Last night, the bf and I went to TGI Fridays.
We were seated quickly by the hostess and commenced looking through the menu. It took a little longer than normal for a waitor to come to our table. We had time to figure out what we wanted to order before we even recieved our drinks. But, no big deal, it was a Sunday night.
I ordered soup, salad and some mashed potatoes. I recieved the soup and salad, but the waitor forgot my potatoes.
There was a long wait for everything and our drinks were refilled once through our meal. When he finally did come around to check on us, he refilled bf's drink but not mine.
When it came time to pay, he handed the BF the check and left. The BF pulled his card out becuase we didn't have enough cash to pay a decent tip. We waited, and waited, and waited, and waited. We decided not to wait anymore and just left the cash. The cash covered the bill, but there was only enough left for a 6% tip.
I felt awful about it. He was nice guy, really polite and not rude at all. And I'm always of the state of mind that there could be soemthing else going on in the kitchen, or maybe he was covering another section. I don't know, I didn't see him waiting for anyone else. You could tell where his section was, it was pretty defined, and there were just us and another couple. So, he wasn't bogged down with customers.
I don't know. I wanted to pay with a card so we could give a good tip, but we wanted to get home, so we just left. I still feel really bad about it. At least we didn't dine and dash(don't worry we would never do THAT)!
