Happy New Year everyone from the UK!!
Anyway, I'll tell you an SC story from tonight!
It is packed (a bar on New Years Eve, who would have thought??) and we are all serving as quickly as we can. I should also note that it was a non-uniform night, so we were all dressed in normal clothes. This is why it took us a while to react.
It is absolutely full of people and we are all too busy concentrating on our customers. I see a shape fly past me and starts making cocktails on the back bar. I don't look directly at this figure, as I am too busy concentrating on my own drinks. Next thing I know, I hear a co-worker scream.
CW: WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU???
I look, and it is a CUSTOMER. The SC had walked behind the bar, and started making his own drinks right beside me! We were all so busy that it took us about twenty seconds to notice.
Me: OH MY GOD! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?
SC: Well, its crowded so I thought I'd make my own! I have the money! Here!
Shoves money into my hand.
Me: GET OUT! GET THE FUCK OUT!
SC runs away. But he had an accomplice. A friend of his started running down the bar, and started unloading all the bar snacks into his pockets. He stupidly decided to run in my direction. Now, I do NOT condone violence against customers, but I was actually afraid at this point. Someone we didn't know was running around behind the bar, we had registers open and everything, so when he ran towards me and my register, I just did the first thing that came into my head.
I kicked the SC...HARD. I got him right below the knee and he went down, crushing all the poor bar snacks. At this point, the CW who spotted the two SC's had collected the manager.
The manager ended up "escourting" the two men off the premisis, and by that I mean throwing them through a set of closed doors. It was such a good job that no one called the police, because if they did, I probably would have ended up in the shit...big time!
So, my last SC of 2007! And it was one never to forget!
