  • Sucky breadstick customers

    Last night we decided to make our monthly trip with all the kids to attempt to go to a restaurant and no one make a mess or drive anyone crazy So we picked Fazolis, pasta for us, pizza for the kids, everyone is happy. Plus their yummy breadsticks are my favorite thing there Although I like the breadsticks I actually order some food that I have to pay for and only partake in 2, maybe 3. I do not hound the people up front for more breadsticks every few minutes and graciously accept them from the person that comes around every so often. This is the story of the customers that did NOT follow those rules(of course)

    We get there, get the children seated, and I go up to order. I am stuck behind a large group of people, 7 to be exact. They all order 1 slice of pizza each. And request extra breadsticks to be put on their tray before the order is even ready. I get my order placed and sit to wait. They bring out our food and one breadstick for each order like usual. As they were bringing it out I noticed a couple of employees sitting down with some food next to us. They were trying to scarf down their food, on break I assume. Shortly after the guy brought a new tray of bread and headed our way since we were closest. The large group, that by the way was being extremely loud and annoying, were eyeballing the basket ready to grab it out of his hand I presume. He gives us a couple more and turns to the employees to give them some more. One of the guys at the large table jumps out of his set and yells, hey we are customers, we need more bread over here. You don't give all the bread sticks to the employees, customers come first!!!!

    Now keep in mind this whole basket was full so even after we got our 5 and they got a couple there were plenty. Those poor girls just muttered, go give them some first. They asked for 3 EACH and emptied that whole basket. The girls did not get anymore at all because they had to get up and go back to work. We counted and the group went up to the counter 3 more times to get more breadsticks for everyone. Basically they paid for a small slice of pizza and then filled themselves up on the free breadsticks. To beat it all instead of cleaning up their mess they left their empty plates and papers and drinks all over the table and just left. The garbage cans are by each door and in the middle of the restaurant for a reason jerks

    I am not even exaggerating here, people at my local Fazolis are like blood-thirsty zombies on steroids when it comes to those damn breadsticks.

    I mean, they are good. Great. Awesome, even. I love them.

    But you'll never, ever see me following...err stalking the employee who is walking around with the basket of breadsticks, you'll never see me demanding more than one or two at a time, and you'll never see me being loud and overly verbal about wanting breadsticks NOW!

    And similar to your story, yes, I have been in line and heard people demanding breadsticks while they wait as well. It's something NICE that they do, it isn't required. Chill the hell out.

        We used to have a Fazolis in town. It closed down and is now a jewelry store.

        I guess low grade, fast-food Italian was just too frou-frou for the hillbillies and rednecks that make up the general population here. Too bad, because I found it a tasty diversion.

        As much as I loved the breadsticks, I never would've sunk to stalking the person walking the dining room with them.

          Well, the good news is that their greed is going straight to their hips! Karma will be catching up to them slowly as their pants size increases.

              They should start charging for extras. It will either stop the bread zombies or ... at least give them some more income?

                yes, a limit on the refills, say 2 or 3, with anything after that costing extra, say $5 or $6 bucks (or more ) depending on just how many bread zombies there are coming in. *bread zombies...snerk...brrrreeeeaaaadd sttiiiiiiickkksssss*

                    The first time I went there, i went with a friend to get food before we went to our weekly D&D game.

                    I let a few people go infront of me cause I didn't know what I wanted and politely appologized for taking my time when I finally decieded to order.

                    As I was waiting for my food, the manager walked up to the counter and started talking with me....(took a few minutes for my brain to register who he was...a fellow ampguardian), and I mentioned that it was my first time eating here. He asked what I ordered, and gave me a recommendation for next time....and when I got my food I found what must of been like 6 or 7 bread sticks with my order!

                      Lol, I didn't want to mention it because I didn't want to be mean but Karma and all her relatives had already caught up to them in that department, that is probably why

                        They're probably the same jerkasses who grab ALL the crab legs at the Chinese buffets, or order a cup of water and fill it with soda at a fast food restaurant. I hate people like that, they ruin it for everyone else and drive these restaurants out of business.

                          My Fazoli's doesn't even have an employee wander around with the basket anymore. You have to go up to the counter and ask for more breadsticks. I suspect the bread zombies are to blame.

                          And those breadsticks are like crack. I probably could eat a whole basket all by myself.

                            I'm jealous. And though I have to admit, I'm a diet-holic (I love my diet Dr. Pepper and diet Pepsi), and I do frequently ask for refills, I'm seldom nasty or demanding about it. But then again, I used to hang around restaurants all the time, so I watched what waitresses go through in an average day.
                            Customers should always be served . . . to the nearest great white.

                              At my work the onions are free. I distincly remember one customer asking for, "extraextraextraextraextraextra onions on that burrito." Some people are poor. Other people are just cheap
