Or maybe it was a line in a comedy film, I forget…

Let us form a pact, a bond, an aliance if you will. Once a month you come to my place, spend the day as a normal everyday customer. Everytime you see me in a situation where ‘ what I WANT to say to the pompous arse in front of me’ gets overuled by what I “have to say while grinning and bearing it……..You will step in, and tell them what I am really thinking but cant say. Once a month I will in return visit you at your place and provide you with the very same service.

For example:
Guest: I would like that table for twenty by the window ”

You: “oh and what name was that reservation under?”

Guest: “No, I didn’t make a reservation, but I still want that table,,,,and in twenty minutes.”

At this point I will step in

Me: “I am sorry, did I just over hear you telling this young lady you needed a table for twenty, and you need it in twenty minutes?”

guest: “um yes that’s right,”

Me: “and you didn’t make a reservation?”

Guest: “well um no, but hey I am the mayor you know?”

At this point I will look over at you, and mentally send you various choices of responses……..wait for you to pick the one of your choosing and respond.

A) “sir does the term S.O.L mean anything to you?”
B)”Sir, my mom used to tell me, to ‘poop’ in one hand, ‘want’ in the other and see which one filled up first.
C)”hmmmm 20 people,,,,that table,,,,,,,no reservation……just how stupid ARE you?”
D) “Mayor huh? wow,,,,,well tsk tsk,,,,,,,I didn’t vote for you……I was worried I might be making the wrong choice, but if you are this stupid I see I worried for nothing.

see how it works? Let me know.
