Here's yer sign...
Today--as I do most Thursdays--I went to WeightWatchers and had lunch after with my friends. We always go to Applebees as they have a terrific no-brainer WW menu.
Since we go there so often, we have our own table that they take us to Every. Single. Week.
We joke, because nearly every week, we have a new waiter/ server...and that whoever is assiged to us must have lost the "rock-paper-scissors" competition in the back.
Today, the server that was ours was a young man named "Matt." He promptly took our drink orders and seemed pretty personable. As soon as he left, 2 of the girls groaned and mentioned that the last time they'd had him as a server, the service was awful, food was horrid and when they asked for a manager, he actually came out and said that the manager was "too busy". Comeagain?
Today didn't prove much different than their prior experience.
After much confusion on food and drinks, one of the girls received her lunch COMPLETELY COLD. She asked to have them reheat or remake it and he was nice enough to take it back. After waiting for 20 minutes for her food to come back out... our server came out, looked at the empty place in front of her and paused... looked again and said...
wait for it...
"You don't have your meal yet?"
Before I could stop myself, I thought "Oh yah. she got it already and stowed it in her purse. *sigh* Here's your sign."
As I burst out laughing...visions of Bill Engvall came to mind and no one else at the table knew what the heck I was hysterically laughing about. I started to explain it, but if you'd never seen him...
Nevermind.
*sigh*
