What is this, a fucking cafeteria? I'm sorry, I didn't realize your experience was going to be different based on whether you get to sit at the table you chose or not.
To be honest, I can kind of see your point. If I'm paying 20$ for a club sandwich, I'd want the window seat, too, but really we need a sign that says "Wait To Be Seated".

"Customer Education"
Ten percenters
Hot water and lemon drinkers
They say "bill" when they mean "bills"
They don't know what they want even though I asked if I could take their order and they said yes 1 second ago

"May I refresh your beverage?"
In my ten years of serving, I've never had someone insist that I take his order a certain way. This is the incident that inspired this blog.
So this older man with his friend, you know, probably not trying to be a douche, insists that I take his order by saying "May I refresh your beverage?" and when I completely forget and ask in my own words, he gives me a look, and in a jovial manner, insists I say his line.
He tells me, I kid you not, something about his dead mother and how she always said that. What I really wanted to say was: "Which line should I jump in front of: Bloor-Danforth or Yonge-University?" But instead I just said, "May I refresh your beverage?"
So welcome to Bleach Queen.
