  • A Quick One

    Did a shift at the pub, and it was very, very busy. It got so bad, that we literally ran out of every single kids meal. At one point, we counted over 30 kids meals on order. That is normally how many kids meals we do in a week! So yeah, very, very busy.

    I had to serve a mother at the bar.

    Mo: I would like to order a kids meal.
    Me: I am sorry, but we have completely run out of everything off the kids menu.
    Mo: THAT'S ILLEGAL!

    I could do nothing more than sigh.

        This is why you need trap-doors that can be handily opened by pressing a big red button.

            See. I can understand being frustrated at a restaurant being out of food. But, REALLY? Please think of a better line.

              "Yes, ma'am, in some places it is illegal to serve children from the bar."

              It sucks that you were so busy that you ran out of some of your food, but if you take your kid to a bar to get food, you really don't have room to complain about the lack of selection.

                  It's inconvenient, not illegal. Tricky language, English. Most people never actually get the hang of it right.
                  Customers should always be served . . . to the nearest great white.

                        I think if the Doctor had companions like her, he'd have said fuck Earth around the end of his fourth body.

                              My response to the SC would have gone something like this:

                              "Illegal? Really? Tell me where in the law does it say that it's illegal for (name of pub) to run out of children's meals? Use the pay phone outside and call the cops, otherwise order something else or leave. Actually, scratch that. You know what? Just leave. You're too stupid to order food. NEXT CUSTOMER!!"

                              I swear, some places need to have a minimum intelligence requirement in order to be a customer.

                              You know how amusement parks have a sign that reads "You must be at least this tall to ride this ride" and it shows the height.

                              Have your pub display a sign that reads "You must be this at least this smart to order food here." Then play a video of someone not being a sucky customer ordering food.
                              Fixing problems... one broken customer at a time.
