Spinach

One time I worked at a place where we had this huge, industrial-sized fan at the front door during the summer. For reasons unbeknownst to me, this lady Pat from a pub next door walks through our doors with a plate of spinach.
Peter goes, "Watch, the spinach is going to fly all over the place when she walks by that fan,"
And it did and Pat was shocked and Peter and I died laughing.

Fighting with coworkers in front of customers

Sarah and I got into a fight at the door, both standing there with menus in our arms, arguing over which section to seat a party in.
"This way," she said.
"No, this way," I said.
"No, this way,"
"No, this way!"
I gave up. But yeah.

Broadway: Innes & Cyrville

I used to work at a bar. This lady who had a baby strapped to her back was drinking til last call and at like 2am, the cops ended up coming to break up a fight or something and she asked me to smuggle her out the kitchen. I did. I work for the people.

Dunn's:

We have walls that roll up so it's like open on the sidewalk basically but there are also huge barriers like this tall, half-wall thing. These kids younger than me got 1 poutine to share and didn't tip me and then camped in my booth so I was pissed but then this robber guy with a shaved head runs up, reaches over the gates and jacks the kid's backpack.
The kid cried out, "my backpack!" and this other kid, not my table, jumps up and chases the thief down the street but comes back later, empty-handed. That's what you get when you don't tip. I laughed.
