, and I was very surprised by this.
Now, I'm 22. But I don't look it. I constantly get asked for I.D everywhere I go (drinking age is 18) and once got refused a 15 rated movie (I know!!)
SC: You're not the manager! I know you're not the manager!
Me: Um, yeah I am. I got made a manager a few months ago...
SC: Is THIS your menu?
Thrusts new menu in my face.
Me: Yeah it is.
SC: THIS is your menu?
Me: Yeah, we've changed it recent....
SC: I DO NOT LIKE IT!
Me: Like I said, we've changed it becau...
SC: WHY HAVE YOU CHANGED IT??
Me: We've changed it because...
SC: NO! THAT'S ENOUGH! I'M LEAVING! THE MANAGER WILL BE HEARING ABOUT THIS!
He put his hands up in the air and stormed off. A couple of co-workers burst out laughing. Like I said, he was a regular, a normally friendly regular, and it was just bizarre to see him act like this.
The main manager came in to relieve me. I told him which customer it was, and that he was a regular.
Manager: Ban him. He's fucked up big time.
