Random At Work

Category: restaurant, work

*Restaurant phone rings and I picked up*

ME: Good afternoon, this is Shitty Restaurant. How can I help you?

CUSTOMER: Hiya I would like to book a table for this evening please.

ME: Sure. Can I have your name please?

CUSTOMER: It’s Joel. Can you remember me? I’m the one who likes to eat red snapper. That last time I came in I had an absolutely delicious snapper, can you remember?

… … *speechless for 2 seconds* … …

ME: I’m sure you did. Alright, looking forward to see you this evening. Thank you, bye.

WTF??!!???!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*In the evening*

*Greeted customer at door front*

ME: Hello, table for two sir?

CUSTOMER: Hiya, I’m the red snapper man!

Tried really hard to squeeze the most welcoming fake smile at this lunatic.

ME: Righto. Mr. Joel the red snapper man. This way please.

What on earth was he thinking that I could really remember him by the lamest description anyone could possibly utter? Yet for the sake of my job, I had to pretend like his best friend and stood by the table listening to his fish talks for 10 minutes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*Three hours later and Joel paid the bill*

JOEL: Thank you so much for your excellent service. I really enjoyed the snapper today.

He then tucked 20 pounds note into my hand as gratitude charge.

ME: Thanks so much sir. The next time you come in we’ll have the freshest fish ready for you. Good night sir.
