You don’t have an owner, you are a person. I don’t get it when people in the restaurant industry, subconsiously or not, put themselves in a place where “ownership” seems to be placed on them.

I think it is jsut a pet peeve of mine when a statement like that is made, you can own a business, you can own a restaurant. But certainly not the people who make it a sucess with you.

Hahahe. What a lazy person, not wanting to cook for the family themself. She probably waited last minute and Publix ran out. Hah!

The crazy part is that so many places offer entire holiday dinners – whole turkeys, hams, roasts, whatever, plus all the sides and dessert. All you have to do is haul it home and heat it up, which is precisely what she seemed to want from you. Your clever approach of your GM (”Say no to what I”m about to ask…”) is genius.

Hope your holiday was all that you wanted it to be, minus the occasional nutcases!

Well, oh my goodness…. Can I phone in an order for a turkey, and then another order for a side of mashed potatoes, and another for the stuffing? Maybe management would do it for me that way….

What? No…

Oh. Okay…

Ha. The audacity of some people….

PS: Love this blog, RG!

Well if you can’t give me a turkey to go on Thanksgiving, I’ll just have to call back on Christmas Day…

Tampa–Hello Creative Loafing!

Augs–No sneaking. Staff dinner after work. And people are just people, albeit nervy!

Pohlito–Why didn’t I suggest that to her?

Jali–Happy TG, my friend. Thinking of you in Dallas, when I can’t be there. Show everyone my photo!

Katie–Isn’t that funny? I love the power of that course of action. Not sure what my GM thinks, but he goes along with it.

I used to do that with my parents when I didn’t want to do something when I was younger.

You are a master of the diplomacy. I say THE to add that extra cache the word requires in this circumstance.

You made a push goofball feel special by calling her back. Outstanding.

Hugs right back atcha!
