I'm sorry if you're nursing your drink for an hour and a half and it is now 1 part whiskey 1000 parts water I'm going to try to take it away.Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13757077636110995393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2692672598125588912.post-28629214615164329352011-01-30T01:34:42.941-05:002011-01-30T01:34:42.941-05:00# 1 Touching the server.

If I'm standing close enough for you to poke I'm probably engaged with another customer. And you're not seven and I'm not your mother. Do not slap my hand when I reach for the empty beer bottle and you think I'm going to take your glass with melted vodka ice in it. I will slap you back.Merlottnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2692672598125588912.post-78160017550236209062009-11-21T12:55:46.217-05:002009-11-21T12:55:46.217-05:00In regard to #7:

I would rather just not say that anything was wrong, and I choked down many a horrible meal because of it (I should point out, I'm from NZ where we don't tip, so it never affected how much the servers earned).<br />It wasn't til I was out to dinner with a chef friend and one of our companions didn't like her meal. He told us that we should always say something, because otherwise we're not giving them a chance to step up and change it.<br />It's still hard to change tacts, but I appreciate the sentiment and I'm really trying!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2692672598125588912.post-24796293504369268612009-11-17T19:49:16.079-05:002009-11-17T19:49:16.079-05:00i hate ui hate uHelenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13757077636110995393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2692672598125588912.post-65234962391081612432009-11-17T01:47:52.793-05:002009-11-17T01:47:52.793-05:00you seem to have a lot of pent up anger...i sugges...you seem to have a lot of pent up anger...i suggest yoga or meditation. try looking out your third eye, i hear that's suppose to help.<br /><br />i hope you realize i'm incorporating all 10 into my next visit to see you. love you!!!Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08264384287646535615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2692672598125588912.post-64699960773377836742009-11-12T22:18:14.303-05:002009-11-12T22:18:14.303-05:00exactly, i swear i'm writing a book about it a...exactly, i swear i'm writing a book about it all one day. and by the way rachel you're welcome, and also samesies and thank you too!Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13757077636110995393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2692672598125588912.post-16786539180611318622009-11-12T12:57:22.321-05:002009-11-12T12:57:22.321-05:00spot on. i also used to encounter people who would...spot on. i also used to encounter people who would be like, "i come in here all the time, is there anything you can do for me?" aka a discount or some free food. <br /><br />but come on now...i don't see banks giving me free money, or stores give me free clothing.rachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16889706294466442763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2692672598125588912.post-15431767459499675992009-11-12T09:58:12.797-05:002009-11-12T09:58:12.797-05:00Helen, you have outdone yourself!!
