It was hot a day in June , W.T. Grants lunch counter had a sign all the ice tea you can drink 15cents, The year was 1964 , I was 15 years old and I preceded to order me some. After about 5 glasses the waitress told me that I had enough and that she wasn’t going to serve me anymore, I protested” The sign says all you can drink”" she replied back that’s for someone who orders a diner (such as all the flounder or fried shrimp you could eat for 69cents) I said that the sign doesn’t say that and I’m not leaving, she called for the manager who promptly arrived ” he doesn’t want to leave , he said he’s not done drinking ice tea” the manage not wanting to create a scene said ”well how much more ice tea do you want to drink?” I replied ”What time do you close?” it was 4:300pm and I stood there till closing 6:pm. end

Don’t Tip in a Restuarant , Then Get Ready for Spit Soup

My old adage ” The Tip is nothing more than intimidation” You tip a Barber so he don’t mess you up, you tip a super , so god forbid you have a flood he shows up. don’t tip enough or at all when you go out to eat the next time you get spit soup or steak Ala flatulence, In our time rest assured we all had our share of spit soup. Myself and another eater was practicing for the Wing Bowl a while back when the Chinese buffet informed us that we had all the wings he intends to let us have , we complained loudly , we got the wings , but got sick , everyone in the back probably cleared their throat in our food. sadly there isn’t a waiter or kitchen help or chef that hasn’t spit in food, its a long standing restaurant tradition. remember the waiter is the last one to handle your food tip him well and when at a buffet don’t overstay your welcome ..end
