Dinner at a nice restaurant Ver Rage.0

[Average_Jerk]

After I left work today, I went to pick up my wheels at the local tire shop. Then I thought to myself "what the hell, lets go out to eat." So I stopped at a kinda nice italian joint for some dinner. Here's my story

As soon as I sat down at the bar, the bar slave said hi and all that. He sometimes bartends. Then the bartender came over.

him - can i get you a drink?
me - yea, Jameson neat and a glass of water

He gets it for me, no issues. Im also hungry, but he doesnt offer me a menu. No big deal, I was gonna wait til my next drink to order anyways. Fast forward......my drink is empty. Now im just sitting there like an idiot with no drink. Time passes

bar slave - omg Dave, do you want another Jameson?
me - yea, thanks

Now Im sipping on my second drink. The bartender is yapping away about the royal wedding and only talking to his regulars. Rage is building. Dude walks right passed me

me - hey!
him - yes?
me - can i see a menu?

I have a menu in hand. Time passes, I figure out what I want. And I sit there for fucking ever. dude keeps walking by me. BSing with all the people he knows.

bar slave - did you want to order?
me - yea

Then I ordered. shortly after I order, my drink goes empty. Im sitting there for what seems like forever. The food comes out. The bartender has no idea who its for because he isnt doing his job.

him - did you order food?
me - yes
him - here you go

5 mins later

him - how is it?
me - ok
him - did you want another drink?

I looked at my watch cause I was timing him. he smiles like he assumes i might have time one for one more

him - yea?
me - after 15 fucking minutes, yea that would be nice
him - huh?
me - Ive been sitting here for 15 minutes with an empty fucking glass in front of me. You must not work on tips huh?
him - NO!
me - then shit is different here in NY. Fetch me a fucking Jameson

he starts slamming shit around, throwing a fit. puts my drink in front of me and storms off into the kitchen to bitch and moan, or so I assume.

bar slave - dude Im so sorry
me - its not your fault. youre busy. this dude is gossiping about the fucking royal wedding and helping everyone around me. straight ignoring me. he looked at my empty glass 3 fucking times and just turned and walked away every time.
bar slave - this ones is free. sorry
me - when do you work next? im leaving a shit tip, but I'll throw you a few bucks the next time
bar slave - hes just mad cause I kicked his ass at golf this morning.
me - no excuse to be an unprofessional sack of shit. I'll check you later

good show. I'd fire myself if some guy sat for 15 minutes with an empty glass.he should be keeping tabs on who is an inch away from finishing as well.

that has to be the weakest bartender i've heard of. i would've made sure to ruin his night like that as well. i'm a pretty patient dude when i'm in a restaurant, and very understanding when it's busy. but as for the bartender, where you can see him the whole time while he's working, he deserved to be chewed out like he did. i'm pretty generous too, and i would've slid the barback a $5.

I would have, but I didnt have any cash on me

[Oxer]

What a faggot cunt.

[smoky0937]

good to see someone using tips for what they're meant for. If you're good you get a good tip if you're shit you get a shit tip. nicely handled sir.

[Weponhead]

I cant stand shit service.. I'll get up and leave.

[benz88]

Personally i wouldnt have tipped, But like you said the barback was nice so that .85 pennies would be good lol.
