True Story

Hostess leads two guests to a table on the patio that is near the door, a.k.a. not the best table we have.

Hostess: Here is your seat.

Guest 1: Why are you seating us near the garbage? (side note: there is no garbage there)

Guest 2: We want to sit over there. (points to a table nearby with a reserved sign on it)

Hostess: I'm sorry that table is reserved for another guest.

Guest 1: You're lying. You can't reserve tables on the patio!

When another server leaves without doing their sidework (and I end up doing it)

Little girl tugs at my apron while I'm taking the tables order

Mother: Oh, sorry about her! She just likes you.

Me: It's no problem. She is so cute! *waves*

Mother: (to daughter) Aw sweetie, do you want to be a waitress when you grow up? Only while you are still in school obviously.

How many times has this happened?

Guest: Could you please get me a glass of water.

Me: No problem! Be right back.

*Returns and places water in front of guest*

Me: Here you go! (Guest is chatting and doesn't notice.)

*Comes back five minutes later. The glass is untouched.*

Guest: Could you please get me the water I asked for?

When guests seat themselves

Guest: [angrily] Would someone please bring us some menus??!!

What I think: Well maybe if you had gone to the hostess and waited five seconds for them to seat you, YOU WOULD GET YOUR MENUS!

What I say: [forced smile] Sorry about that. I'll bring them right over for you.
