Dear future customers, past customers, anyone going to be a customer in a restaurant soon, don't be an ass. If your server or bartender goes out of their way to make sure you have a wonderful experience, buys you a couple drinks maybe, makes sure that you are their first priority, don't be an ass. Don't be annoyed about how much the wine you ordered costs. If you know there are two Chardonnay wines on the menu and you order the Chardonnay not specified, I think you mean the better one. If you mean house white say house white. If you did not specify what wine to pour you do not complain about being charged three dollar extra for a glass that you have already have downed. It's fine all and all its not my personal money that has to be refunded to you, it's the restaurants. Though it makes me look like a bad worker when I have to refund 10$ to you from the glasses that you drank. Then please do not let me hear you talking to another one of my coworkers about how unhappy

"Fine how are you?" is the programmed response. Instead of telling them, "I am awful, tired covered in ranch and bbq sauce, my feet are tired,my head hurts from not being able to sleep. And I hate this job." But I just smile and take their order, making people feel important is flashing in my face on the computer screen, such a laugh when
