This happened at work the other day and I'm not really sure why it happened but it got me thinking.
I'm making drinks at the bar and I hear my manager and a customer having a spat. Not sure what it was about, but the guy ran out in a fit. Just before he walked out he said something about the serving the country for twenty years.
...
Look, I don't wanna sound like an ass but playing that card doesn't mean you're entitled to do what you want in a restaurant. When you go to a restaurant, you follow what the staff say. It makes our job a million times easier and if we have to, we can even compromise with you.
Other Excuses I've dealt with:
The door next to my seat is too noisy (this happened on the same day even though the kitchen door was 3 meters / 9 feet away)
There's not enough room when there clearly is plenty
I like booths because I'm a high-class snob (Big One)
It's been five minutes where's my drink
My ice is dirty (We have a water purifier in the kitchen that makes ice at the same time)
What's been the most ridiculous or otherwise desperate excuse a customer has given you to get what they want?
