No Drinkie For You!

[unholypet]

Been a crazy week for me. This lady was just aggravating, at first.

Me.. Lady = L... Manager D = D.

Me: Hi! What can I get for ya?
L: I want a (pizza orders) and one drink, and one water, and one kid's drink.
Me: *...you have TWO kids* So that's (pizza order), water, drink, and two kids' drinks?
L: NO. ONE kid drink.
Me: Ma'am, don't you have two kids with you?
L: YES. I want ONE DRINK.
D: How are you this night? Everything okay? (he was behind a corner)
L: Yes, I just want one kid drink. One water. One adult drink.
Me: Ma'am, you have two kids, you have to pay for both of their drinks.
L: I WANT ONE DRINK.

Manager D just told me to get her the hell quiet, so we went with it. I was very aggravated, because she had two kids, and a baby. Eventually, her pizza went out, and Manager D took it and came with:

D: Hey, she got one drink for the kids?
Me: Yeah >_>
D: She's not letting that little boy drink anything.

Maybe the second kid just didn't like the drinks or had health issues preventing him from drinking them, and the water was for him.

My bad, she had another adult with her. He had the water.

Man = water, woman = drink, one kid = kid drink, baby = baba, other kid = nothing.

Maybe the two kids shared a drink

Maybe the two kids shared a drink

Most restaurants I know don't allow sharing. But perhaps the child was being punished?

[Der Cute]

I'm thinking medical.

I can understand that for an all you can eat buffet, but in other situations how can anyone tell you what you have to order and what you are allowed to do with it?

Unless she was trying to order a value meal and didn't want the drink and was trying to get it cheaper..I can understand not doing that.

But if someone only wants a certain number of drinks, then that's it isn't it?

[unholypet]

We don't actually have value meals. All stuff is separately priced and itemized. And the kid never got any liquid lol

[powerboy]

Maybe the kid already had a drink in the car

[strawbabies]

Maybe he's got a chronic peeing problem, and she doesn't want to risk him wetting himself?

[Broomjockey]

I'm really hoping it was medical, because otherwise that's not only mean, but probably dangerous. Sadly, my faith in humanity is such that I'm betting it's the cruel one.

[rerant]

While many good points have been made, there's still the other option that she was just a bitch with warped parenting practices.

[Plaidman]

Hopefully it was two kids sharing a drink

Chances are it was medicinal or punishment

Truth is she's just a bitch.

Nice title. Reminds me of this:

There's a famous story about Clara Bow...the very first truly wild ass Hollywood starlet. Shortly after she married Rex Bell, the cowboy actor, he went out drinking with his good friend, the young John Wayne. They came home sloshed and Clara was pissed because she and Rex had an important engagement in the morning. She sent to Rex packing to bed, and cornered John Wayne.

Imagine this 5'2", 105 pound red-headed spitfire cornering a drunken, 6'4" 250 pounds of solid muscle John Wayne.

She made him drink some more with her. She could drink anybody under the table, INCLUDING John Wayne. She made him drink until he passed out at her feet, and then she danced around his inert body, singing "No more drinkie-poo for yooo-uuuuuu!!!!!!"

Her housemates at the time witnessed this (it's in her biography) and nearly died laughing watching it.
