Dining Out - August 2007

I just got back from a quick stop at Wendy's and am VERY disappointed! All we did was ask for ketchup and you would have thought that the employee was going to have to make it from scratch. She sighed and shrugged and basically threw a fit to give us 3 packets of ketchup. When we asked for a couple more, you would have thought the world was coming to an end. This is not the 1st time it has happened. When did Wendy's become too busy to actually help the customers and give them what they came for? Has anyone had similar experiences? If so, how did you deal with them?

I have contacted the Wendy's that I visited and told them of the situation, but because this isn't the first time, I am also contacting Corporate. I don't think it's too much to ask for to be treated kindly at a place I am spending my money.

I am curious. I worked for a pizza place. I make a good, accurate pies. I also make pizzas as fast as possible remembering customers in mind. I would like the delivery drivers to deliver pizzas as fast as possible and so I try my best to make pizzas quick. Drivers also get paid per hour and also gt paid for mileage. After I do all that for customers why do only drivers get tips for being there on time, bringing good pizza, or for giving any extra items.

Taco Bell ran them out of business, but Del Taco was a thousand times better, just a little more expensive.

Was it rude of the server at Shari's Restaurant to cop an attitude at me when she was walking by me and I've asked her that if she had a moment would she give me a refill on my drink and then she would cop an attitude at me telling me that she was busy cause she was on her way to serve another customer?

As soon as my server copped an attitude at me my face instantly turned red and I've felt humiliated by her attitude, then she later apologized for her attitude and she told me that she doesn't like it when people are calling her when she's on her way to help another customer.

Plus another issue I have is that they give you your bill soon after your food arrives and none of the other restaurants do that, unfortunately the incident happened at around 10:30-11:00pm on a weeknight and she was the only server there

My friend says he can get me on there. I'm thinking if I make enough money, I can quit school and move out. I'm tired of my Mom and Dad treating me like a little kid, and I hate school even more.

I love this place. I go there everyday with my colleagues for lunch - every single day, and have been going for months now. The place is so crowded that its crazy! I think its the good tasting food, but still, everybodys gets bored of eating the same thing every single day. I dont understand!

You know how Denny’s used to give you a free meal on your birthday? Are there any other restaurants that still do that for adults?

Hulk Hogan goes to McDonald's and when he orders his big meal, whatever it is, the person who cooks the fries forget his fries. Hulk Hogan than gets all mad and tears up his shirt in front of them and says "Watcha gonna do brother, when Hulkamania runs wild on you!?"


And then Hulk Hogan hulks up and starts wailing away at the employees and managers and then swings away at the person who forgot his fries and finishes him off with a legdrop.

Speaking generally, why is it that people always stare at you when you're in a restaurant - its bad manners to stare at people yet they still feel no shame. Also it kind of spoils your evening a little. Its ok to look now and again but constant staring is just annoying, especially when you are trying to enjoy yourself. It makes you paranoid - its like non-verbal intimidation.

Can anyone give a SERIOUS explaination of why you think these people are staring and a possible solution - yes, I know I could just ignore them but that didn't work.

I like to eat out alone, which means I order less than a big party and therefore there is less tip for the waitress. I notice at some restaurants they rotate who takes the next group. So when I walk in I'm just one person and the waitress might not like that as opposed to say a party of 4.

So my question is, do waitresses hate guys who walk into restaurants and eat alone? I hope not as I would like to continue eating out but then again I don't want any hateful energy directed toward me so if that's the case I'll just stop.

Thanks for your thoughts.

So I was talking to a guy who worked for corporate at HollyWood Video and he was telling me how he thinks that the company will go out of business within the next six months, because of competition from netflix and blockbuster. So a couple days go by and then I think of an Idea that might help Hollywood video. Dinner and a movie. I thought that they could team up with a fast food chain like Dominos and let people get a movie with their food and then mail it back or take it to the store and get a new one...Now here's where the law suit come in... I submitted my idea to hollywood on its website and I got a return that it was the customer service area at hollywood, but they were going to send it to the right area...Thats all I heard about it, until today. I woke up to the alarm clock, and all I hear is Mcdonald commercial. Something about a red box and hollywood video, Then I put it together and they are now offering dinner and a movie at Mcdonalds with Hollywood, it sounds like my idea.
