ok i admit. i'm a hypocrite
*note:something crappy happened today.
my boss told me that i can't take my full 1 week holiday with my bf
cos that week falls on easter.
which is a holiday for the restaurant hence all staff get off work
except for the poor interns.
in short:
we have breakfast duty.
at least i still have 5 days in franceThe restaurant was full yesterday.
and with full.
i don't mean full.
but
overflowedduring our busiest time.
these two people came
and when we told them that the restaurant was full.
they decided to eat in the lobby.
which means that on top of what i have to do in the restaurant,
i have to bring table cloth, napkin,bread plate, glasses, cutleries AND bread to the lobby for them.
okay so it's part of my job
they are hungry.
i'm not blaming them.
my boss took the order
and when the main course came, i served them.
the lady took one look at her dish and
said to me in a semi-indignant-haughty way
"i can tell that that's not well done"and i replied:
"would you like me to change it for you ma'am?"I thought:
Oh for pete's sake...if you're really hungry you can eat it. Seriously, african descendant? think of the kids in your country"anyways i took her meal back and told the chef EXACTLY what she wanted.
"very well done" a.k.a "bien bien cuit"
and when i took it back later
(mind you we were still full)
she looked at it.
sniffed
and said
"okay,i will TRY to eat it"as i turned to leave
she asked ME TO STAY AND WATCH HER EAT IT.
just to make sure that she can.
thank god i didn't try to poison her.
she made this big show of putting it to her lips, pulling it away and making a face.
i tried to look really sorry and said
"it is alright?"but what i really wanted to say was
"OMG. just eat it already. how the hell did you get so chubby if you do that for every damn meal?!of course, we waitresses are very good
at acting.
so we don't show what we asre thinking inside.
for example.
in the morning when people ask me for cappucino.
(we have to make them manually)
i say
of course, no problemi think
wth? is normal coffee too plain for you? spoilt princessi know.
i'm a hypocrite lol
